• Located across from the mall.
• Very dirty hotel and too loud!

“Not very clean at all! Our stay was awful. With all the teams having a party, it was so hard to sleep. My children wanted to leave. I would recommend this for teams only, not families as they would be disappointed like we were. The staff was not helpful at all. The housekeepers themselves, didn't look like they too happy about working here. I will not stay here again!”

• Location, parking.
• The door was extremely hard to close and we had to slam it a few times when arriving/leaving.

“The room was alright but needs to be updated I think. The bathroom seemed a bit small. The door to enter the hotel didn't have a bar on the inside to push on to get out just the small end of it didn't seem all that secure and safe.”

• Basic accommodation at a reasonable price.
• Seemed a little run down.

“Days Inn London is fine if you're just looking for reasonably priced, very basic accommodations. The rooms are small but have all the amenities you need. TV, Wi-Fi, coffee maker etc. Some things in our room were in need of repair (broken chair and the door lock was very hard to disengage). Outdoor pool was fine but small and the area got quite rowdy in the early evening with lots of people hanging out by the pool and drinking/smoking outside their rooms.”

• Noise from road.

“Great price. Very loud at night due to nearby road. Had to wait at counter at check-in and check-out because there was only one receptionist and they were on the phone both times.”

• Very good location, good room for the price.
• Some maintenance occurred during the duration of our stay.

“Honestly, we were really impressed with the room. The room had 2 beds, mini-fridge and a microwave. They didn't even have those at the Hilton. Plus, free wireless internet. The best part was the location (across from White Oaks Mall), near many restaurants and close to downtown. Very comfortable and clean. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others.”

• We have eaten breakfast at this hotel a number of times and were not disappointed. The staff was helpful.
• We had to look at 3 rooms to finally get an upgrade to an acceptable one.

“Song, the young man who checked us in, was very helpful and pleasant. The twice the rooms we were given were unacceptable. It appeared that the staff had made the beds with queen sized sheets rather than king sheets that would fit the bed. We know from experience that we would have been sleeping on the mattress long before morning. Song was terrific and finally gave us an "upgrade" to a newly renovated room. Then the room was fine but the halls were not clean and the door from the parking lot was not working properly and could not be locked without pulling it extra hard. Most people did not do that and therefore we felt uncomfortable being somewhat unsafe. I would not stay here again.”

• We have a newly renovated room.
• It was dirty due to renovation and very old hotel. It needs the upgrade.

“First impressions are not great at the Days Inn. The building is older and the reception desk area is very loud due to an open floor plan with a restaurant. Trying to check in with all the noise was difficult. They had us drive to door three in the back and the parking lot was gross. All the garbage bins were full and over flowing, there was construction material everywhere, and cigarette buts covering the sidewalk. At this point I was very worried! However, when we arrived in our room it was beautiful. It was recently remodeled and smelled like paint. We weren't happy with the fumes, so I spoke with the front desk about it. They were completely booked due to the reconstruction and couldn't move us to another room. They did offer to spray the room with an odor neutralizer and open a vent in the air conditioner so it drew in fresh air. It seemed to work and our room did air out. All in all, it was a nice stay and we were conveniently located to everything we needed. I would stay there again, especially for the price.”

• Location was ideal, restaurant was o.k.
• Hotel was under renovations that we were not aware of.

“We were disappointed with the mess on the floor that we were assigned however after requesting a change of floors and rooms, we were promptly given a renovated room on a different floor. I think they should not have guests on the floor that was being renovated to begin with as it was dusty and noisy with discarded furniture throughout the hallway. We were traveling with a group of 17 (5 rooms) and we wanted to be on the same floor so we were all placed on the floor that was being renovated. The good news is that they did move us all when we complained.”

• The housekeeping and restaurant were very good.
• There was construction that could have been a problem - but fortunately the noise occurred at times when it did not matter to me.

“Decent accommodations. It should be very nice when the construction is complete. The restaurant food was good and their employees were extremely nice, helpful, and professional. The housekeepers were very professional and extremely helpful when I needed things because airport security took things from my luggage. I thought the price was a little higher than it should have been for this hotel but the location was convenient for the activities I had planned and I would stay there again.”

• The room was huge about twice the size of my bedroom at home.
• Not the nicest view.

“The Day's Inn in south London Ontario greatly exceeded my expectations. For the price, all I expected was the basics bed and bath and at a decent location. We got this of course and more. The room was practically big enough to play football in (certainly plenty of room for a cot or crib), all the facilities were clean, and the staff was nice and helpful. Other perks that I would not expect from a hotel at this price were free (and fast) wireless internet, a decent in hotel restaurant, and complimentary toiletry stuff like razors, shaving cream, toothpaste, etc. (this came in quite handy since the airlines lost our luggage). The location was quite convenient right off highway 401 but not exactly romantic or in the center of Downtown. I would highly recommend this place to any business travelers or thrifty vacationers going to or through London, on.”

“This hotel did not come close to meeting the minimum requirement of a 2 star hotel room. The hotel was very old and rooms showed it. Bed uncomfortable and old. Shower had mold. Window lacked a curtain that covered the window therefore allowing window allowing people to look in.”

• Nothing.
• Old, ugly, noisy, substandard.

“We were very unhappy with our stay at the London Days Inn. The rooms were sub-standard, old and in rough shape. There were parties going on all weekend on site (indoors and outdoors) until very late at night and the hotel staff did nothing about it. (Softball tournament teams). We did not manage to get at least one good night sleep and we were there 4 nights. We asked for upgrades and to be moved in a different (newer part of the hotel) and were not accommodated. In any other situation I would have been refunded my money and moved on to a better place. Again, very unhappy with this hotel and the overall experience.”

• Just the sliders doors do not lock have to use the secure bar to be locked in both rooms.

“Everything was as we expected and across from large mall and great restaurants in the area. Outside pool in a courtyard but have to make early reservations for inside room to the pool but no problem from other rooms except no view.”

• The only good thing about this hotel is the location. Very busy area if you want to shop and eat.
• The rooms were run down, and the staff was not that friendly or helpful. Overpriced for what it was.

“Too expensive for what it was. Nicer places to stay right in the area that are newer. The only good thing about this hotel was that it was right across the street from a mall!”

• It was on a main street but was still very quiet. I don't like to hear what's going on outside or in the next room for that matter.
• I have nothing to reply.

“We stayed at a Hilton in December and this was a far better motel. Ruby our receptionist was helpful and very pleasant. The cleaning lady was so polite. The room was self heat controlled and we didn't get overly warm or excessively cold. I will definitely be visiting again.”
