I booked a stay here during my road trip along the coast and it turned out to be a bit of a mixed bag. The absolute best part about this property is the incredible location because you step right out of the building and onto the beautiful sandy beach. It is also super close to some awesome historic landmarks and great local spots to grab food after a long afternoon in the sun. My room itself was decently clean and basic, but you can definitely tell the building is getting a little older and could use some updates to the bathroom fixtures and carpets. I also noticed the walls are pretty thin, so I woke up a couple of times during the night from the sound of people walking down the hallway. It is a completely fine, budget-friendly option if your main goal is to spend every waking hour directly by the ocean, but do not expect a high-end luxury resort experience.
The stay was great. Check in was easy. Rooms were very clean. Had a problem with the fridge in the room, as soon as we let a hotel staff know , we had a new one in 5 min.! Short walk to the beach, right over the sand dune. We had a great time. Breakfast was also good and hot every morning . Will be back!
ππ¨β οΈ Allergy Warning β Strong Bleach Smell and Cleanliness Concern
Unfortunately, we had to cancel our reservation at this property after entering the room. As soon as I walked in, there was an extremely strong bleach/chemical smell. I have a bleach allergy, so this immediately became a serious health concern for me.
ππ¨We also encountered a cockroach at the property. Unfortunately, I did not take a photo, but I want to be honest about what we experienced.ππ¨
I explained my concern, but because we had booked through Booking.com, I was told that there was not much they could do because it was a third-party reservation. I understand that we booked through a third-party website, but when it comes to a guestβs health and an allergy concern, I believe it should still be taken seriously.
For me, health comes before money. Because of these concerns, we decided not to stay and canceled the reservation. We then chose to stay at Spark by Hilton, which was a much better option for us.
I am sharing this review especially for anyone with allergies or chemical sensitivities. If you have a bleach or chemical allergy, please be very careful and ask questions about the cleaning products and room conditions before booking. π¨π
ππ¨I also noticed that some information online may not accurately represent the current condition of this property. I hope management will consider investing in improvements to the rooms, cleanliness, and pest control. A few meaningful improvements could make a big difference for future guests.π¨π
I did not cancel because of the booking website itself. I canceled because the condition of the room and the strong chemical smell were not something I could safely tolerate.
Throughly enjoyed our stay here. We typically stay at Marriots and this was our first time staying at a Days Inn. For the price, quality, and location it was such a steal.
The location was prime with the beach was literally at our doorsteps, any within driving distance you could hit up any popular restaurants, the state park, museums and more. The rooms we're clean and beds comfy. The staff were amazing and super kind and the free breakfast was pretty solid. Couldn't ask for a better place to stay over Easter weekend. Would be considering other Days Inn after our stay here π
Great location to walk out the hotel to the beach. Stayed once in the summer and once in the winter, loved it both times. Most recently came on a cold weekend in January. Room was clean and warm as soon as we checked in. Beds are comfy and the shower head makes it feel like the water is hugging you. Every room has a covered balcony with seats and a table to relax outside. The staff are very nice and helpful. The breakfast had delicious hot food.
