### Days Inn by Wyndham Gainesville University I-75

2/10 Terrible

"Best thing was the bed. TV nearly black and white, bathroom sink & tub stained but not cleaned either. Toilet filthy inside and this the 4th room we settled for since was late and other hotels unavailable. As a Wyndham member disappointed to keep purchasing properties and not upgrade or upkeep it. 😩🤔 My friend next door room and and plumbing issues front desk told her she has to do it herself because no one upfront. After asking prior team about their plumbing because 1st room 209 wasn't flushing right and smelled like urine and sewer, so asked for another 2 rooms 309 and 311 issues yub and sink. That's why settled for another room opposite side. Property Management experience kicked in but they denied it. Housekeepers gone by 3/4 pm didn't help. Yes, traveled with our products but plumber too far. "
