Great Budget Hotel

While the hotel is by no means an upscale hotel, it certainly meets the needs of a family on a budget looking for a clean, well maintained hotel. The breakfast was much better than we expected. There were 3 different fresh fruits offered, English muffins, toast, plenty of cereal, 2 different juices and coffee. The pool was beautiful and if the weather had been warmer we would have took advantage of it. I would recommend this hotel. The staff was very pleasant and professional. They allowed us to check in early and were very nice. The parking was also convenient and close to the hotel making taking luggage in easy. We plan to return.

AWFUL

Rooms were by far the worst I have stayed in. Not clean and not their goal to keep them clean as daily duties were a chore. Toilets and tub not clean whole 4 days there. Had to complain of floor not being swept(tile floors on beach) yes sand. They brought a broom to room and we had to clean.Pool and hot tub were never used by us,guess why. Yes, cheap and on the beach but you get what you pay for. Days Inn you have lost us and everyone I can tell too.

A Fair Price for Paradise

Our experiences at Days Inn Ocean Front was excellent with a beach-side room, accommodations for four, a beautiful double waterfall pool and a jacuzzi, the terrific service, delicious continental breakfasts, and a more-than-reasonable room rate, especially for late July. The location complemented our trip--close to everything were did for the three days.. Great.

We were interested in opportunities for the children and there are numerous within a 2 mile strip: charter boat fishing, fishing from the pier, skim-boarding, surfing, parasail trips, dolphin watches, St. Andrews St. Park, excellent dining, and the list goes on.

Great family vacation at a great price!!

We had a wonderful stay. The staff was very friendly and eager to assist with our needs. The hotel was clean, nicely decorated & well maintained. Balcony views were beautiful & you're only steps from the beach. The kids absolutely loved the pool area. They had the best continental breakfast I had ever had!! This was our first trip to PCB, but we will make many return trips & I have no desire to try out another hotel. This hotel was just what we were hoping for!!

Sightseeing tip: Short walk from hotel

HINT #1: The hotel is a very short walk from the pier which provided a beautiful view and great snorkeling & fishing. HINT #2: Bring along a few bathroom rugs to throw on the tile floors. They were a huge help with keeping sandy feet out of the beds!!

Very enjoyable

Very good value for the price, older motel but that did not impact our stay. Everything went well until last night, younger crowd started arriving and it became a little loud. Beach front w/ balcony was great.

Bad idea

The beach and the food were great. Days Inn PC is filthy by far the worst hotel I have ever tried to stay in. Any travel web sites recomending this hotel should remove it from there listing.
