“Not impressed”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

I booked this hotel through the Days Inn 1-800 reservation # at the last minute (normally, I would do my research first). The hotel was located off a steep ramp below a road. This has to be the worst piece of real estate in Scranton. The lobby was dark, worn, and did not smell pleasant. The employee who checked us in was not the friendlies and did not want to honor their promotional rate. The hallways were dark as well. The room was clean; however, the ceilings in the room - especially the bathroom - were very low. The room made me feel very claustrophobic. The view was the worst ever - a roof with air conditioners, vents, etc. I didn't have breakfast since they only offered carbs - white flour & sugar. I didn't check the pool or other facilities because I was afraid I'd have nightmares. We never left a hotel this early in the morning - ever!

“Decent stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

I booked this hotel on Hotwire and had second thoughts after seeing all the reviews on here. After deciding to add an extra night before we even got there I was even more worried. However when we checked it we realized that most of the bad reviews on here are lies. Yes, it is an older building and needs some little work here and there (carpet baseboard was coming off in the closet area) but all in all it is a nice hotel. They see a lot of traffic from the natural gas workers in the area and families traveling through the area like our family did so yes it gets a lot of visitors. The breakfast was decent (waffles, cereal, bananas, donuts, juice). I would stay again and no I do not work for the hotel. I'm just a stay at home mom who's husband is on active duty in the Marine Corps. lol

Room Tip: We stayed by the desk so it was very quiet

“Disgusting”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2011

Not only was it filthy, it was dark, gloomy and weird people were hanging out in the lobby. I slept fully dressed, shoes included. The bar was disgusting, too. Everything I touched was sticky. Walked to the front desk to check out, a guy came out from the back with his head down and turned around and went to the back again, totally ignoring us.

“OK for the price”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 October 2011

My room was clean, the bed was extremely comfortable, and the staff was friendly. The hotel could use some upgrading. I wasn't crazy about the bar being downstairs. Because of the bar patrons, the parking lot was always filled to capacity and they usually got the best parking spaces, while the hotel patrons had to park way in the back of the building. Also, the bar allowed smoking and I think the smoke found its way up through the hotel. The parking lot could also use more lighting.

Dear Guest,
Thank you for taking your time to share your comments.
Our hotel is fully occupied every night; we have many repeated customers and long-term guests. Our parking lot is large enough to accommodate hotel and lounge guests. We have one acre additional parking for 100 cars on the back of the hotel building. We are sorry that guests who came later have to park where space is available.
Thank you again for your comments and sorry for the inconvenience.
We hope to serve your future travel need.
Sincerely,
Siva Myneni.

“Wasn't bad for the price”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 September 2011

Staff was friendly. The place is a bit worn but not dirty, with the exception of the elevator which was filthy. Our room the was worn but clean, spacious and had a nice jacuzzi tub in it. Awkward but clean bathroom. Old, beat furniture, but comfortable bed. Nice pool. I will agree the parking lot is treacherous. The continental breakfast was sufficient, nothing fancy.

For the price, we would stay again, but don't expect anything more than basic. Great location; lots of shopping and restaurants close by.

Room Tip: Room with Jacuzzi tub a bit small but nice.
