This hotel/? is a the worst I ever came across, Days Inn are not doing themselves any favour by having their name over this place.$1.00 a night would be too dear.

People here talk bad on this hotel. Let me just say that the crackheads are friendly and for the most part non-threatening. The management was glad to assist and public transportation down town was nice. There was also a lizard in the room, but he too was for the most part, non threatening. The staff provided us with a delectable spread of glazed hams promptly at six, the breakfast's designated start time. Hotel was also selling champagne,,, yum. Overall, a buddy system recommended good time.

Like others have stated the hotel IS located in a shady part of philadelphia. It is NOT reassuring to guests that every parking space has a sign that reminds them they are not responsible for stolen items. It also is not too reassuring that there IS a huge bullet proof glass that separates you from the clerks. I do have to say though that I did enjoy my stay there.

Me and my friends books rooms there for the new years and we got there early to check in, I am glad we did. The first room we were told was our has a HORRIBLE vomit smell, like one that somebody got drunk and puked in. We walked in the room, and then walked out and requested a new room. The clerks and staff were very nice and immediatly gave us another room and showed it to us, and even asked if it was ok, and offered to show us other rooms if it was not satisfactory.

The room was clean, and I have no complaints. Our room did have an alarm clock, and i beleive it is standard that all of the rooms have one. The heater worked well and did not smell, and the bathroom was clean however I did not use the shower.

I also recommend this because the clerks were very nice. Me and my date were going to a party and were supposed to have printed out our tickets at home. I did but she did not, so after we realized this we asked the clerks if we could use the internet. The clerk took us into their break room/office and let us print out our ticket. They were very nice with the limited english they spoke (maybe it was their accents, but very nice and receptive).

They also hired a night time security guard since there is nothing keeping random people from walking in and going into the hotel.

All in all I recommend this place for business trips, but not pleasure or family outings. The hotel is also difficult to get to being that roosevelt blvd is a 8 lane strangely divided highway.

I am amazed that this hotel is allowed to carry a Days Inn brand. The signs in the parking lot remind you that your car may be damaged or broken into. Once at the front lobby we had to talk to the representative through BULLET PROOF GLASS - thicker than I have seen at a bank teller window. While cancelling my room reservation (because of the dirtyness and fear) and talking through the small holes in the bullet proof glass some guy walked in and yelled - " HEY, I need a room for 2 hours" then proceeded to the window next to us and booked the room. YEIKS ---trust me run from this unsafe hovel. Don't trust the pictures on their website
