The Good

  • Discounted options
  • Amenities
  • Rewards program
The Days Inn accommodation services are geared towards servicing active, outdoor, or adventure-seeking individuals or families. Typically, Days Inn locations can be found near outdoor attractions, but there are also properties in the hearts of larger cities. Typically, Days Inn charges less than the economy or luxury hotels, providing a discounted option for travelers. Despite being labeled as a "budget" hotel, there are amenities guests can appreciate considering the lower nightly rates. While amenities and other services may vary depending on the location, travelers can typically expect:
  • Daybreak Breakfast: the Days Inn provides a complimentary breakfast complete with oatmeal, yogurt, fresh fruit, and more.
  • Free Wi-fi: guests can stay connected with free Wi-fi available in hotel rooms and common areas.
  • Suite Upgrade: at Days Inn and Suites locations, guests can upgrade their room to include separate living and sleeping areas.
  • Pool/Fitness Center: most location provide at least one or more of these services, but travelers will need to check with each location.
As part of the Wyndham umbrella of brands, Days Inn guests can take advantage of the Wyndham rewards program. The points system allows for travelers to earn free nights, flights, and gift cards with each qualified reservation/stay. Since its founding, Days Inn was able to expand relatively quickly.

The Bad

  • Inconsistencies
  • Cancellation policy
Days Inn is a franchised operation. Due to the business structure, Days Inn locations do not all necessarily offer the same amenities or services. While each hotel strives to provide similar positive experiences for guests, there are things that differ from location to location. Guests should be aware that there may be inconsistencies such as:
  • Pet Friendliness: some locations allows pets to stay for free, others require a pet fee for clean up, and then there are those that do no allow pets at all
  • Room Choices: some Days Inn locations offer suites to their guests while others only provide the same standard rooms
  • Cancellation: for more information regarding the cancellation policy, see below.
  • Check-in/Check-out times: guests will need to contact the location directly to get specifics on times
There has been some confusion surrounding the Days Inn cancellation policy. Since they are individually owned and operated businesses through the franchise, policies can also differ depending on the location. There is not a set number of hours in advance a guest needs to notify Days Inn regarding a cancellation, nor is there a stringent refund policy. If a traveler needs to cancel their reservation for whatever reason, he or she will need to contact the location directly for policy specifics.

We reserved a room at the days inn in Jackson TN 4/2/22 for one night with a king size bed. The lady on the phone said she would send an e-mail to us for confirmation and directions. Never received it. Looked it up on our phones and upon arrival clerk was very helpful. When we went to the room it was 2-queen beds. Went back to office. Clerk was very obliging about getting a room with king bed. Went to room-it looked as though someone had dumped a bunch of water in bathroom around stool and tub had some gritty substance in it that was very dark. Went back to office. Clerk gave us another room. He went with us this time and it was a king room but tub was like the other one just not quite as dark substance in bottom of tub. So we went to another room only it was a double queen and tub was gritty also. We decided to take that room. Upon further checking the room the tile was broken in bathroom door way keeping the door from going shut easily. Plug-in between beds was broken, curtains were in very bad shape. Remote wasn’t anywhere to be found-thought to pull the t v stand out and it was in cobwebs behind the stand.😠. Mirror was dirty-looked like someone had used a dirty clothe on it. It was probably the worst room we have ever had. Outside was broken glass of some sort and very dirty . It was not appealing in way! If I were to rate the hotel it would be in the negative. Not a satisfied customer. The clerk did all he could do with what he had to work with even though he was upset with me for being so picky. Days Inn is NOT on our list to visit any more!

Filthy hotel rooms!!! Staff lies and steals. Area code changes occurred when I was there and they added a new zip code in the same area as the hotel. They charged me 50 cent more to call 4 blocks away. What scammers! Karma bait.

BLECH. Hate Days Inn. I've stayed in this a couple times - once for a family reunion and once out of desperation during a hard financial time. The first time for a family reunion we checked out early and checked into a Marriott. You can't get a good night's sleep in these hotels, and they're pretty trashy and dirty. EW EW EW.

I would not recommend the Days Inn, even with its lower price. The rooms are dirty, beds stiff, and I was worried my car was going to get broken into.
