Days Inn Birmingham AL

To say this place was horrible is an understatement. You get what you pay for I guess. The layout is weird. The A/​C barely even worked. Thankfully there was a sliding glass door that would open and it was cool outside. The bathroom was gross. To top it all off, my buddy got BED BUG BITES all over his body. I tried to call them and they won’t answer the phone.

I’m a Travel Nurse with a local hospital and I recently chose to stay at this Days Inn after another Wyndham property nearby no longer offered reservations through the Wyndham App. Wow how surprised I was. This is a large property and though a bit dated by no means is it run down. It’s just a stones throw from I-​65 and very convenient for local business access. The front desk staff is very polite and professional and the room clean and comfortable. Value Value Value — maybe with its age it’s not as polished as some of the $ 100 a night properties in Birmingham but it is certainly worth much more than they are charging. The continental breakfast was well stocked and the seating area nice and spacious. I work at night which makes me a daysleeper and few hotels can boast quiet rooms during the daytime — the front desk placed me on the sixth floor facing the back and I could have not been more thrilled. This is my new hotel for every stay in Birmingham — well done Days Inn — Birmingham you represent Wyndham well.

You get what you pay for unfortunately. Took the wrong hallway at first which smelled like a combination of marijuana smoke and burning plastic. The room was just okay. A/​C unit vent was super dirty. Bathroom randomly smelled like sewage when no one in my room had recently been in there. If you’re looking for a quick, cheap place to stay for a night without kids, this place will suffice.

We needed a place to stay for a few hours on our trip to Destin. Upon stopping, we came into our room to be less than impressed.
There was an open door from the outside to the inside of the hotel. It was raining and I am sure he humidity coming in the building can’t be good for the spore count.
I opened the curtain to our balcony and cigarette butts are all over our balcony. Good news is room didn’t smell like smoke.
When I went to the car in the morning, a strong odor of burning marijuana was coming from the room next door. Classy.
The faucet in the bathtub will not shut off and has more than a constant steady drip.
My wife is showering and we are out of here. Not interested in the complimentary breakfast as the rest of the hotel is disgusting.

Horrible place. From rude staff to just the general nastiness of the place. I did not feel safe in this place. They double booked the room, then instead of addressing the problem, I was accosted by their staff who apparently thought no one was in the room, and kept slamming the door even with the sign being left on the door, and me telling them to please come back later. I left briefly for what an excuse they call a warm breakfast (waffle maker, batter, and juice that is basically water), and came back and all of my stuff was gone. When I informed the front desk, instead of addressing the issue, they became combative. I did not stay there for my second night. Walls are paper thin and if someone is on a balcony smoking, weed for instance, you will smell it in your room.
This is a cheap place, was not expecting much, did not expect to be made feel unsafe. Would not recommend at all to anyone. Stay clear if you have kids especially. ¹⁰⁄₂₀ dollars you spend more for a better place will be worth it.

My mom and I have stayed here two other times for various reasons. So this year when our air condition went out during the hottest month in the year, this was our home away from home for 5 nights. We got a decent rate (under $ 400) and our room was handicapped accessible for my mom. The free breakfast is decent and the staff is friendly. While it’s not the cream of the crop boutique hotels I’ve stayed in on business trips, it serves its purpose while our system is being replaced. I’d rather stay here than be hot any day of the week.

This nasty place is still open. We stayed there last Friday night (6÷26÷15)!! It needs to be shut down! The first room we were given smelled weird, light bulbs burned out, and A/​C couldn’t keep up with the heat. Then I went in the bathroom: the «bath mat» that was draped over the tub was wet (eww), there was a pubic hair in the sink and on the hand towel. After calling the front desk and getting no answer (?), we were moved to another room. It seemed better at first, until my fiancé used the bathroom… the toilet stopped up, water came out on floor (from bottom of toilet), then nasty stuff came from drain in bathtub (see picture). Meanwhile, I see a tooth — yes, a tooth sitting on the air conditioner! Needless to say, we checked our weary butts out of there! Oh, non-​existent Internet — literally no network shows up at all.

I’m going to keep this simple.
1. Door lock barely works. Green light does not mean unlocked sometimes.
2. TV is from 1992 and hardly works.
3. Bus stop style kick flush toilet
4. Hardly any power outlets work.
5. No onsite Laundry
6. Bathroom door does not shut completely.
7. Intermittent Internet
So if you are okay with all of that. This place is for you. Personally, you’d be better off pitching a tent in the woods.
