John Sasha and Diana made my stay wonderful. Nice room. Great mirror, best comfy chair ever. Even a roller computer chair too. I will be back soon.

After reading the reviews(after I purchased the room), I was nervous, but upon arrival and checking in, everything seemed good. We walked in and smelled freshly cleaned. No bugs. No dirty sheets or floors. Everything was great. We did notice our comforter had a burn in it, but it wasn't a deal breaker for us. We love the beach, and we are merely here to shower and sleep. The beds were comfortable, and my kids swam in the pool each night. There was a mini fridge and microwave. The plug ins were really bad,and only 2 worked in our room. Overall was a decent stay. Cold ac, no one messed with us, parking lot was good. Great location.

A very nice place to stay. Rooms were very clean. Beds are comfortable. The handicapped accessible room was awesome. Large bathroom,bathtub has a shower head and grab bars. There is a large seat for people to use at the large sink. They have a nice pool and the staff are very helpful and nice. I definitely recommend this motel. It has a Pizza Hut and a Chic+fil-a within a short walking distance ( basically,next door).

Helped me out after I my last motel canceled on me. staff was super friendly lobby was clean has a cool fish pond. Floor in my room was a little dirty but Understand you get what you pay for with these rooms. If your on vacation and all you need is a shower and some beds then this hotel is perfect. Unbeatable price, good location.

This is my second time staying at the Days inn of Destin. Couldn't find anything to complain about if I wanted to. The rooms are clean and well stocked with towels and toilet paper and coffee pot microwave and refrigerator. John who was working at the front desk was really professional and polite. Also located in between waffle House and Chick-fil-A which are two of my favorite restaurants. Five stars would buy again.

Check in was at 4pm but I called and was told 1:30pm which was great. I got there and there was a situation happening with another person refusing to leave their room. However, the front staff were so nice and kept apologizing for the inconvenience. I was given a keycard, was informed where the pool was and the laundry room. Once we got in the room, everything was clean. The only thing I will say is some of the lights wouldn't turn on. Overall, I enjoyed my stay here.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful Stay for My Bachelorette! Had an amazing experience at this Day’s Inn! The location is perfect—right across the street from the beach and within walking distance of great food spots. The front desk attendant was absolutely lovely and even upgraded our room when she heard it was my Bachelorette trip. The only minor downside was a bit of sand still in the room, but honestly, with the beach that close, it’s to be expected. Would definitely stay here again!
