Hotel scam
There was no room for the reservation number so I was scammed by hotels.com because American inn said they don’t do business with hotels.com

I didn’t like it, when we first got there it was super hot the ac was not on and it was like 100 degrees. The shower was dirty and the room looked like they don’t clean it good. The restroom door was broken it didn’t close. I won’t go there again.

Then the first room the air conditioner didn’t work while it was 100° the second room the TV didn’t work but the air work it was dirty the sheets had cigarette holes several the bathroom towel rack was falling off a terrible odor in the bathroom noises outside the entire night. And someone knocked on our door at 11 PM it was just a bad experience after 50 years of going to hotels

Nightmare on Charter Way
This place is unexceptable and should not be an option on hotels.com and have the nerve to charge almost 100.00 a night! That is not fair and the pics they have on the site are no way near it's actual condition!! If I figure out how to upload these actual photos I will post them as well.

Cheap but not worth it.
Avoid this hotel, there are homeless people EVERYWHERE, the place is run down and dirty. This is know to locals as the place to get prostitutes. Do yourself a favor and avoid staying in Stockton all together.

Where to start! I showed up at the bullet proof glass window in the office to check in and their credit card machine wasn't working. The hotel wanted cash. I didn't happen to have $200+ on me. Thank goodness I chose to pay through Expedia. Nevertheless, the hotel still demanded $20 for a single, plastic, room key card, that only worked the first time I used it. Had to get another. The long list of hotel rules posted at the front door starts with No Prostitution and No Drugs. I was given no directions to my room and wandered around the complex trying to find it. Once found, I opened the door only to see the room hadn't been cleaned since the last guest. Back to the office for another room. There were pieces of clothing in the stairwell, and the stairwell smelled of urine. On my second day, there were different pieces of clothing in the stairwell. Getting undressed there seems to be a regular event. I stepped out of the shower (filthy shower curtain) to a graying, threadbare towel, only to find no hair dryer--and this only 40 minutes before I had to give a major presentation. One of the reasons I selected this hotel was because it had a refrigerator in the room. It didn't work! Throw in a sticky floor, a noisy heater, and a crummy neighborhood and you get the full picture. I'm no travel princess--I've stayed in 3rd rate places all around the world--but this was a new low for a U.S. hotel.

We were trying to check in at 6 pm Lobby was all locked up and a small window to check 3 parties in Outside were many people hanging around no wonder their lobby was locked up We felt very uncomfortable and did not stay there We called the phone number listed on their hotel information and it went to a private home I called the fax number listed on the same sheet and then the hotel answered I told them we did not want to stay there and they said they couldn't cancel our reservation and they told me to call Expedia to cancel I explained to Expedia about the situation and he called the hotel direct and when he returned to our conversation he said the manager would not be in until 8/23/18 I have been a customer for several years and have never felt threatened or unsafe in all my hotel stays I am going to fight our room charge even thought I didn't pay at the hotel as confirmed and we could not stay in an unsafe enviroment

The worst place I have ever stayed. Management rude. $20. 00 required for the key. Motel it's self is ok but carpet badly stained. The place was full, fight both sides of our room. Lots of permanent residence. NO breakfast as advertised ( full breakfast) I felt unsafe. Be wise read all reviews I didn't. Never stay in this area.

Weekend stay
The room was clean, the bed comfortable. No problem whatsoever with the room. The only problem I found was in the morning when I went to have breakfast and I asked for a glass of water the employee that was there told me he did not have water and the only excuse he gave me was that he was the new manager. Well for a new manager he is not managing the place well.

Fantastic Staff - nice clean motel - rooms recently remodeled
The motel is located in a struggling city, and the local neighborhood is a bit rough on the edges, however, the motel is nice and clean! The rooms are relatively new.. The staff is great, and the locals around the area are super friendly. There are restaurants and a couple small grocery stores all within walking distance. There are homeless and beggars in the neighborhood, but all were friendly and respectful to me, I never felt threatened. If you need a place to stay in Stockton I would recommend this hotel as a clean, safe and cost effective place to stay....

False Advertising
I did my research before booking and decided on this place because it had ask the requirements I was looking for at a reasonable rate ... However ... many things were NOT as advertised. 1. The pool was shut down by the city so we could not use it. (After traveling over 9 hours in 100+ degree temperatures to get there, my 10 year old was NOT happy ... And he wasn't the only one! ) 2. Our room may have been cleaned before we arrived, but there was only 1 towel in the bathroom. When we asked for more, the manager argued with us and said they always put two in the bathroom. After arguing with us, he literally came to our room to look in the bathroom and see if we were telling the truth. Then he didn't want to give us 4 towels - even though we were booked accurately as a party of 4. 3. When we got there, the A/C wasn't on in the room, and it was about 95 degrees INSIDE the room. 4. The "breakfast" was a joke. Cold cereal and bread ... I will never stay here again, and furthermore, will think twice (at least ) before starting at ANY Days Inn.

Nice and peaceful
The staff were absolutely wonderful with their warm hospitality; there's stores for just about anything you can think of nearby; peaceful. If I had to say one bad thing about my stay is the room access. The door to the room had issues reading the key that was given to me. It was 2am and I had to call the front desk; even though I woke up the guy that worked there out of a dead sleep, he wasn't bothered or irritated.

The manager is crazy! He was almost abusing me for using Hotels.com to book the hotel saying something about having to pay commission. The hotel was nice, got a nice queen bed. We were comfy. Nice clean towels, coffee machine and hair dryer actually works in this hotel, for a change.

Rude staff
Stopped on my way to Sacramento. I ask the staff for a room they said they didn't have any. I went on line and booked a room at the same hotel. I checked in and I asked the lady why she was not renting the room, she didn't reply. The hotel was half empty. The room was not clean and the furniture was ruined.
