“Everything for your breakfast in the lobby was gone there was nothing hot to eat when we got there and couldn't wait for the next round. I was there because my son was in the hospital there in Dover, De. That really disappointed me.”

“This hotel was very close to all of the major attractions in Dover. The employees were very nice and accommodating. There is a night club attached to the property but the rooms are away from this area. I would stay at this hotel again.”

- None.
- Roaches, attached night club, dirty carpet, paint smelling hallways, noise.
“This hotel was assigned 1 star. Hotel is under renovation and should not accept any guests. Hotel hall and rooms were dirty, bathroom had roaches, and carpet was dirty. Night club was housed in the same building and it was very noisy and drunken people were roaming in hotel parking lot. Overall experience was terrible.”

- Not much, other than it was quite, at least at the end of the hall.
- Hallways and elevator had rank smell, had to use stairs it was so bad.
“Would not recommend a friend. Appeared clean, had a stale musty smell in hallways, and the elevator smelled so bad, we had to use the stairwells and my wife has asthma, so it was an inconvenience for her. For the priced charged, I expected a lot better.”

- Location.
- Nasty smelling rooms and hallways.
“The rooms posted on hotels.com, are not the rooms available. The hallway was filled with Smokey mildewing smells. We asked for non smoking room which on side of the hall way was smoking and the other was non-smoking not too smart try having a whole floor designated for each preference. The room, the double beds were old (solid mattresses and springs worn out). The bathroom was mildewed Nasty caulking around the sink with built up dirt in the corners of the dirty floor. The room was just Nasty...”

- The lobby and staff were delightful.
- Lots of "locals" coming and going, poor upkeep of rooms.
“I have traveled a great deal and rarely have I felt uncomfortable in a hotel. I did here. Very shabby and far too much "traffic" in and out of my floor by local people who were not staying in the hotel. The great thing was that each room had a nice fridge and microwave, and the desk staff were the equal of any four star hotel. The establishment is fortunate to have workers who understand that a pleasant word can go a long way toward offsetting an otherwise below average stay.”

- It is close to my son's house.
- Needs renovating. Too close to rough crowd at Extreme night club. Drug deals in parking lot.
“Staff was pleasant, nice lobby, but rooms are dark, bathrooms old but more importantly, I was afraid of the patrons leaving the nigh club attached to this motel. Why don't you list the Days Inn on your selection list.”
