I've made it a point to always stay at Days Inn for the overall best value and have ALWAYS found DI to meet or exceed my expectations. I've been a traveling construction worker for years and am used to hotles that have less than desirable conditions. Also I'm not too picky when it comes to a place to sleep. The Days Inn in Clute, TX has pretty much turned me off. First off the picture of the front of the hotel on the website is very deceiving - it may have a nice new looking front but the back side and the interior is very much lacking. I should have known something was up when I walked up to the front door and seen thay had done a very poor paint job of the aluminum front doors. Second - The room was dirty and smelled, there was a klennex next to the bed that hadn't bene picked up from the previous tenant, (lord knows what was on it and I couldn't get this out of me head the whole time). Third, the breakfast sucked. We got there at 7am - out of coffee and juice, told the front desk. Came back at 8am and 8:30am both times out of coffee and juice - told the front desk both times. This time he "reset" the juice machine, but it still just dispensed water. Suffice it to say, the only good thing is it was only for 1 night.
