#1 - The Days Inn @ Carrol, Iowa does NOT honor the room rates that are shown on the Days Inn website so be prepared to pay way more than the website says it will cost you.
#2 - Staff is unwilling to make unruly & out of control guests quite down the noise so you can get some sleep. I was told after all the rowdy ones were paying customers and they could not offend them. Gee, I was paying over $100.00 a night but that did not matter to staff.
#3 - There is a card on the nighstand that claims to save water they will remake your bed using the same bedding. It does NOT happen as we had to make our own beds as no one showed up to do it. Saving water is just a bunny hugger go green sales pitch that in reality is to improve their profit margin as they do not have to pay employees to do it. Wouldn't you think at $100.00 (+) per night they could at least stop by and make your bed.

The only problem with this motel that I could find would be it's breakfast. They had waffles and that was about it. Some fruit - no bananas. No donuts - they had mini blueberry muffins that were very dry - but that was about it. Selections could have been better.

On the flip side - check in was easy - we didn't have reservations. All that was available was a couple of queen suites which were OK with us. Price was reasonable. Rooms were very large and the beds were so COMFY. I don't think we ever have stayed at a hotel with as nice of beds as these were.

Pool was a little on the small side - but it was never crowded.

Would I stay here again when visiting Carroll, Iowa - you bet I would.

I have been dealing with really bad hotels in this area for a while now and this hotel has changed this and I so happy! The beds are great and the rooms a roomy. Carroll also is a pretty safe town I've never had any problems in their parking lot. The breakfast is standard and not that great and sometimes the staff can be a little icy but the comfort of the hotel by far makes up for any minor negative. This is much nicer than your average Days Inn!

I had extended family come to town and they stayed at the Days Inn and it worked out great. We also stayed there one night so all of the kids could play in the pool. The hotel was clean and everything is new so it is a very nice place. The big rooms with the 3 queen beds also were perfect for our group and were a great value.
