Days Inn Syracuse University

We booked this place online rather than
because it was cheaper we got a king size for 67 $ which is not bad at all!
Checkin was super easy the girl at the service was very sweet and super nice! Our room was clean and well stocked!
To my surprise we got a call from the front desk making sure everything was okay which is awesome!
We honesty enjoyed our stay but I would suggest only for a short stay

Stayed there during Thanksgiving 2012 holiday. Newly remodeled (paint, carpet, and furniture upgrades) rooms, improved counter staff, new breakfast room, value priced.

This dump isn’t worthy of a 1 star. Too bad negative stars can’t be given!!! Screaming and yelling in the halls at all hours of the night, no management around to help, when there is management around they are barely even 21 years of age and very obvious no training occurred. The elevator was broken and the rooms are gross and filthy. The beds are old, the box springs creak when you roll over and the televisions are old tubes coated in dust. Just lovely to see burn holes in the curtains and the carpeting is disgusting. Safer and more comfortable to sleep in your rental car then stay at this GROSS PLACE!!!

I first stayed in this hotel 2 years ago — Winter of 2008 — and while nothing stood out, it worked fine as a clean and quiet place to sleep midway through a long drive. A more recent visit really disappointed, and made me wonder if management had changed, as things had clearly gone downhill.
The basic hotel facility is still fine, not too dirty or damaged or outdated for a place where you can stay for less than $ 50 a night. But the attention to detail on even the basic stuff you expect at this kind of place was off. Our room, supposedly a non-​smoking room, clearly smelled of smoke, and we saw hotel staff smoking in less than ideal places. One staff member was leaning out a cracked door smoking a cigarette. It was a cold day, but staff should not smoke in public areas in the hotel.
Also, our room was sadly under equipped. Only two tiny towels were there, no coffee maker in the room, and worst of all, the toilet paper had not been restocked. Only a few sheets were left on the roll and there was no back up. The shower curtain in the bathroom was also ripped and had not been replaced. We were able to get more toilet paper at the front desk, and slept well enough and left in the morning, but the number of things not being attended to here strike me as a sign of problems within the hotel management, and make me unlikely to ever stay here again.

Seriously, the only thing that went right was the door locked.
As far as what went wrong; there were no towels in the room, the bedding was ripped, there was no remote for the TV, there was no sink in the bathroom and someone’s used soap was in the shower. I had to wait hours to just to get towels. I would never, ever, stay here again.
