I can not tell you how disappointed I was in this hotel. Filthy, is the only way I can describe it. Hallways, room, all of it. I would not even touch the arms of the sofa or chairs due to the build up of crud on them. Carpet soiled. Coffee maker hadn't been cleaned since last use. Maid service knocked to "remind" us of time change and ask when we were leaving?!? We still had... More

I hadn’t stayed at this hotel for a few years. When booking a room in Sydney recently, I checked on this hotels website and saw in their description, “The 165 room hotel boasts newly renovated guest rooms”. Based on this, I decided to give them another try. I learned to my chagrin after checking out my room that the claim on the website should have read “The 165 room hotel boasts SOME newly renovated guest... More

Older hotel that really needs to update for curb appeal. Hotel is great for families. Okay for business travellers. Time for new carpet in the fitness centre - looks like the chlorine from the pool mechanical room has taken its toll. More

Nice, clean pool and hot tub, dry sauna, exercise room. Pet friendly rooms are on the lower floor, and no elevator to this level. Great outdoor space for the dogs. Rooms are a little dated, but very clean, and beds are comfortable. Lots of pillows, AC worked great. Kids love the pool area, and hotel is central to Sydney downtown, easy trip to WalMart Sydney River, Tim Horton's and the like. Restaurant is ok for... More

We slept in the most amazing bed ever. My partner and I are very particular about where we lay our heads at night. The room we stayed in was wonderful in particular the bed. We couldn't wait to go to bed at night just so we could enjoy sleeping in the bed. The room was very tastefully decorated to our surprize, nice decor and artwork. The ladies in the dining room were very friendly, not... More

When we checked in and got to our room, we realized that we were right next to the guest laundry facilities and ice and pop machines. We went back up to the desk and asked if we could move as we thought it might be noisy. The front desk person seemed a bit perturbed and said they hadn't had any complaints about noise before. She did put us into another room. This hotel needs updating!... More

I was travelling with my wife and mother-in-law and we decided to make the stop in Sydney before embarking on our trek around the Cabot Trail. We booked ahead to try and ensure a decent room, it was difficult to try to find a Hotel in Sydney that met our criteria, reasonable rate, 2 Queen Beds and Breakfast included. I guess many people stop here when going on to the ferry to NFLD. When we... More

Upon arrival, we had to walk a mile to our "1st" room on the 2nd floor. The room stunk and was extremely out-dated and you could not open a window. Internet did not work. Called the front desk and they told us to call the Tech Support. Called the 1-800 number and was on the phone for half an hour to find out that the hotel's router was the issue. The Tech support called the... More

I have family in the area and stay at this Days Inn while I visit. When my grandmother was discharged early from the hospital the front desk staff were able to find a handicap accessible room near the lobby on short notice. They were kind and accomodating at every interaction. The housekeeping staff were also great: when We let the room attendant in the hallway know we only needed the trash taken and tpwels chamge...
