Days Inn by Wyndham Blythewood North Columbia

Roaches in the bathroom

We spotted 2 german roaches in the room, 1 found crawling that night and one in the early morning that my wife saw because she refused to sleep knowing they were there.There was no iron, the ironing board cover was filthy, the arm of the desk chair was broken, it appeared that people live in the hotel (grills and empty box for a case of beer was outside of the rooms next door. Front door was locked and no one was at the desk at 6am when we decided to leave but at check-in was told there is continental breakfast.

Arrived in early am. Can only go inside lobby to outter window. Not allowed inside. Difficult seeing rm#’s very small. Got inside room: GRIMY, STICKY, DIRTY. Big bugs! Dead and alive. Stains on pillow cases. I could not risk laying on bed. Rt’d to lobby window. Asked for refund. Mgt agreeable ( sure he’s refunded lotta times) Difficult finding lodging cuz of army base activities @ FT JACKSON in area. Mgt writes apologies. All he has to do is clean this joint!! Wish I could add my photos.

Really enjoyed the hotel. It was in a safe area and also there were plenty of places to eat as well as service stations available.

Reasonable price, clean, convenient. In a nice little town, not too busy. Convenient drive-up to the room door on ground floor.

Upon our arrival the desk clerk was very helpful and courteous. We had a comfortable stay and departed about 730 the next morning. We were traveling north and received a call from an unknown number so we didn't answer. About 5 hours down the road we retrieved a voice message from the assistant manager Ms. Barnham. We had left a backpack with many very important papers,credit cards,passport, etc. Without Ms.Barnhams help we would never gotten across the border to our summer home in Canada. She went above and beyond her job and personaly took the backpack to the closest UPS store and made sure it was packaged, insured and sent north so we could pick it up the next day.

The rooms were fairly clean but reaked of cigarette smoke. They were in desperate need of a fresh paint job, new Toilets and/ or toilet seats. Wipe down the walls and mop the floors. Install air freshners. Make them non smoking units. Just practice cleanliness on a daily basis.

The air conditioner had broken and missing grill. It leaked water all over the LVP flooring. Managements solution was to put a foil pan under it and give me an extra towel to clean up the mess. Cigarette holes in the bed linens. Microwave didn’t work. Less than 1/4 roll of toilet paper with no back up roll in the room. There were coffee packets but no coffee pot to make it in. An iron holder but no iron. A tissue box holder with no tissues. Needs a good scrub and maintenance. When the door is closed I could see daylight at the crack of the door. An unknown person actually attempted to enter my room in the middle of the night. To be fair, it has a convenient location with fast food restaurants close by. The beds were comfortable albeit dubious linens and the water was hot.

The most terrible place I have ever stayed!!!!! The pictures on the website are not pictures there. DIRTY!!!! Holes in the wall, light falling off the wall. Shower rod falling off. Sink wouldn't shut off. No soap. DO NOT STAY THERE!
