Dear Ken,Thank you for staying and for the top rating review. I do provide a guide for the area which points out many scenic places near by. Especially, Mill Creek Park, one of the most beautiful parks in the country. Enjoyed having you and look forward to your next visit.

The room was clean and efficient for my needs. It was reasonably priced considering how prices have gone up lately all over. Minimal coffee in the morning but if you are a drinker they sell six packs in the office . Minimal local tv. Extremely basic cable.

Dear Gerald,Thanks for mentioning the room was clean and efficient. The clerk is responsible for fresh 24/7 unlimited coffee, I will look into what happened. My guess is your TV channels need reprogrammed because we offer over 70 channels of all types including ESPN and Disney. Thanks for staing and appreciate the feedback!

No pool as advertised. Very old and run down. Burn holes in bed cover. Restaurant/ bar was inedible. Eggs were so greasy that I couldn’t eat them. It was quiet in spite of being a truck stop so I did get some sleep on rock hard bed. Had signed, saying soft beds, but I believe that was a joke.

Thank you for staying. I will review my ads and remove any mention of a pool. I am in the process of upgrading the beds and apologize you found your bed not ideal. Thanks again!

I apologize that your room wasn't excellent, I will personally look into what happened. We do care and would have either offered you a full refund or another room. Stink bugs can be a nuisance but I haven't seen one of late. I will definitely check into this situation.

Dont judge a book by its cover
Place definitely takes the dont judge a book by its cover to the extreme. Looks iffy from pictures and physically outside but the room was impressive. The bed was less than impressive and the pillows but it was not a deal breaker. I would give this place a 8/10 stars , good place for a night if you need to stay someplace quick.

No Frills Fair Value
Friendly owners. This is a perfect no-frills room. Clean and no issues. And convenient to many restaurants/gas stations on main road. Trucks idling constantly at the Pilot station across from room were kinda annoying. But the place served purpose as just a crash pad for biking trip I was there for.

When has a new motel been built in last 25-35 years. Does this motel need upgrades? YES. Does it need new modern furniture? YES. Did the cleaning personal do a bad job of cleaning? NO. Is this motel clean and is the bathroom clean to the best they can? YES. If you want more stay some where else. If you want to get a good nights sleep here's the place.

The location was good. It's on a major road that let us get around to nearby places, although the proximity of a truck stop meant some late night noise. Staff were all friendly and helpful, and I appreciated the free coffee in the office. The property is on the older side, which meant that nonsmoking rooms still had residual odors, there are bugs around, and some of the fixings were well-worn. We had a problem with a broken sink in our original room, but they made it easy to move to another. Overall a pretty good value.

Dear James,Thank you for staying and for your gracious review. Understandably Davis Motel, a family owned and managed business for over six decades, is not a modern matchbox franchised facility however we work hard to offer a clean, reasonable priced and comfortable rooms with amenities that often surpass them. For example, bedside phone charges, free Wife and cable, with ESPN, Disney and over 60 other channels, great hot water pressure which makes for one of the best shower experiences than any other hotel or motel anywhere and there much more, free bottomless coffee available in are 24/7 office, complementary gift bag on arrival and great room front parking, yes there even more, dead bolt locks and 24 hour on premise manager to handle any issues, monitored security cameras 24/7, full service restaurant and lounge next door and a complementary area guide to all local attractions, plus the owner who is well versed in the area's history and is happy to assist you in exploring the truly historic places and events. Basically, what I am trying to convey is that Davis Motel has been in business long enough, for over half a century, that we have the confidence and experience to offer any traveler to the area a good value with hospitality a value we honor and respect. Thanks again

Many aspects go into creating an atmosphere of hospitality, one of these aspects is friendly and swift check in. For example, offering are exclusive Davis Motel welcome bag at check in, explaining location of room, best parking, eating and local tourist and recreational activities. Youngstown has a beautiful park system and world class free Art museum. We have a complementary convention and bureau magazine available in the office that gives excellent information on all these locations and activities.Another important part of creating an atmosphere of hospitality is providing convenient amenities and features in the room. For example, bedside phone chargers and great water pressure with plenty of hot water for showering and or baths. Free WiFi and over 60 channels of cable, including Disney and ESPN.Of course, cleanliness is key to providing a five star motel experience and are experience cleaning personnel work hard to provide fresh clean rooms.Thanks again,Murray
