  • I think my feelings at the end of the video were pretty accurate... a decent room for $50. This property had nice curb appeal for an economy hotel with exterior corridors and seemed well kept. Most issues with the room were more amusing than anything.

    Great review as usual. The nicest Days Inn I've ever seen. Not exactly a high bar but this one clears it. I so need to get to Fiesta Texas at some point.

    There's a Choice hotel just around the corner from that one. It's a couple blocks off the interstate. About ten years old, my wife and I stayed there a couple times a while back. A tad nicer than the Days Inn. Of course, it cost a bit more...

      My first choice was actually a Sleep Inn a few exits away, but they were asking a huge premium for refundable rates. This trip was a bit shaky with COVID so I opted for the refundable option here.

    @FloridianElevators Před 3 lety +1

    I normally tell people to avoid Days Inn like the plague, but it seems this one is an exception. That said though, I do kind of get the feeling that the reason your room was good is because it was close to what you said were the living quarters of the owner, and with that said, it's probably more well cared for than the other rooms here. This place doesn't seem too bad, but personally, if you can afford to stay somewhere nicer, I would. But I know that isn't always an option.

    That bathroom exhaust fan is inexcusable, you can get a whole retrofit kit on Amazon for $50, it includes a new fan and cover with light fixture and light cover, you don't have to remove the old fan casing, just remove the wingnut above the light bulb, pull down the old cover, unplug the light and fan, pull down the old fan, usually there's a single hex head screw and it just levers down and pulls out, and install the update kit, which is the inverse of removal, the new cover should be as large or larger than the old cover, it can be done in under 10 mins by a housekeeper with an instruction sheet
