We had stay for two nights there because the location is really near to Busch Garden, although the price was really competitive but unfortunatelly the condition of amenities are really old and need repairs. We had one king bed room which was in the second floor near the stairs. The bed was tilt in the middle when you lay down... more

We had two-day tickets to Busch Gardens, and needed a nearby place to stay overnight. We were expecting a basic, budget hotel room, and were extremely disappointed with this place. The employee who checked us in was extremely rude. When we presented a discount coupon from one of the hotel's advertisements, he said "you pre-paid in advance, I don't know... more

This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. The room smelled musty and damp and without looking too hard you just knew it wasn't very clean. The car park seemed like a dumping ground. Don't be fooled by the photographs on the site – the reception seems to be a new building totally separate from the rooms. We... more

we stayed one night at this hotel when we visited Busch Gardens. We didnt expect much since we only payed 45 dollars for the night but we did expect clean sheets on the beds. The parking lot was a mess and gave a bad impression right away, but when we got in the room and pulled back the sheets there... more

This is the worst hotel I've ever stayed in. The room smelled absolutely disgusting - moldy, musty, and putrid. I got there at 11:30 pm and had to go out and find some air freshner. The toilet ran all night, the tv wasn't working properly, and worst of all there were BUGS! They looked like maybe they were ants or... more

Star at the front desk was very nice, she is what made the stay ok. The elevator smelled like ten dead things mixed with nasty urine, so we used the stairs. Our room was ok, not filthy, but I did wonder about how long the blanket and bedspread had been on the bed since it was washed, and I did... more

After a long day at Busch Gardens, we got a room at this place. Wow, I have never been in anything so disgusting in my life... just the smell alone was enough... moldy and musty. Beds were awful... never again will I stay at a Days Inn... more

The Days Inn West of Busch Gardens was a NIGHTMARE to put it mildly. The doors did not close right, the deadbolt to our room was not working, the room was dirty, and I was harassed by a group of men loitering out by the ice machine when I went to get some ice--which was the last straw for me.... more

After a long drive we arrived at the hotel around 11:30 at night. The lobby to register was packed. There were two employees at the desk registering guests. Registration went relatively easy and we were given keys and directions to our room. The layout of the rooms was not very guest friendly. Once parked we walked up the steps and... more
