I first reviewed this hotel about a year ago. I was just fine. A cheap place to sleep with clean rooms. We stayed there again recently in conjunction with the same yearly event that is held near Princeton. We noticed some changes to the hotel, most notably the service. I originally called to make my reservation about 8 weeks in... More

I will be honest. If all you are looking for is a quick over night stay and you plan on hitting the road early then by all means this motel is fine. You will be satisfied. For an extended stay your best bet is to stay away. Paid $62.50 per night Now for the details: We had driven all night... More

This Days Inn really needs some updates. We noticed that the hallways (on second floor) could use either new wallpaper or fresh paint. We had a king size room and the sheets were clean. The bath towels were kind of thread bare. We did have a one cup coffee maker which was nice. The T.V. said "no signal" but we... More

Arrived 11:00 pm without a reservation after driving all day. Received a pleasant welcome from the woman at the front desk and a room on the first floor, just off the lobby, which was perfect. The room was much nicer than I expected for the price (about $50). Room was very clean, nicely appointed and quiet.. Location was convenient to... More

When you first walk in to the lobby, you see dirty old furniture from the 1970's, burned out ceiling lights, and an old dingy bar. The service desk people were unwelcoming, just like the atmosphere. When you open the door it was dark, filthy, with fly-specked walls,and an out-dated bathroom. The beds were old with worn out, thread bare bedding,... More

The front desk clerk was abrupt and unfriendly. The workout areas were closed for renovation. I specifically requested a room as far away from the smokers' rooms as possible. There is a sign in the lobby saying that smoking is prohibited in the halls and lobby, but whenever I walked out of my room, the stink of smoke was overwhelming.... More

We paid $60/night during our recent stay here. For $60 a night you should expect a clean room and not much else. We got that. We also got friendly service during check-in, plenty of soft pillows on the bed, some donuts and coffee in the morning and a hotel bar with a fun Halloween Party. It's so annoying when people...

I was staying at the hotel with two family members that have medical problems. I had first asked for a handicap room but, was told the only one they had was in bad shape. I can hardly belive what that room must have been like. The room we ended up getting, was very unclean. I pulled back the covers to... More

The last 3 years we have done the "More on 34" driving tour which is garage sales, flea market, fairs, etc. that starts in Sandwich and goes to Galesburg. It happens every Father's Day weekend. The last 3 years we have stayed at the Day's Inn. I will admit it isn't the cleanest hotel. The owners of the hotel, the... More

Wow, where do I start? We should have read the reviews but were under a bit of a time crunch and $60 split three ways sounded good at the time. Then we checked in. We were greeted by three cars in a lot meant to host I'm guessing 80 rooms (one of which cars I'm sure belonged to the attendant... More
