I tried to stay at the Days Inn SLO in February. The first room they put me in had a foul/moldy odor. I complained about that one and the next room had multiple problems ... Used cigars on the balcony, dents in the refrigerator, holes in the linens. There was a piece of duct tape (!) on the TV remote holding batteries in place. In short, the room was filthy and I'd had enough.
I requested that they not charge my credit card and I would stay somewhere else. They refused even though I never unpacked, so I had to dispute the charge through my credit card company. This was outrageous customer service--the hotel wasn't even close to full so my reservation had no impact on their potential business. I'd been polite with them throughout and they were rude to boot.
I ended up staying somewhere else in SLO, which was much nicer. The owner there advised me to check tripadviser. The owner was shocked to find that the Days Inn had dropped not only out of the top 10 but into the 20s in the ratings here out of roughly 25 hotels in the SLO area. The owner said it must have happened very quickly (in just a year or so). This was consistent with my experience as I'd stayed at the Days Inn several years before and it has gone down hill drastically since then.
Stay away!
