Days Inn Austin Crossroads

I was quite impressed with the hotels cleanness and rooms equipped well ! Staff was friendly and helpful.

This place is ok. It’s cheap. Free bkfst just get there before 10 cause they shut it down real quick. The beds are ok. Microwave and fridges work. The cleaning ladies are nice. The pool is good. Fitness center is weak but doable. Gets packed on weekends. Lots of people pre gaming before they go out and then come back loaded, loud at 2am. They’re definitely having sex too. I’ve stayed in a shit ton worse places.

This hotel pleasantly suprised us when we checked in. The room was clean and smelled vaguely of vanilla. The bed was comfortable, the bed linens were nice and there were 4 laege, fluffy pillows. However, the next morning when we tried to shower there were a few problems. First, there was NO water pressure. I’m not talking about not just what we are accostomed to, but seriously… a mere trickle. Hot water was a pipedream; only a sad, tepid drizzle was able to be coaxed from the pipes, which turned to a frigid, slightly harder drizzle just after lathering up. After 5 minutes or so, the sad, limp tepid drizzle returned, which was quickly used, lest the cold water return.
My husband called the desk to let them know we were having problems, they said just let it run and the ‘hot’ water would return, and it did return to the previous lukewarm temp, so I suppose the front desk staff was correct.
I stopped by the desk on our way out to talk to them about our shower problems. Once they acknowledged me, I told them what room I was in and the gentleman interupped me and said that he had checked and there was plenty of hot water available when we called, then he and the other woman behind the desk stopped talking to me and returned to the computer screen they were looking at, basically dismissing me.
Rarely have I been treated so rudely at a hotel. I didn’t expect them to really do anything about the problem, but didn’t feel that at least PRETENDING to be concerned and offering an apology was asking too much; but appearantly it was.
The location is good, the hotel is older, but the room was clean and the beds and pillows were great; however, I strongly recommend showering the night before, when their sad, overworked boiler can handle the load.

The reasons I resorted to having had experienced this establishment are many and not relevant. May this post serve as a warning to all — Sleeping in your car would be more sanitary and laying your head on their pillow.
Recommendation to the proprietors — increase your rates thirty to fifty percent then bring the comfort level into the twenty first century. You’re in Austin, not Tijuana.

This was the worst service ever!!! The owner threatened to kick me out because I told him he didn’t answer the phone the night before and he told me I was lying. Why would I lie about you not answering the phone. All I wanted was a new refrigerator because we had a extended stay and I didn’t want to keep eating out. And we still never got a refrigerator I will never stay here again and I will make sure I complain about him on everything because he made me feel like I did something wrong when I didn’t !

You get what you pay for. It’s the days inn, not the Ritz. I just had to make a 3 day business stop. The room was fine. Comfy bed, desk for work. Cable TV and free Wi-​Fi. Iron and board. They offered a free breakfast in the mornings but I didn’t actually see how that was. The room could have been a bit cleaner. Blood splatter of the telephone wasn’t exactly appealing. How and why, I don’t know. Aside from that, it was ok. I have had better and I have had worse.
Ps. I’m not from the area, so I don’t know Austin all that well, but this didn’t seem to be the ‘greatest’ side of town… just fyi.

Disclaimer– this is not the Omni, this is Days Inn. If you go into this expecting Omni, you will be disappointed.
Service– was solid. Greeted promptly when arriving and when leaving. No issues
The room– yes the bathroom is small and the water pressure leaves something to be desired, but the bed is cozy and we didn’t have ANY sanitation issues. The building is older and could use some cosmetic repairs, but it’s great for what it is. A $ 60 a night hotel 4 miles from downtown Austin.
Breakfast– Again, it is what it is. Decent hotel food that you would find at any Dury Inn. Fills you up but isn’t a 5star brunch.
Overall it did its job and we were pleased with the hotel and staff. If you need a place to stay for a great price, this is the place. Besides, who comes to Austin to stay in their hotel?

Place sucks plain and simple. Crickets are everywhere at the door we asked for non smoking and it smelled of smoke real bad. Also found a cockaRoach in bathroom

2 star price for a two star hotel. Bugs in the hallway, the continental breakfast was basic but good enough for me. Incredibly crowded and packed but I got my cereal and left. Took the stairs because at 940am the cleaning staff brought the garbage to the only elevator and so we got our cardio on.
Pool very tiny but for a 2 star hotel you get 2 star quality of everything. Just go there if you need a place to crash.

After our original hotel refused to adjust our reservation when our car broke down we ended up booking a room at days inn. Check in was quick and the room was very clean and up to date, not far from down tow. Where our event was.

Bedbugs, cigarettes and filth.

This is a gem of a hotel. It was my home for the better part of a month. The staff was on the ball all the time. The front desk staff were personable, professional and considerate. Dennis recognized my special needs and transferred me to a accessible room. Patrick was really sweet. Alex at night, kindness he showed me from helping me with my computer and general anxiety at night will not be forgotten. This Hotel had the best breakfast of all the hotel’s I stayed at. It was healthy, and lots of choices. This is not a Continental breakfast. .it’s a real meal.
Housekeeping was exemplary, coming into my room cleaning and putting my personal belongings in a proper place. Even maintenance shined, replacing a lamp and light bulbs in the evening. I am going to recommend this hotel to my family and friends.

It’s been awhile since I wrote a review, but I have to say something. We checked in to Days Inn on Saturday afternoon and we indicated we’d be traveling with our small dog. We’ve stayed in tons of hotels with our dog and haven’t ever had a problem with the quality of room.
We were assigned to room 151 (I implore you– do NOT accept this room!!!) and it absolutely REEKED of dog urine. That stench was deeply soaked in and has probably smelt like that for months, if not years. The room is also located next to the pool and I think the close vicinity made the room attract lots of moisture, making the room suuuuuper humid (the bed sheets were moist and our clothes were damp in the morning too… Wouldn’t be surprised if there was toxic mold too). We had to ask for Febreeze to mask the rancid stench (I can’t even properly describe how disgusting it was) of all of the past dogs who had made their mark all over the carpet, chairs, god knows where else… It was horrid. We usually would have asked for a different room, but almost every hotel in town was booked and having a dog limited our options by a LOT.
I woke up in the morning and I couldn’t wait to check out– it was like I paid to sleep in a soiled dog kennel.
I should also mention that the rooms were remarkably dated and there was a lovely blue cable draped all the way across the ceiling. Really set the mood.
I think this will be my last time staying at Days Inn. Their competitors all seem to do a fine job of keeping their pet friendly rooms nice and clean (as they should, especially when I’m paying an additional deposit/​cleaning fee… I’d hope they’d actually use that money to adequately clean the room!)
Also, to all of the inconsiderate people who travel with dogs that aren’t house trained— just stop. It’s real nasty.

The hotel is cheap for Austin but the rooms are small and the bathrooms are tiny. The shower head is chest high on me with very little pressure. On the positive side the beds are comfortable and the rooms have a microwave, mini fridge and a one cup coffee pot with coffee and tea provided. They also have several vending machine options for drinks and snacks. The complementary breakfast is decent. Overall not a bad place to stay.

I’m only giving it 4 starts because the water pressure sucked, BUT everything else was great.
Great place for a cheap room!!!
They even let me stay longer in the breakfast room. Waffles at 10:15 sounds great

I don’t expect much from any Days Inn, no matter what the location. We had to book a room for 4 nights at the last minute to attend our friends’ wedding in Austin, and because of the Austin City Limits festival going on that weekend our choices were minimal and for the most part ridiculously expensive. Since we were definitely renting a car, we didn’t mind choosing a place a little outside of the city if it meant we could save money. Priceline offered us a great deal at this particular Days Inn so we booked a room with a king bed.
The drive from the airport is super quick — 15 minutes. The Days Inn is located right at a major highway intersection, and unfortunately there is only one entrance/​exit to the parking lot, and only from one direction so it’s slightly inconvenient if you don’t know your way around/​have a GPS. But it’s a straight shot into downtown, 5 minutes, and at least the area is quiet at night. We arrived SUPER late (like, 1am?) but the guy at the counter was nice and friendly, despite clearly being as tired as we were, and quickly got us oriented before we passed out. Room was smallish but nicer than we expected and actually CLEAN. Enough space to walk around the bed comfortably, plus a desk with chair, dresser where the flatscreen tv was in front of the bed, and even a large side chair across from the open «closet» with iron, ironing board, and safe. The bathroom is small, and the sink is outside of it right at the door, but again clean is KEY.
Breakfast is free, downstairs near the entrance, and is super simple: coffee (thank god, but that shit is HOT, I accidentally burned myself and, well, I wouldn’t be surprised if it scarred) and tea, apple and orange juice, oatmeal with raisins, brown sugar, granola, two cereals and milk, toast (white, cinnamon raisin, whole wheat), Dannon light n fit yogurt, and your standard waffle maker. There is technically a fitness center, but one look at that closet made me want to cry: ONE weight machine, and three ancient cardio (elliptical, bike, and a BROKEN treadmill). Outdoor pool is tiny and we didn’t bother using it, and there are coin operated laundry machines too.
This place was fine, and probably would’ve been more comfortable IF it wasn’t overrun with ACL festival attendees, mostly teenagers/​college kids who were barefoot at breakfast and didn’t seem to understand that talking loudly/​drunkenly at 3am in the hallway is obnoxious, especially since you’re not in your DORM.
Free WIFI though!

We stayed here for one night last week because it was close to a conference I was attending the next day. I got a deal on Priceline for $ 50. The place is not in the best part of town. We arrived around midnight and there were a lot of unsavory looking fellows walking around near the motel.
The décor in the lobby and our room is best described as «70’s Chic», for lack of a better term. The receptionist was nice, even after being continually interrupted during our check in by a rude man trying to rent a room with a coupon.
Our non-​smoking room used to be a smoking one. It was the first thing my husband noticed when we walked in. The room was clean and was equipped with a fridge, microwave and coffee maker. The coffee was disgusting, so I suggest finding some elsewhere.
The pillows looked very flat and thin. We brought our own from home, so we didn’t use their’s. The bed was soft, but not uncomfortable.
The bathroom was very small, and the tub had a slimy feel to it. The towels appeared clean, but we brought our own.
The AC worked, but it was loud. It actually startled me when it kicked on.
Overall, we got what we paid for.

Low-​end adequacy. Stayed here for SX, my penance for booking late. I have no dire complaints — the staff was helpful and friendly enough — but heed the questionable reviews.
The place smells funny, is kinda dirty, the bed was old but sufficient, the pool area existed, and the nuisance of ingress and egress is no joke. It is annoying to get to and difficult to exit. It works as a crash pad and it certainly beats no roof over your head. They had decent selection in the snack machines, but that’s the best I can do ginning up compliments.

We recently stayed here for SXSW. The place itself is a little dingy and has a weird smell to it. They offer a less than average free breakfast in the morning. The rooms are a little outdated and the walls are thin, but otherwise fine.
The customer service, however, is appalling. We had accidentally left a few button up shirts hanging in the closet. Soon after realizing we called them to say we would be right back to pick them up and to just hold them at the front desk for us… of course they magically ‘disappeared’ and they assumed we must have been mistaken. We were not. We are 100% sure the shirts were there. They did nothing. So, on top of the less than great environment, this hotel employs thieves too.
Bravo, Days Inn. Hope your staff enjoys all that J. Crew…

I hate that my first review has to be negative, but they can’t all be winners, right!!! I stayed here last week for a business trip because it was close to my meeting AND it had better reviews (3 stars) than any other surrounding hotels… probably because it doesn’t appear to be in the best of neighborhoods. When I arrived, I had a little difficulty finding a parking space between the 18 wheelers and flat bed trailers whose occupants apparently chose to stay here too. I believe there might have been designated spots for larger vehicles, but couldn’t really tell because there was no striping in said areas and they pretty much just made up their own spot becuase they were all kinds of crooked.
Once I maneuvered my way into a spot, I got all my items and went to check in. The gentleman at the front desk was extremely nice and helpful. No complaints on him.
The next morning, about 5:00am, I make my way to the gym, which consisted of an elliptical, treadmill, 2 bikes, and a weight machine crammed into a very small area. As I am walking past the front desk, there is a cat sitting on the corner of the desk to greet me. Me being the animal lover I am, I have to pet it. As I got closer to it, I notice there is something oozing out of his eye. Hand retracted. As I get to the gym door, it’s locked and I see it’s only open from 6:00am — 10:00pm. I asked a different front desk clerk why it’s closed and he said it’s for liability purposes. I asked what liability and he said he didn’t know in a very rude, short tone and if I would like to speak with the manager, he would be in later. Not sure why he was so rude… maybe because I didn’t pet his cat!!!
The breakfast is OK… just your typical toast, cereal, bananas, etc… no meat or eggs. It was included with the stay, so I can’t really complain about that.
So, to sum up my review, if you like sharing parking lots with larger vehicles who don’t know how to park, if you like possible diseased cats in your vicinity, and dislike early morning workouts, this is the place for you! Otherwise, I would stay somewhere else.
