Days Inn by Wyndham Pensacola - Historic Downtown

We picked this place because it was near the venue we were going to, which made getting there easy. The room was comfortable, clean, and everything worked. It could use an air freshener. Nothing fancy or especially luxurious, but it did the job for a simple stay.

I had a king room that looked and smelled clean, and being able to park right outside was handy. The front desk person was attentive, easy to talk with about my concerns, and answered my questions. There’s a gym made from a converted hotel room, with an elliptical, treadmill, weights, and a bench. Palafox Market was about a 10-15 walk away. I’d come back when I’m in Pensacola again.

Dominic deserves a shout-out for five star customer service. This is an older place and could use upgrades and some maintenance, but at this price it’s a great value. It’s near the airport, close to just about everything, and surrounded by food trucks, small businesses, and local places to eat. For my 3-day business trip it worked perfectly, and it even had a functioning ice machine, which is one of my personal hotel benchmarks. The room was well equipped and very clean for a budget stay. You can tell it’s seen decades of spring break and winter rentals with several college students crammed in, but the room itself was great. Loved the Sunshine button on the mirror! I’d recommend it to family, friends, and colleagues.

Breakfast is a nice extra, and it’s usually quiet and peaceful here. I’ve stayed several times, and for the last 2 yrs this has been my pick. Check-in service was fabulous again. I only stayed 2 days this time, so I didn’t need housekeeping, but they’ve always done a wonderful job on longer visits. The room is nice for the price, though the hotel is older and historic. I enjoy staying here and plan to keep coming back. They have smoking rooms, and if those are sold out, you can step outside to a very nice smoking area.
