Days Inn Austin Crossroads

Not so secure place to plan your stay!

I traveled all over the state and I have stayed at place from four stars Venetain to one star YMCA Inn, so I have seem them all. This Days Inn isn't so bad as far as service or the cleanliness, but they definitely have major issue with security.

I was given room*101 at the corner of the first floor and one night after I came back from the meeting. My room was broken in from the window, which I have checked it was locked before I stepped out the door. There wasn't any sign of force entry, the window was broken, the window net was taken down from outside and place on the side of the curve.

I immediately reported to the authority and filed a case. The have found finger prints and shoe prints from the window and the investigation is still undergoing.

I'll take this as a lesson, no more first floor room for me!!!

A budget property offering more amenities than its similarly priced cousins.

The Scene
Sporting a fresh face, the guest rooms and public facilities at this well-kept property are a step above those at many other interstate inns. The interior hallways are protected by 24-hour security cameras, and guests have the peace of mind that comes with an electronic key card system for all rooms. Although the hotel does not offer a dining facility, it is just a quick drive from Bennigan's, Old San Francisco Steak House, Chili's and Pappadeaux's.

The Details
This inn is especially popular with parents traveling with kids. Several family-friendly features include a game room, outdoor pool, laundry facilities and cribs upon request. There is also a corporate VIP floor. Although its accommodations seem on par with the standard rooms, they include coffeemakers and irons with ironing boards.
