Days Inn by Wyndham Pensacola - Historic Downtown

Days Inn by Wyndham Pensacola - Historic Downtown

8/10 Good
"Staff was very friendly and helpful each time I had an interaction with them. Check in was smooth and easy. The 2nd day our keys did not work, had to go back to get new keys and when we got back to the room, still not working (finally got it to open) (I think the door battery was dying) I did call and they came and fixed it. Room was clean, did smell a little "wet and moist" but it was over 100 degrees outside and the air unit is trying to keep up. The noise level for traffic and such was fine, we did have a few very noisy neighbors really late and really early in the morning, but that is not the hotels fault, and if it wasn't for them, we would have never know anyone else was there. I would stay again it did the job for a couple of nights."
