Days Inn Shreveport

This is a terrible, little motel. Don’t stay here.
Cockroaches and rumors of bed bugs… and rooms without secure locks – drug deals in the parking lot.
You are a fool to stay here. There are better options for much less within the block. Unsafe.
This system would not allow me to give 0 stars but that’s what I would give it.

Awful, awful, awful! Dirty doesn’t cover it. The rooms are filthy, reek of smoke, bathrooms are a mess. If we had time, I would have left and found other accommodations. Believe me you don’t want to stay here. never again will I book a room without checking reviews. Too many complaints to list all but after reading others reviews while I sit here I’m telling you they are all true. No stars on this place! Apparently I can’t post if I don’t select at least one star so I’ll give it a negative one. Yuck

If I could give this place negative stars I would. Where do I begin?
— Bullets holes… seriously? The back of the door had a clear bullet hole in it.
— There was feces in the corner of the room… FECES!!! Why is that acceptable?
— If the hotel caught on fire we wouldn’t know. The fire alarm was not attached to the wall at all. All there is on the wall is a hole with wires sticking out of it.
— The part of town we were in was horrible. We had our male friends escort us to our room that was next door. That’s how nervous we were.
— Things were not clean at all. I feel like I’m going to have to take a bleach bath when I get home.
Overall…I wouldn’t even let my worst enemy sleep in this place.

If I could give this place a negative star, I would.
The Good: front of the facility looks nice.
That’s where it ends
The Bad: The smoke detector in our room was broken.
Two electrical outlets were hanging out of the wall with exposed wires.
The carpet «crunched» when you walked.
There was some dark bodily fluid on the inside of my comforter. The coffee maker didn’t work. The blow dryer didn’t work (to be fair, the listing only said they were IN the room, not anything about actual working appliances)
The phone didn’t work.
There was a 2 inch gap under the door.
The door only closed when forcibly pushed.
There were random shady characters being loud and loitering on the top floor at all hours of the night.
The pool was covered in a green film, still full of water.
The steps to the 3^rd floor were COVERED in ciggie butts.
The room reeked of smoke.
The bathroom had no windows or working vent, so all the steam just builds up and makes the ceiling rust and flake.
The bathtub is chipped and mold all around the caulk.
The toilet moves A LOT when you sit down, I thought I was going thru the floor for a few seconds.
THe floor is very uneven and you feel like everything is sliding to the middle of the room, like there is a large dip there.
Sadly, I booked thru Priceline so I was unable to get a refund, but I moved to the Ramada across the street because I’d stayed there before and KNOW the rooms are recently renovated and lovely

My family and I were traveling back home, and needed a place to stay overnight. We seen that this place had rooms available for 3 people on a Friday for just over $ 40. Good price, decent looking neighborhood, free breakfast; why not? After checking in, I quickly realized as to why the price was that low. Here’s a quick list of the not so favorable conditions:
— the TV was broken (the outside case was cracked, as if someone had dropped it)
— the mirror and picture were broken (not shattered though; I could see that as a health and safety hazard)
— after three changes of sheets, we finally got clean (ish) ones that weren’t covered in lint or stains from assorted fluids
— stains on the floor
— stains on the chairs
— as mentioned before, even though these are supposed to be non-​smoking rooms, they reek of the odors of assorted smokes, the walls show it on the paint, and there is a film on just about everything
— the breakfast in the morning was very skimpy and under-​managed. There was only toast left by the time we got there, around 8:30 (it closes at 10:00am); we waited 30 mins for 8 packets of oatmeal to be brought out
There are other instances, but they are mostly personal preferences (such as there being a firm bed instead of soft), physical building issues (such as there was a small 3″ ledge in the middle of the room from where the foundation shifted), and non-​required items (such as a LCD TV, instead of a CRT).
We just needed a place to stay for a single night, and left as soon as possible in the morning. Meanwhile, we keep watch on our Highlander. To put it simply: the price is decent, but you really do get what you pay for. I can’t recommend for a multi-​night stay, and can hardly recommend this place for a single night. If you need a cheap place to crash for a night, and are running out of options, this may be for you.

DO. NOT. STAY. HERE. I checked in, viewed the room, and immediately checked out. You get what you pay for. It’s cheap for a reason. If you don’t mind being trailed by questionable characters, or given a «non-​smoking» room that smells like weed, with a phone that doesn’t work, then this is the place for you. If you have any kind of standards, then pay a little extra and stay somewhere else.
