The location was the best choice for what I needed to accomplish locally. Parking was fine for my stay but due to the property layout, I can see issues when the University has events or on Holidays.

All the vending and ice machines were not working due to storms, which I understand, but I wish we were made aware so I could’ve brought snacks and drink. Breakfast the next day was disappointing. Not a lot of options. The staff was friendly and the rooms were clean. Comfy beds

We stay often in State College and were happy with our stay at Days Inn. The rooms were very clean, the front desk staff was helpful and friendly, and the rates were very affordable compared to other locations. The free breakfast was basic but enough-hard boiled eggs, bagels, muffins, and fruit and yogurt cups with a waffle maker for the kids. If you're looking for a clean, affordable place to stay in SC, this is it.

A good, clean place to stay at a reasonable price. The only thing I did not like was their free wi-fi, which was essentially unusable. (Every browser I used refused to let me login to their portal site, claiming severe security concerns. So I never once obtained Internet access.)

The check in was horrible. They didn't have my reservation. I had to then leave parents weekend to go back and speak to the manager. Who blamed booking w a 3rd party for my canceled reservation. After I called directly to the hotel saying I was checking in late and had my confirmation number. I had to pay extra to uber to the hotel and uber back to parents weekend.

The Days in by Wyndham on Atherton in State College PA turned out to be a very nice stay. The hotel staff was friendly. The room was spacious and extremely clean. The bathroom was roomy, and I like the fact that it had shampoos and body wash available in the shower. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was simple, but good. I enjoyed the waffles. There were choices of waffles,yogurt, hard-boiled eggs, bagels, muffins, fruit, coffee, and juices.

It’s ok for the price. Breakfast is simple with no hot foods. Waffles, bagels, muffins, cereal, milk, juices. The shower water pressure is the low point: as weak as my will to go to the gym.
