Days Inn by Wyndham Kings Dominion Doswell

The service was friendly. The pool was fine but the area surrounding the pool could use some better upkeep as well as the playground area. The picknick area was nice and clean. The parking lot needs some repair as we had a small accident because of broken concrete parking blocks and the exposed rebar. It is a convenient walk to Kings Dominion the restaurant has really good food and service.

Our family decided to hit up Kings Dominion for an evening and following full day trip. I chose this property for our overnight because it appeared to be newly renovated, close proximity to KD and had some amenities that we would enjoy (mini golf, a pool and a playground). I reserved a non-smoking, 2 bed room. Upon entering the room, we were immediately greeted with an overwhelming stench on marijuana. Always fun explaining that smell to kids. The pool water was green and it was clearly not open. The mini golf turf was ripped up. The grounds were unkempt. It seems that the only renovating that was done here was a fresh coat of paint. The pictures on this listing look nothing like what we experienced. I was denied a refund and we left to go find a different place to stay for the night. Luckily, none of us contracted hepatitis, tetanus and/or scabies while on the property. I certainly hope hotels.com makes the owner of this property update their listing to reflect the actual conditions but I took some pictures to help out. Enjoy!

We have stayed 3 times in the last month with 4 kids and the rooms are great the space is great the pool is nice definitely will be back soon

Do not waste your time. The proximity to Kings Dominion is NOT worth staying here. Everything smelled like weed and cigarettes. All of the trash cans on the property were overflowing with trash all over the ground. The property was covered in cigarette butts. The AC unit was leaking puddles of water all over the floor and they said that was normal. We tried to take our daughters to the pool and there was a group of middle aged adults blasting extremely inappropriate music, smoking weed and yelling obscene language. Not to mention that the pool water was warmer than the 95 degree air so it felt disgusting. I wouldn’t let my daughters play on the play ground because, from looking around, I had no clue what they would find. We came back from breakfast at 10am on check out day (check out is at 11am) and neither of our keys worked, so we were left standing in the heat while my husband had to walk to the front of the property to get a new key. There were dogs barking all day and night in other rooms. It was all around an awful experience. Save yourself the headache ESPECIALLY if you have small kids. It’s not a family friendly environment at all.

We booked this hotel through Expedia for a trip with three families and requested in advance to have adjoining rooms. Unfortunately, when we arrived, the front desk had no record of that request. They were able to rearrange the rooms on the spot, which we appreciated, but the issues didn’t stop there. Out of the three rooms, one didn’t have a hair dryer at all, and another had a broken one. When we informed the front desk, they told us we could go into another room and use the hair dryer there — not exactly the most convenient fix. Also, one of the TVs had a cracked screen and didn’t work, and the bathroom paint was noticeably peeling. As for the free breakfast — technically, yes, there is something, but calling it a “breakfast” is a stretch. A few kinds of yogurt, two kinds of juice, and coffee were all that was offered. If you want something filling in the morning, I highly recommend bringing your own food. On the bright side: the hotel is very close to Kings Dominion, check-out is at 11am, there’s a nice outdoor area with a playground and space to walk, and — perhaps most importantly — there were no bedbugs. After everything else, that actually felt like a small victory. If you just need a place to sleep and don’t care too much about cleanliness or broken amenities, this place might be okay. Just keep your expectations low and your snacks ready.

It is in the same parking lot as Kings Dominion - so we were able to walk there from our room. That makes staying there totally worth it. The bathrooms could use a little tlc- especially the tub/shower. It was great for one night. The pool and play area looked like it would be great for families.

This property needs to be clean around trash cans outside and the inside the floors where dirty. The Ice machine didn't work. It was very close to Kings Dimonion. If it was not the the location to the park. I would not have stayed there.

My husband and I stopped here for a night with our 4 kids and our dog. We booked two rooms that were side by side. When we first got there, none of the key cards were working, but the staff was very quick to get it all straightened out, and ensured that everything was working correctly for us. There was a huge parking lot for ample parking. The hotel rooms overlooked the Kings Dominion parking lot. The rooms were decent and clean. The AC was not turned on when we got to our rooms, so it took some time for them to cool down, but not too long. There is an authentic Mexican restaurant next door that was fantastic!

Breakfast was awful, 4am i had to ask other residents to get away from our door and quieten down, pool was open unt 2am but closed at 8am? How are we serving breakfast from yesterday and no silverware either?

Hotel staff is very friendly and polite. But the room was gross in every possible way. Hair on the floor. Dead bugs. Like the gloor hadn't been clean in a long time. Grime on the walls. Just super gnarly in ways I haven't experienced like ever before. But the bed was comfortable, playground was great, and the pool was enjoyable. So thjs place has lots of potential if it "tried".

Would NOT recommend staying here. The rooms smelled of mold (I still can’t get the smell of mold off my clothes after washing them several times). The bathrooms were not very clean. I woke up with small bites and have a feeling the bed had bed bugs. Do NOT stay here.

This was a clean, comfortable room for one night to go to Kings Dominion. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was clean but very small and dated. The area around the buildings could’ve been cleaner. We would stay again for a visit to the park.

The staff was very friendly and incredibly helpful. It looks like they have been working to fix the place up. It definitely seen better days. The property was very quiet and I felt safe. My only concern was cleanliness. The toilet had urine around the base that was thick and looks to have not been cleaned in months. The tub had soap from the last tenants still in it which gave me indication it hadn't been cleaned between tenants. Also the tub would not drain which is very unhygenic especially since I was not sure it was cleaned between the last tenants. Finally there was a lot trash and cigarette butts along the grounds.

Shower curtain was moldy,needs replacing,other than that pretty good stay

Dirty

The staff was very friendly and nice, but the room smells like cigarettes and the bathroom wasn’t very clean.

Very dirty. Asked to be switched to another room it was equally dirty. Left after one night and found a different place to stay.

Beds were comfortable, good water pressure for shower.Room was nice and cool while it was in the 90s outside. Literally right beside king dominions parking lot. Not much as far as breakfast. We stayed 3 nights though and they never once cleaned or refreshed our towels or toilet paper .

Looks nothing like pictures online. No hot breakfast, or breakfast area,only yogurt, some type breakfast bar, orange. I wasn't familiar with the area, had no idea it was so far away from restaurants and stores, not a good location if you don't have a vehicle.The room was renovated nicely but the wifi never worked.People above my room were very loud and making noise until 2am.

The room offers mini kitchen in the room including stove tops, microwave, full-size fridge and freezer and small sink. But there were neither pots and pans nor utensils in the room. Microwave was placed on a shelf where you need to be 6’ tall to use safely. The faucet was broken that it splashed water from the side, and the sink took 15 minutes to drain water. The air from air conditioner smelled like mold so we did not used though it would be very tough to stay if the weather was as nice as it was. The room looked updated some point, but the business does not seem care details and don’t seem to check it before handing keys to customers….just lower quality standard. This is nothing new nowadays, unfortunately….

This hotel was so convenient to go to KD. We just walked into the park from the hotel. The place was very tidy and we slept very well. The only issues were the bathroom door didn’t shut, I believe it was freshly painted because there was dried paint all over the floor. The toilet was severely cracked and water was leaking from the tank, and the toilet wouldn’t stop running the entire night due to not enough water being in the tank. There’s no way they didn’t see the toilet in that condition, the cracks are very obvious and I wouldn’t be surprised if it completely breaks open one evening while guests are there. The night attendant was very friendly and I felt safe being there with my child. Overall I’d definitely stay there every time I go to Kings Dominion, I just hope I’d get a different room.

Everything was fine. Clean, updated room. Quiet. Only problem we had was the outlet in the dressing room didn't work.

Location was fantastic. Walked to and from Kings Dominion. Bed comfort was good. Loved full sized fridge with freezer. Shower was good but kept coming full force out of tub at same time. Would definitely stay again. Didn't use pool as we utilized water park that day.

The room was nice. But the internet was out the whole time we was there so the tv didn’t work.

Bugs in the bathroom. Cable tv did not work.

Horrible horrible water pressure! Good luck getting clean or girls washing their hair. I don't know if it's just our room or the whole building but it's pretty bad. Also a lot of loud kids running around the halls screaming and slamming doors; parents aren't correcting them so thinking I should step in and let the kids know when they aren't being neighborly.

Waking up to the train passing threw

We know this hotel was recently renovated, and they did a great job. Some of the older features are still noticeable, but the upgrades to maintain an existing structure are great. With proximity to the park and the super comfortable beds, we will definitely stay here again!

The workers at this place are so sketchy and unsafe. We got locked out of our room for an hour and no one could figure it out and they were getting nasty with us like it was our fault. The one worker was completely drunk and incoherent and touched my young daughters. He cornered us in the doorway and told us we didn't have to get our stuff out until morning if we wanted to. We said absolutely not. You're not going to try and steal from us. We packed up our stuff and left immediately. We never stayed.

The check in was prompt and friendly. Amazing customer services in and out.

Great staff, clean and comfortable room

The rooms were not properly maintained. Door does not work, have to renew keyfobs everyday. Management not willing to help. False advertising. They should say limited breakfast served. List goes on!!

Nicer than expected. Room was clean, staff was friendly. Would stay again.

We tried to stay but your franchise checked someone else in our reservation and then was the manager was extremely rude and made it out that it was our fault they checked someone else else in under our reservation.

Quick check in, friendly & helpful staff.

Friendly staff and easy walk to Kings Dominion

Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a staycation and planning on going to Kingsdl Dominion. Its literally a 3 mintute walk to park enterance, no need to drive and pay for parking.

It was definitely worth the money & walking distance to Kings dominion. I would stay again

Location is right across from Kings Dominium

I called upon arrival and spoke to someone about an early check in. The person I spoke to was very curtsy and allowed us an early check in. I am very thankful of this, drove 8 1/2 hours over night to get there and unfortunate events happing on the way we very much needed an early check in. We will stay with them every time we visit Kings Daminion. It was also very convenient being right next to the theme park we just walked over. Thank you for the lovely stay.

hotel was nice and clean, and the staff were great. we also enjoyed the mexican restaurant beside it as well. the best part was not having to pay for parking at Kings Dominion! we were able to walk back and forth to the park when needed!

Great location and excellent customer service. Mexican Restaurant adjacent to the hotel was excellent. Food was really fresh and nicely presented. Margaritas were huge.

Very sketchy area, front desk staff not present, complimentary “breakfast” consisted of one orange in a bowl, a few chocolate mini muffins, and a few containers of yogurt. Rooms appeared clean but had a funky smell and lock did not work. Shower dated but good water pressure. Beds broken and noisy- we all woke up every time my son moved. Coffee was tasty though.

Breakfast was awful, 4am i had to ask other residents to get away from our door and quieten down, pool was open unt 2am but closed at 8am? How are we serving breakfast from yesterday and no silverware either?

I had a very bad experience with the property. The bathrooms were leaking from the top. The floors were dusty and had many spiders. The adjacent rooms were very noisy and we could even hear the next door murmurs. The adjacent rooms had a dog and there was continuous barking in the middle of the night. The breakfast option is just for namesake. Overall a terrible experience.

The desk agent was nice but the stay was weird .. the extra lock on door didn't work. The breakfast was lame ..
