Days Inn

Has anyone stayed at the Days Inn or the Ramada Inn?
Could you tell me a bit about what the rooms are like??
(beds, kitchen, bath etc???)

Thanks for all your help

Ramada

I was in the ramada chillin with some friends. Everything looked really clean and nice! Except its at the end of the strip the furthest away from the super clubs, but.........you can always drive down there! Not much activity happening behind the hotel, but most people just hang behind the superclubs during the day! Hope that helps a little! Enjoy

Days Inn

I stayed at the Days Inn a couple of years ago (my first time to PCB) and I thought it was alright. There isn't a whole lot of action when compared to the Holiday Inn, but there's still plenty of people to mingle with. One nice thing is that it is real close to Harpoon Harry's and Latitudes which were pretty cool. If you want to go to Lavela or Spinny's, they have shuttle buses you can hop on. Hope that helps.

The rooms at Days Inn have a fridge. And, I think they may have a microwave as well. Depending on what type of room you get, you can trade in a kitchen area for an extra bedroom.

I think the more expensive room has the kitchen-ette. In my opinon, it's not worth it. I'd rather have the extra bedroom, which is really nice, because it provides a little privacy from your roommates.

The rooms are decent, with a GREAT view. As someone else said, it sucks that it's far away from the best clubs, but there will still be plenty of people where you're staying.

Oh, and all of the rooms are ocean view.

What else do you want to know about? I've stayed here twice.

lol, yeah, it is kind of "gay" for another man to say "SexyMan". I might have to change that.

Check-in wasn't too bad. Just avoid check-out time...which usually runs from 10:30 to about noon. I've been here twice, and have never had to wait more than 5 minutes to check in. My guess is that the popular check in time is about 3:00pm. So, if you can...avoid that.

I went through expedia.com to get my room. I think they offer just a little discount from what the hotel offers. I don't know if ALL of the rooms have either a kitchenette or an extra bedroom. I think they may have 3 different styles of rooms, but I'm not sure. I've had one room with the extra bedroom, and one room with the kitchenette. I'd say if you're going to have more than 3 people in the room, get the extra bedroom. The extra bedroom has a huge bed (it's more like 2 hotel double sized beds put together). And you can close the door to separate yourself from your roommates if you need to.

Outdoor pool that you share with Ramada Inn. But, the pool is huge. There's a hot tub out there too. I'm not sure about the Tiki bar. I know they have one, but I never visit it, so I don't know what it's like. The whole set up is pretty nice though.

Umm...you know, that's a good question. I don't remember. I think there might have been a deposit for people under a certain age...like 25 or something like that.
