• Very friendly, helpful, family oriented hotel. They did everything to make us feel comfortable. Enjoyed it a lot.
• Nothing.

“The staff was very helpful and friendly. They offered us extra blankets and towels for the room which we accepted and appreciated. They even gave us free tickets to a nearby waterpark for our entire group for each day we stayed. That saved us a lot of money with the children. The continental breakfast was very good and appreciated. It was nice to feed everyone right at the hotel for free before we headed out to start the day. The homemade waffles were especially liked by the kids. The indoor and outdoor pools and hot tub were kept up nicely and clean and had long extended hours for use. Overall, we liked our stay very much and would return.”

• Convenience.
• Room smelled of mold & musty.

“Accommodations were ok. Staff was very friendly & accommodating. I should have asked for a room on 2nd floor. Maybe it could not have had the musty mold smell in it.”

• I didn't see any terrorists there.
• The whole experience. Don't fall for it. Stay away.

“Heed this warning. This place is a joke. The rooms are nasty and the front desk help could care less. This place is truly the 'Sanford and Son Inn' of Wisconsin Dells. I had never been to the Dells before, but now that I have I learned a lot about what not to do. We went as a basketball group for a tournament. 1/2 of our group stayed at the Days Inn and half at the Raintree. Now I don't know a lot, but I can promise you that the Rain Tree is superior to this place. I wouldn't let my mother in law sleep in this dump. Moldy nasty smell, unclean, no microwave in my single room. The Sundeck paint is peeled and the carpet is pulled up and nasty. There were 7 broken TV's laying outside this place by a back garage looking structure; two broken computer monitors and 3 used, discarded tires. The continental breakfast was horrible and my son, who will eat anything, wouldn't take bite #2 of his waffles. I can not say enough things about this place to warn off the blue-collar worker. I can assure you that I thought long and hard about posting this. But after further thought I say this: On a stack of bibles, this information is true and correct to the best of my ability.”

• Staff courtesy and professionalism.
• Mold.

“I have rarely had any issues with Days Inn establishments. This should, after all, be covered by their insurance. I realize that this region was hit hard recently and I am sorry for their losses. However, the room that I was originally checked into was not fit for man or beast. The furniture was severely water marked and the room smelled strongly of mold, which as you know is TOXIC. The only improvement that had been made so far was the addition of a dehumidifier inside the room, which was not even running when I arrived.”

• Pool, hot tub and tanning.
• Room poor condition, bathroom dirty, terrible breakfast.

“This hotel had probably the best pool and hot yub and a fantastic feature with the tanning beds. However, this had to have been the worst room I have ever stayed in. The bed was in extremely poor condition and way out of date. The bathroom was far from clean and the carpet was well beyond its life span. The continental breakfast was far from a true continental breakfast. There were waffles, toast (no butter), coffee, and juice ' no hot or cold cereal, no fruit, no pastries. Overall I was very disappointed with this location compared of other Days Inn locations I have stayed in. This trip was for pleasure as it was the first time I have visited the Wisconsin Dells and will certainly be returning for all the things to do in the area but the odds of me staying at the Days Inn are extremely low. I travel on business at least 4 times a month for 2-4 nights at a time and will be reconsidering my accommodations when planning those trips based on this visit.”

• Delicious waffles for the continental breakfast.
• Rude service, extremely small bathrooms, dirty room.

“When we first went into our hotel room it was freezing colder in the room than it was outside. We notified the front desk twice before they reluctantly changed our room, asking US if we turned on the heat. (Isn't that their job?) The man at the front desk told me he was too busy to see if our new room had the heat turned on. The rooms at this hotel had a funny smell and the floors were not cleaned (in both rooms). There was trash under the beds and on the floor. The beds were stained and saggy. The hot tub was too hot. Very uncomfortable. There was no change machine for the vending machine. The soda machines were located outside. You had to straddle the toilet to close the bathroom door. The kicker when I notified the owner of the service we had received, he was only worried that our first room was very warm. 12 hours after we had left it. I would have thought one of the employees would have checked to see if everything was working properly when we left it. He never apologized. He showed no regard for the poor service. I will never stay there again and will warn anyone going to the Dells, not to stay at the Day's Inn. Not worth the money at all.”

• Free shuttle to the casino.
• Too small and cramped.

“This hotel is very old and the rooms were small cramped and the bed had no support. The room had no fridge or microwave. It would be ok if you were by yourself and could sleep in the middle of the bed so you would not fall out. But I would not recommend this hotel for anyone.”

• The rooms were small and smelled funny. It was hard to control the temperature.

“There was paint peeling off the walls behind the front desk. The room had a funny odor to it, and it was really hard to control the temperature. There were only about 10 channels to choose from for the cable, and the room was very small. Needless to say I was very disappointed.”

• It did have an indoor and outdoor pool.
• There were stains on the sheets and the room smelled.

“The room was very small but I was just staying one night so I didn't matter much. What disappointed me was a dehumidifier running in the room and the heater/air unit had to be shut off or it would stink you out of the room. I would have just opened the window but I was at ground level and didn't feel safe to do that. The bed looked good and comfortable but when I pulled back the covers there were large s on the sheet! I couldn't believe they would put sheets like that on a bed. I told the clerk about my disappointment and she just made a note and that was it. Where is the customer service? I thought she should have offered some kind of apology or discount. I'm not the type to ask for money back but I thought it should be offered.”

• Location, friendly staff, and pool hours were great.

“Beds were fairly comfortable, lots of pillows (4 for each bed) and they were fluffy and substantial. Room was quiet, late check in was great, they said anytime I got there my room was guaranteed. The location was awesome, didn't really have to drive if didn't want to, attractions and dining pretty much next door.”

• The non smoking room had cigarette burns everywhere.

“I found this hotel to be more of a motel. The rooms were small. The bed itself sagged in the middle. The lighting in the bathroom was poor. The staff needs to learn some customer service skills and the continental breakfast was more of waffles.”

• Nothing. Very bad experience. We will never stay at a Days Inn.
• It was very dirty and small rooms; TV and lights did not work.

“This was a terrible experience for our family on vacation. The internet pictures did not match the hotel real look and was misleading. There were the smallest rooms we have ever stayed in and very dirty. The TV and lights did not work and the AC smelled awful. We will never stay at a Days Inn again. The star rating should of been a 1 star and it rate should of be 39.99. We are very disappointed to start our vacation off that way.”

“Didn't care for this hotel at all. Room needed vacuumed, tub drain didn't work well and when I went to check out, had to use phone to call attendant to check me out and she didn't seem too happy to be interrupted doing whatever it was she was doing (bet it wasn't housekeeping. I think it should only be a one star hotel.”
