The property is a Days Inn, nowhere is it advertised as a Knights Stay Inn on the building or the sign. Reception area is disorganized and does not look anything like the advertised images. I did book a smoking room, so I am not surprised that it smelt of stale smoke, however, no effort was made to mitigate the smell by the property. The walls had smoke staining and other miscellaneous marks/stains. The sheets had burn holes, rips, and stains. The images of the rooms advertised was not reflexive of the current condition of the rooms. Pool was closed completely. There is a constant whirring sound regardless of the hour or location on property. It appears that they tried to renovate the showers, however, the shower curtain did not protect the floor from getting completely soaked from the shower head. The room did not appear to have been swept any time before my stay, and only one towel was provided and not replaced.

Our stay was fine but it would have been nice to have been given a heads up that we were looking for a Day’s Inn and not a Knights Inn like we thought we booked. We drove by it like 3 times!! Update the sign or let people know they’re looking for a Day’s Inn. TY

There actually wasn't one thing I liked about this property! When I first arrived, they tried putting us in a room that WAS NOT cleaned, the beds were a mess and there was food and drinks laying around everywhere. THEN when we got put in a different room, we left and came back from the store, our key wasn't working, so I went to the front desk and they said my room that I had ALREADY stayed in, was in some other persons name and that we were in their system under a completely different room then the first two! So they had to switch us to that room in their system! The person that was there wasn't even aware of what had happened. Another thing I wasn't fond of was AS SOON AS I got out of my car and tried to go inside the first room some man walked out of the room beside that one and asked me to bum a cigarette! It was VERY unclean and they whole staff I encountered was VERY rude and unprofessional! I will NOT be going back to this hotel!!! Also if I hadn't of already paid for the room for two nights I would have left that night we got there! I wasted my money on this place and it is very upsetting!

The pictures on your website are from a magazine not this property. I reserved 2 beds and end up in a king bed for 2 nights. Luckily i packed up all our belongings after the 1st night and sure enough there was someone else in our room when we returned, them they gave us a room nextdoor which was also already occupied. Then they gave us what they considered a new room. The only thing new was the desk chair, 2 new lamps and a new sick. But let me mention a toilet that ran all night long. I worked on it as well as my father. They didn't take it seriously the next morning so I hope they enjoy thete hefty water bill. I think they cater to people that have been evicted from there home. My idea of renovated means the whole room not just maintaining it. Very old and not maintained.

Well first thing I was booked into a room and when I opened the door there was a lady already laying in the bed and I didn't get there until late so it 2:00 in the morning with temperatures in the single digits I had to go back out into the code and go back up to the front desk and get a newer and that room the heat had been off all day and by the time it finally heated up it was time for me to leave. So really it was just a waste of my money all the way around and I think I should be refunded that money
