Country Inn & Suites By Carlson, Dayton North, OH

Great location. Lots of dining choices. Even better than expected price. Very friendly and professional staff. Pool and some exercise equipment were a plus though I didn't find time to use either. TV channels limited. One movie channel available and not very good picture quality. Two TVs in separate rooms with a door would be great for family with kids if more viewing options were available on the TVs. Sopha bed a little uncomfortable (but what sb is?) Hallways an stairwells could use paint and sink drained painfully slow. Bathroom needed a better venting system and as someone who likes a "hot" shower, the shower could never meet my expectations. This might have been for the best as I would have either frozen or been scalded to death before discovering how to operate the very strange faucet controls. Whoever designed those controls should be slapped .... TWICE. Overall good experience and will be checking this hotel for next year's trip to Dayton.

Was extremely helpfu,courteous,and polite Country Inn Suites Dayton, Ohio

I have stayed at other Country Inn and Suites hotels in other states, and so was expecting a certain level of attention to detail and cleanliness. Location was great- near many restaurants and a Wal mart. Was a little bit of a challenge to figure out where the front door to lobby was- it was a little non-descript and not easy to spot for road- weary travelers. Next door was a hotel at a much lower price point, and so my safety meter went on alert as I was traveling with my teenage daughter. Front desk clerk was pleasant and efficient. Not many cars in the parking lot- and this was a Saturday night so must be a business traveler's place. We were in town for some college open house activities. Opened our room door and it was cold so I went to the heater unit- layers of aged sticky dust were on the louvers- tried to wipe it down as best I could. When you turn on the heater it has that yucky smell of burning dust. We looked at the clock which had not been switched to daylight savings time and figured the room had not been rented for a week, so that adds to the dust factor. The beds were good, clean sheets, no bed bugs. Bathroom looked a littel dated/bedraggled. Shower curtain was way too long and got soaked in soapy residue from the backed up tub with a drain which did not drain too well. The vanity sink drain was even slower, and the faucet had a funny little leak Hair dryer was great, tissue box ran out of scratchy tissues in our one night stay. Coffe maker needed a good over -all cleaning- heating plate was covered in sticky coffe spills. Coffee brand was not my favorite and could only choke down a couple sips. Then, to make our stay all the more memorable, we had hall neighbors who decided to go for an early morning (late night?) swim- all six or seven of them. They were loud and seemed oblivious to common courtesy. I actually opened the door - what a no-no - and "Shooshed" them as they laughed down the hall at 5 am. I know I read the pool hours were 6 am to 12 midnight. They must not have read that. Breakfast was below expectations. The waffle maker was ok but the batter was too sweet and the little cups were not the correct volume to fill the device for proper waffle size- you had to do maybe a cup and a half. The eggs were not tasty and the covered dish was awkward to lift the cover and then spoon out your portion of eggs onto your flimsy styrofaom plate- a true juggling act. The sausage was inedible. The yogurt was good, but I prefer fat-free blends. And I am not a fan of pink- ribbonned items of any sort (this particluar yougurt brand does this). Too many question marks about where/how the donations are spent. SO all in all- we had a roof over our heads, indoor plumbing, and hot water for a shower, an we did not starve, but I work hard for my money and expect a certain attention to detail. If this were my hotel I would be employing the best folks to make it shine. The breakfast staffers talked openly and loudly about the troubles that day with operations. They were probably on-target, but a little unrpofessional in front of clients. Need better training.

Close drive to University of Dayton. Very quiet and clean rooms. Nice selection of shopping and dinning very close.

The stay was very nice, we were visited our daughter who is a student at University of Dayton. It was very convenient to shopping and places to eat. The drive to Dayton is short.

We were moving our daughter into the dorms at University of Dayton. The hotel is about a 12 minute drive from campus and surrounded by numberous fast food resturants, Walmart and Office Max perfect for last minute school shopping.

Everything was fine.

Great hotel. Kids enjoyed the indoor pool, and game room. The hotel is being remodeled, will be even better when it is completed.

Flew in town for a friend's wedding and needed a place to stay for two nights only. Trust my guts instinct and booked this hotel. Wow! I was surprised by its charming, country style beauty and accommadations. Told the front desk reservationist that I'll be back again.

Our initial thought was the it was a nice hotel, bed was comfortable, room appear to be clean, but upon a more detail inspection the room wasn't has clean has it should have been. Items left behind by the previous tenant of the room. But the breakfast was really good and the lady there was very helpful, nice and polite.
