Days Inn Wilmington/Newark

I think Nancy’s review below is right on point, but I’ll add a few remarks.
My biggest complaint is the inflexibility of the beds — they are absolutely rock hard. The mattresses could cut diamonds. Although I probably was not going to get a good night’s sleep anyway, I would have liked to have laid on something that did not destroy my back.
That being said, the price per night was less than $ 70 (gotta have your AAA to get the good discounts). Can’t beat that. People need to remember that this is supposed to be a cheap motel not the presidential suite at the Four Seasons.
I was pleasantly surprised to see eggs and omelets at the continental breakfast too.

The Days Inn Wilmington/​Newark wasn’t as bad it seemed. Even though when you walk into the lobby area it smells weird and looks completely outdated, the room was not bad for the price of what I paid $ 71.10 (w/​o tax or fees) was not a bad deal.
The pictures on their website are representative of what it looks for sure with clean white linens and the red over sheet for show. The pillows were pretty sad and the blanket was a fleece sandwiched between two sheets. The carpet was clean, the tv really have any channels, and the ac was fine. However, the bathroom was a different story. The sink/​mirror area was separated from the toilet/​shower area so you are pretty much brushing your teeth right next to your bed almost and the toilet/​shower area just smelled bad of stale urine. The bathroom amenities included three soap bars, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, make-​up remover wipe, towels, iron, hair dryer, and a small area to hang clothes. The lamps were useful with built in outlets, the desk and chair seemed pretty new and ergonomic.
It seemed like a lot of men who work in construction or contracting business spend the night there because there were a lot of trucks and equipment. In the middle of the night there were guests talking super loudly, so if you’re a light sleeper it may be a hit or miss for you.
In the morning there was continental breakfast of the usual carbs and spreads, eggs, potatoes, yellow rice, waffles on request, cereal, oatmeal, fruit, yogurt, and juices/​coffee. Definitely enough to keep you filled and keep everyone happy.
Wifi was free and make sure if you don’t use the safe to ask to get the fee removed from your bill (it’s $ 1.50, I didn’t know was automatically added but thankfully go it removed)

If Unilocal gives out zero star then that’s what this hotel should qualified for. Worst service ever. After checking in to the room took a small leak and flush the toilet. The toilet doesn’t flush. The water doesn’t flushes down. So we used a small piece of toilet paper to test if it flushes and it doesn’t. We call the front desk if they have someone to come up and fix this problem, they said they only have one person on duty and no maintenance personal, but they a plunger. I told them to take care of it. I wait in the room for an hour. No one comes up and check and not even a call. So I call back and what I got was the most horrible reply ever. This time it was a guy who pickup the phone. I told him the issue and here’s what his reply. «Well, you should of told us an hour ago after you check in. We don’t give out rooms with stuff up toilet.» I was like… ummmmm…I did call about this issue when I checked in and no one took care of it. That’s why I’m calling back. So I ask him who’s going to fix the toilet. If no fix the toilet then can I switch room. His reply was, sir we have a plunger at the front desk. So that means Ill just spent $ 85 on a hotel room and I have to fix their broken toilet. Who checks in to a hotel with nonfunctional toilet, or fixed a hotels toilet in the middle of the night. Isn’t that their job. I wanted to checked out and a refund. He said we don’t do anything wrong and there is no bad service on their part so they don’t have to refund me. But the moment I was in the room I notice the toilet problem and we notified the front desk and no one was there to take care of it. I ask for the manager and he said there is no manager on duty until tomorrow and I can «check out at anytime». This is the type of service they provide. I don’t see why people should go and stay there with that kind of service. After all that torment we left to stay at another hotel where we can use a «functional» toilet. We won’t be staying there anymore even if it’s free.

Very unpleasant stay. Room was not very clean, had food debris under the bed, smelled if smoke, carpet was very worn, bed was not comfortible. We surmised that if the room was not clean then the breakfast probably had the same standards so we passed on breakfast. To add insult, the front desk called us and said some of the staff had seen us with a dog. We had no dog and welcomed them to come into the room to inspect, which they did & then the front desk clerk had a very obnoxius attitude. We were treated as if we were criminals.
I will never stay at Days Inn again even for free.

I stayed here back in April 2013, and frankly was quite comfortable. The room I got was clean and the beds were comfortable. The breakfast was decent. The hotel is located close to a couple of malls, target & regal theater. So if you have loads to do if you are getting bored.
This is a decent & cheap option specially if your stay is of more than 2 – 3 days.

This was one of the worst experiences ever… Please read and do not stay here! For the extra $ 20 you could stay in a much better place and feel comfortable. First of all I asked for non smoking and got a smoking room that smelled like an ashtray and had cigarette burns everywhere. The beds were stained and the floor was crusty and stained! I would not recommend ever taking your shoes off but hey you never know you maybe like me and shoes can’t even protect your feet! While walking outside the sidewalk and pavement was covered with liter. I tried to avoid this but a sharp piece of rusty metal got under my sandal and stabbed me in the foot! When I took this complaint and the smoking to the lady at the front desk she showed no concern and asked for my room key to see what my number was. She was not apologetic and must have not been actually listening to me because she checked me out without me telling her that I was checking our. Then when I asked for my key back she said that she had checked me out and never apologized for «her» mistake! As for the complementary breakfast. I had to wait 10 minutes because their appliances are broken. Again please read this and take heed to my warnings! If I could have given them no stars I would have!

An OK place for the price. The room smelled a little musty. But the beds were comfortable, the room was clean, and the TV worked. Very friendly and helpful staff. The big positive surprise was the hot breakfast. I was thinking a waffle iron. They have a bar with a nice Indian lady behind it. She makes your waffles. She also makes scrambled eggs plus two tasty and spicy Indian breakfast dishes. While the pastries weren’t great, they were a step above what this kind of place usually has. Be sure to plan to stay for breakfast if you are staying here.
Good shopping nearby. There is a mall right behind the hotel and another large shopping center just beyond that.

Please if you love yourself do not stay here. I came here because my home needed to be fumigated, with my 2 small children, they said they have CRIBS, it was a pack and play, they tried to make me walk up the steps, carrying my car seat with my indfant, my toddler and a crib up the stairs, then he decided he can give me a first floor room… right before telling me, he has no extra sheets for my sons crib, my shower was broken upon arrival oh and said he cant fix it til TOMORROW… how nice right?
