Days Inn by Wyndham Waynesboro

It’s an older Days Inns, so the rooms were as expected, but they were very clean and the price was great. The location worked well for us, and the owner at the front desk was fantastic, friendly, and accommodating.

The room was dated but clean when I arrived. During my multi-day stay, the refrigerator stopped working, and its replacement failed too. Housekeeping never came, so I got no fresh towels or coffee. I went to the front desk for towels as I’d been told to, but they refused and said I had to wait for housekeeping. With the repeated maintenance problems and no basic guest service, I left early. Expedia tried to reach the property and couldn’t get through, and management declined to resolve things. Avoid this one if you can.

I had a very positive three-day stay. The manager and owner were friendly and helpful, and my recently renovated room looked great. The only issue was weather stripping on the door that needed replacing, but the mild weather meant it wasn’t a problem. It’s right on the main street downtown, with convenience stores and restaurants an easy walk away. Parking can get tight when the place is full, but I always found a spot. It can be a little loud because some long-term guests use the balconies like front porches and socialize where nearby rooms can hear them. It usually doesn’t last long, and management will shut it down if it bothers you. I found the place clean, friendly, and, most of all, affordable. You may not find it in the Michelin Guide, but keep in mind what you paid before complaining about small details. I think the mixed reviews come from the guest population. Many people stay long term and treat the property like home. When the owner asks one to leave for not paying or breaking rules, they may retaliate with bad reviews. The photos of dirty rooms look that way because those rooms have been occupied long term, and the dirt belongs to the guest.

I’m a nurse and stayed here through the snow storm. The room was clean and comfortable, and we got excellent service from the front desk and housekeepers. Thanks for taking good care of us. I’ll probably stay again for the snow storm this coming weekend.
