Days Inn Terrell

The staff was extremely helpful during check in and our month long stay, the rooms were ok… nothing to really write about, cold AC and decent. Cheap over night stay yes, month long stay. Parking was very crowded and I drag a trailer every where I go… so it was even tighter.
There is a waffle house next door… LOL

Wow. I thought we would be ok when we booked into a Days Inn rather than choosing a Motel 6 or something like that. This place was a dive and vies with one of our other stays as the worst of the trip. I would rank this slightly better than the Rodeaway in Vernal, Utah, but not enough to bump it up to 2 stars.
This is a complete dive. They were remodeling when we stayed and although there was hardly anybody there, they gave us a room on the side where the work was being done. There could have been a good reason for this. Maybe the rooms on the other side of the hotel were completely run down and gutted.
In any case, the place looked like it was falling apart from the outside. Frankly, I was afraid to stay and was glad that at least we were on the first floor (though how safe that would have been if the second floor had collapsed on top of us can be debated). At least we didn’t have to go up any of the stairs.
Inside was better than outside at least, which is maybe why they had located us in the middle of the construction zone. The rooms seemed clean and had adequate AC and standard amenities.
They had a pool, but it was dirty with debris from the construction. They tried to clean it up a bit and it wasn’t that bad, but my husband refused to get in and the kids and I only stayed in for about 20 minutes or so.
The whole area is bleak. There aren’t a lot of choices for dinner and nothing to do. Fortunately, this was only a nightly stopover on our long road trip.
Only upside was that it was cheap and had a free breakfast. Breakfast wasn’t too bad either.
