Days Inn Winston-Salem Motel - Page 1

Being pet friendly was the main reason I had chosen it. It was also close to the hospital.

The hotel had a great location near the mall! I had eight people with me and they are great with large groups!

My son and I stayed at this hotel on Feb 24, 2007. He had an audition early the next day.

Unfortunately for us there was some type of party going on until 1:30 am, the music was so loud and so much bass-my head was pounding. When we called the desk manager at 11:30 she assured us the party and music would end at midnight, which it did not. We called two times more and she assured us it would end. Finally, at 1:30 it ended.

Then around 2:00 the fire alarm went off and we could smell smoke and it sounded as it people were evacuating. When I called to find out the front desk assured us everything was ok we would be alerted if we needed to leave. When the fire truck arrived I became concerned, but felt I would be alerted, so we attempted to get to sleep. However, now the elevator alarm went off consistently until the wee hours. I felt like I was in a strange dream sequence.

The next morning there was no apology no offer for certificates, nothing. Frankly, I was so tired and aggravated and didn't want my son to witness a scene, that we just left. Never ever again will I stay in any Days Inn anywhere now after that.

This is a great hotel to stay at for the price.

From the outside and lobby area, the hotel looked great but looks can be deceiving. The room had an odor, and a stale air-conditioner that did not work properly, it made loud noises all night. It had a small bathroom, and no maintenance staff on duty at night to fix things. Their only option in the middle of the night is to move everyone to another room.

The TV had static on all channels, I had to wiggle the cable cord often for clear reception. The hotel had 5 floors, but only had drinks and vending machines on first floor and ice on every other floor. It was very inconvenient if your room was on the 5th floor. The refrigerator in the room had old grey ice build up and had not been cleaned in a while. The parking had a bit to be desired. On a good note, the Belgian waffles were good at breakfast.
