After reading the reviews on our way to the hotel we ALMOST ditched it and stayed somewhere else. We are SO happy we didn't! The outside of the building looks like it has been redone and the landscaping flowers were a nice touch! Plenty of on site parking, which was great! The husband wife that checked us in were both super polite and friendly and check in was quick! Love that they offered us complimentary cold water! The sitting area to the right when you walk in looks to have been updated with cute furniture! Our room was nice/clean, it had new wood flooring, the bed was clean and made nicely. We liked the sink/vanity being seperate from the toilet/shower. TV, refrigerator, microwave and air conditioning worked great also! When we returned from our day we had a great conversation with the married couple (staff) again! Upon arriving we did not smell an odor that people have been complaining about, but when we came back we did and if you do your research it is from the mills in Kaukauna, which is no fault of the hotel. The smell was basically contained to the lobby area because of the door opening and closing and did not smell at all in our room! Breakfast was a normal continental breakfast and the presentation was nice! We enjoyed our stay and would definitely return! Thanks Days Inn!
