“Worst smell ever!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed August 27, 2012

My boyfried and I recently visited Cedar Point and decided to stay over night at the last minute. We checked in at the last minute and definitely paid for it. The price of the room was quite expansive for the quality and condition of it. The room was very dusty and you could just tell it had not had a good cleaning recently. There was also a strong perfume smell which we noticed in the morning was masking the musty smell in the room. My allergies were going nuts that night. Definitely not coming back to this hotel again.

“Not the best experience”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed July 9, 2012

Although I don't mind them, I don't like to stay motels unless necessary. We were making a quick trip to visit Cedar Point. When we checked in they didn't have any king beds available and their double bed rooms had the smallest full I've shared with my husband who is 6' to my 5'. On top of that discomfort they placed us across from the ice machine. I closed the door and listened to see if I would be able to hear it. I decided I couldn't and went to bed. Worst night of sleep ever! Next to having no space and constantly being woken up from the noisiest ice machine ever I got no sleep! The next day we had an ok breakfast and went to enjoy ourselves at Cedar Point. Little did we know there was a huge storm on the way and there was even alerts for a tornado warning. We escaped the park and headed to our hotel for refuge. We were met with no power, no internet, they closed off the indoor pool and had no idea when the power would be back on. We were shocked that they had no back up generator or anything more to tell us. Later that night the power finally came back on. Against our better judgement we stayed there another night. The ac was faulty and smelly and it would be safe to say I was completely dissatisfied by our stay at Days Inn and would recommend travelers to stay there.

“WORST HOTEL EVER!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed August 14, 2011

Absolutely, without a doubt, hands down the WORST hotel stay we've ever had! The check-in clerk was completely rude and miserable. If she is the first thing that a potential guest has to deal with - that alone would be reason enough to find other accomodations. The room was filthy - we were hit with an overwhelming musty smell as soon as we walked in the door. There were crumbs in the bed my kids turned down - meaning the sheets were never changed or washed from the people before us! We were told there were NO refunds because we booked online. The next night we were kept awake by the people in the room above us for more than hour AFTER I called the front desk to complain. My husband and oldest daughter woke up with bug bites all over them after the second night! We were refused a receipt upon checkout - again we were told because we booked online. This hotel claims to be a resort, but are nothing more than a trashy dive! I am reporting them to Days Inn corporate, the BBB and health department in Sandusky. I won't rest until they are shut down! If this was the last hotel on earth, I'd sleep in my car! Stay away from Days Inn Sandusky - trust me!

Room Tip: Avoid this hotel at ALL costs!!!

“Bad Hotel”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed October 27, 2010

Skip this place. It's old, outdated, has a musty smell, and the front desk clerk was unhelpful. It's time to knock it down and start again. I won it on Hotwire, as a 2 star (far overstatement) with complimentary Breakfast, Pool and Laundry, Skip it!

“DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed October 19, 2010

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL, I was there for 2 nights and it is the worse hotel I have ever stayed in. I was forced to stay because all of the hotels in the area where booked. When I checked in at first glace the lobby was dirty and I could tell the rooms was not going to be any better. The hallway leading to the room just smelled like it needed to be cleaned. I went into the room and it looked alright for the price and I had to leave out. When we got back to the room hours later there was a roach crawling around on the desk area. I was able to change rooms and that room smelled like some urinated on the carpet and it was not cleaned up. I moved to another room after viewing 4 more rooms that smelled like old basements. I was very disappointed and will NEVER stay at a Days inn again.
