Days Inn by Wyndham Clearwater/Central

My sister and I went to Clearwater to visit our brother, and this hotel was the closest to his apartment. When I booked, I tried phoning the hotel directly, but was told they "do not give rates out over the phone," and "it would be CHEAPER for us to book directly with Priceline or another such service." We booked our reservation on Oct. 5 (for an Oct. 18th arrival) at $91 per night -- which had to be paid in FULL at the time of booking. The day we got there, the rate was now just $67 per night if memory serves me correctly, but no refund could be obtained because I had had to PREPAY the discount service to obtain the reservation at all, and they do not refund overpayments. The staff were extremely pleasant and kind (the one BRIGHT SPOT to the entire stay), but I would never stay there again.

Disliked: Room smelled "musty". The carpet was so dirty that after walking on it, the bottoms of our feet were literally brown (we guess that the carpet has not been steam cleaned in months, if not years). There are NO towel racks in the room (and only about 5 hangers that are attached to a shelf), and nowhere to hang a nightgown or towel during a shower. Had to put our clothing on top of the closed toilet while showering. The sink area is wide open to the entire room (i.e. not separated by a wall or door). I traveled with my sister, but when washing up in the morning, both of us were fully visible to the other person in the room while undressed.

The hotel claimed that they didn't know of our reservation until that morning that we arrived on March 17 and yet we made the reservation on 2/16/19 so they couldn't give us a king size bed. The lady at the desk actually looked us right in the eye and said "but we've upgraded you to 2 queen sized beds." How the heck is that an upgrade? They made no attempt to try to fix the situation during the entire week that we stayed there. I can't recommend this hotel on this basis and will never stay there again for Phillies spring training.

Liked: It was clean and well kept. Pool was nice and hot tub nice too.
Disliked: Well the bad was that we made reservations on Feb. 16 for a March 17 week stay and the hotel claimed that they only got our reservation that morning so they couldn't give us a king size bed but upgraded up to 2 queen size beds. How the hell is that an upgrade? No attempt at all during the week's stay did they try to get us a king size bed. So, no good review from us and we will never stay there again and never recommend it to our all Phillies' friends.

The only thing that happened was that we had a water leak in the bathroom coming through the wall from another room - we could hear the water running. As soon as they finished showering the leaking stopped. The staff was quick to bring us a bunch of towels. They offered to move us to a new room but we decided to stay in that room since it was just for one night. It was fine, they said they'll get someone to repair it. The breakfast is breads, cereals, oatmeal, yogurt, fruit, waffles. Some hard boiled eggs would be nice. Conveniently located near the concert venue, variety of restaurants and Clearwater Beach. Overall, it was a fine experience.

Liked: The staff were very friendly, helpful, responsive and the room was clean and comfortable; it was a quiet one night stay. Conveniently located near the concert venue, variety of restaurants and Clearwater Beach.
Disliked: It's an older hotel but clean.

Horrible.

Liked: Dude they didn’t give me my refund of my 100$ deposit for the stupid room. this whole company is a scam. and they know it. I was only in my room for like less than an hour , didn’t smoke didn’t do nothing to damage . Wanted to leave bcs the room smelled weird. The Latina girl in the front was already rude and wouldn’t give me any of my money back. YALL THIS PLACE IS A SCAM!!!
Disliked: THE WAY IT SMELLED. The lights didn’t even freaking work In the room. was there less for an hour it’s been a week and I never got my 100$ deposit back. SCAMMERS. Yall gonna get sued

Straight forward hotel, okay for...

Liked: Location was great, friendly staff, decent continental breakfast. The beds were fairly comfortable. Shower was clean and had good water pressure.
Disliked: I had to kill a few cockroaches, and the sink water had a funny smell. The carpet should be replaced by something a little more hygienic. The outlet where the hairdryer is plugged in didn’t work.
