Helpful staff. Room very well appointed, comfortable, excellent modern decor and a good size.
A glitch with the hot water system prevented me having a bath.

No decent eating facilities, the service station quality was poor and the area too busy to enjoy your meal.

Days Inn Hotel Leicester, Leicester - Reviews & Ratings"Sadly we did nit enjoy our stay and did not have a peaceful nights rest :(" (107417320)
The hotel was clean and was fresh smelling.
Tv did not work :( Our room was right at the end of the hotel and it was very, very noisey as all the service station traffic was exiting on the road right outside our room :( We bought breakfast vouchers but did not use them as the food was served in the main service station, and we was not told this. We assumed it was in the hotel!

Problem with initial room allocation dealt with promptly.
First room allocated was not prepared and had had someone smoking in it (forbidden by legislation).

Days Inn Hotel Leicester, Leicester - Reviews & Ratings"Overall, a good value and restful stay." (107702292)
Very comfortable,generally quiet and a very friendly reception.
The service area toilet zone had a fairly unpleasant smell, and the sound proofing between floors in the hotel is less than perfect.

Days Inn Hotel Leicester, Leicester - Reviews & Ratings"overall, stay was good and would consider using this service again in the future..." (107905873)
excellent room. good facilities. just what i required.
when i went to check in, i was informed that there was no reservation in my name even though i had a confirmation print-out with me as proof. the receptionist did give me a room at the rate previously quoted price through online booking so not really a problem. was woke early hours of the morning due to smoke alarm going off but this was due to someone burning some toast so not really hotels fault.

Days Inn Hotel Leicester, Leicester - Reviews & Ratings"Handy location on our journey. Dining area a bit small. This "breakfast area" is confused as it thinks it is a lounge. It is not comfortable having cereals and toast in an armchair. " (107518704)
Internet booking, good value, room and hotel very acceptable. Fair price.
Arrived to be told that the room we had been allocated had been filled. If there was any advantage in booking weeks before by internet, it had been lost. (as we did not know which room we had been allocated, we will never know, but it is a bit off-putting to be told that on arrival and the night receptionist was not impressed that it had been done!)Main complaint was to be woken during the night by a "low-humming" generator or similar going on for sometime. I sleep quite deep yet it woke me once, but it also awoke my wife a few times!
