clean rooms,typical free breakfast,free shuttle passes front door.

Jan must be off season. All of the regular chains are priced in the $20's. This Days Inn was $25 plus tax. It is on the main drag north of the causeway. Near by is the bird watching center (excellent) and just a little further are several turn offs to free beaches. The room was good. The only drawback is for parking of large vehicles. Next time I plan to stay longer.

Clean room, good customer service. Breakfast need some improvement. Had issue with lights and sink; maintanence came in and took care of it.

I wanted to get a room and the front desk person made a copy of my id and credit card
without asking. I asked him why the copy. He said that it's policy and all hotels in the island do it (a lie by the way, Island inn next door doesn't copy, neither motel 6). I asked how long they keep it, he said for 7 years. I couldn't scratch my drivers license number or some of the numbers on my credit card. When I refused on leaving the credit card copy, he denied me a room.
So you go stay there, they keep your data in file FOR 7 YEARS for anyone to steal. I think that's dumb, where do they even keep seven years of paper copies. I've been in places where they copy the id but they let you scratch the id number and when you leave, you can ask them to shred your copy.
I thought this practice was sketchy. Stay somewhere else, a place where your identity can't be stolen lol. Asking for the credit card is excessive, his explanation was that it's so costumers can't argue to the credit company that they didn't make those charges and get a refund. So to save the trouble of dealing with those kind of guests, they annoy everyone else. Nice Days Inn SPI, that's the spirit of customer service.
