My husband and I reserved this hotel with intentions on having an affordable, average hotel to stay in while we took our son to the nearby college (Coastal Carolina) for Orientation. We have stayed at the Days Inn brand hotels before and they seemed to be fine, but not this one!
Upon checking into the hotel, a foreigner, possibly indian or arab was behind the counter to check us in. The hotel appeared to be dirty, especially the walls and carpet. It's is nothing like the pictures showed on website.
The hotel room had very poor lighting and was dark. It was not very clean in the bathroom and the air vents were covered with black dust.
Day 1, we unloaded our luggage and left to go the the college and spent the whole day out. Upon arriving back to our room after dinner, my husband saw a roach on the wall and killed it. We were so exhausted from the drive and the long day out, that we just went to bed.
Day 2, we got up early and left for another full day at the school. Once again, after dinner we returned to our hotel room to relax and watch tv and to get some rest before our long drive back home the next day. Again, my husband spotted another cockroach on the wall. He got up off of the bed to kill the bug and spotted another one, and then another one, and another one. And at this point, we realized that our room was totally infested with cockroaches. They were in our shoes, luggage and everywhere. We then decided, that there was no way that we could sleep soundly knowing the bugs were crawling all over the place, so we decided to check out early at 10:30 p.m.
We took 2 of the cockroaches to the front desk, and asked for a refund, which was refused to us by the front desk clerk because we had reserved the room through hotels.com and not from them personally, therefore they could not refund our money.
We checked out anyways and went next door to the BP Gas Station to get a cup of coffee for our long ride home and there were 3 other men that my husband knew were staying at the hotel also. He then informed them of the cockroaches and we got our coffee and the 3 men left to go check their room for bugs. We then drove 10 hours back to our home in florida after having no sleep, since we didn't get our hotel money back and couldn't afford another hotel. I would not recommend this hotel to ANYONE. (Also there was a strip club on the other side of the hotel, so what's that tell you).
