“Horrible!! Demanded Money Back Within 20 Minutes of Arriving”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2012

Checked in, there's a dog wandering around barking with no leash in the guest area. OK, that's a bid odd. Checked in room, went to get ice, no ice bucket. Asked for an ice bucket, employee states they dont' have any extra. "no I'm not asking for extras, just 1." She says, "We're out." Looked at pillows, they smelled and looked like dirt and grease. Dusty, not cleaned, stuff slattered on the wall, windows. Then heard a constant beep that wouldn't stop. Called the front desk "Oh, that's our air freshener in the hallway, it's beeps every once in a while." Um..can you turn it off, the beep is very loud and annoying. "No, we can't disable them."

Pool doesn't work. Nothing works.

OK Zero for 5, I'm outta here. Demanded my money back. I had to get a bit aggressive before they would refund the credit card and i made sure I got my receipt and had it signed by the employee.

Don't go here.

“DONT STAY HEAR”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 May 2012

This Hotel is GROSS!!! The staff that work there, don't have a care in the world. All they care about is getting $$$$ for their over priced hunk of junk Hotel. They are ALL rude, and don't want you to bug them cause of being to busy with "friends" that are hanging out around that place. I rather have slept in my car, then have had paid over $100.00 for that smelly room. The pool is closed, and has been for a long time. Must be because they are to cheap to put any $$$ into it, cause they sure are not putting the $$$$ into the rooms. The doors don't shut, mold in the bathroom, dirty beds, dirty carpet, no towels, and if your lucky you might get a few squares of Toilet paper. VERY BAD PLACE, would never stay or bring anyone their!!! The owner NEEDS to do something about that place and all the staff/managers.

Stayed April 2012, travelled on business

“Plan Ahead--Dont Get Stuck Here!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 April 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Should have read the reviews! My husband and I decided to go to Hinkley for a quick overnight. The casino hotel was full, and the Days Inn was the only available property. READ MY LIPS...NEVER AGAIN!! $135.00 per night and I wouldnt even give it one star if I didnt have to. The sheets were threadbare; the sinks had mold in them; the halls hadnt seen a vacume in several days; ice machine didnt work and pool was shut down. Somebody ought to call Days Inn Corporate and get these folks franchise license revoked.

Room Tip: Here's a tip...there are no good rooms

Our pool is down for severe problems that could endanger guests, so this is why it is shut down at this time. Our rooms are cleaned on a daily basis and the halls are vacuumed as often as can due to the amount of guests in the building at one time. We have a working ice machine and other vending machines in the building. Our staff is committed to making your stay enjoyable. If you have any questions or concerns, please call me directly at 320-384-7751.

“LOOK ELSE WHERE”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 April 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I stayed at Days Inn in Hinkley for one night. The AAA price $112.00! WAY TOO MUCH FOR THIS TYPE OF ROOM and HOTEL.
Towels: Old and worn out.
Matresses: General Manager claims 1 year old.. I stripped the bed and they are older than one year old!
Matress Cover: Stained
Pillows: OLD and STAINED
One pillow missing pillow case
Cleaning staff not cleaning rooms well. Dirt under beds and in the corners.
Air Conditioner/ heat works but not well.
Bathroom Fan: Could not run it because it sounds like it is going to explode.
NO Pool: It is too costly for them to fix. It has to be completely redone...Dug Up and Rebuilt.
Hot Tub: Working, but I didn't use it.
Continential Breakfast: VERY WEAK. Biskets and gravy...NO GRAVY! They ran out. Cerial, juice, toast, apples, mini-muffins, milk. Coffee ran out in dinning area had to go down the hall by lobbey for coffee.
Evening Staff very friendly
Morning Staff appeared to be friendly but didn't ask how my stay was. They appeared to be under staffed for check out time.
Weekend Room Price was way over priced: $112.00/includes tax.
Casio Weekend Rate: 82.00/ includes tax and rooms very clean and up-to-date. Just have to book early.
I have stayed at this Days in once before and they told me the same story. We are working on improvements. WHEN???
I most likely will not stay here in the future!

Room Tip: GO ELSE WHERE! I wish I had photos to share!
