I had a really disappointing experience at this hotel. The rooms were in terrible shape, and service was lacking. The breakfast situation was a mess, with barely any food available. On the plus side, I was able to voice my concerns and get some assistance, but it ultimately still left a bad taste in my mouth.

My stay at this hotel was an absolute nightmare. The rooms were in terrible condition, filthy, and poorly maintained. The service was unhelpful and rude, making for a truly awful experience. While the staff were nice, it didn’t make up for the uncleanliness and overall lack of care. I definitely would not recommend staying here unless drastic changes are made.

I stayed at the Days Inn during a trip with friends, and overall, I was quite surprised. While the hotel is older and a bit worn down, it was largely clean and didn't have bugs, which is a plus. The free breakfast exceeded my expectations, offering fresh fruit, donuts, and more. However, the facilities could use some attention, and my friend had a pretty rough experience with their room, which definitely detracted from the stay.

The rooms were okay for an older motel, but some lack proper maintenance. One friend had a door issue that made them feel unsafe.

My stay at Days Inn in Tell City was far from pleasant. We encountered numerous issues, including poor cleanliness and unfriendly service. On the upside, the location is decent for those visiting Holiday World, but I wouldn't recommend staying here due to the overall lack of upkeep and comfort.
