Anton, using Day use room @Courtyard By Marriott Redwood City

December 2025

Stayed there many times in the past year, but this time they charged $23 of security deposit for nothing.... Opened dispute for this fraudulent transaction.

Paul, using Day use room @Pullman Miami Airport

December 2025

Poor in every way from check-in staff, bar staff and room. The hotel had a power cut when we arrived, was taken up to a room which wasn’t finished being cleaned, weren’t given a room key. The room was old, musty and in need of a total refurb, dirty torn carpets and a dirty bathroom. Ordered lunch at the pool bar and the service from the barman was rude, abrupt and unprofessional. The only positive point was the shuttle service & driver. Not worth the money considering we were charged $151 for the privilege!!!

Room below standard , smelly, not clean, would not recommend this as a dayroom between flights.

RS, using Day use room @Ly New York Hotel

December 2025

I was given a no-show when I did show up on time and the staff was incredibly rude and cancelled my room by the time I showed up. It also costed me an expensive cab ride and had to call another one.

When I got there, they had no record of my reservation and were completely booked. I had to go to another hotel.

Al, using Day use room @Ibis Budget Manchester Airport

December 2025

We wanted to a room after long haul night flight before returning home. We got to the hotel but they could not find our booking which we’d booked and paid for over a month prior. It took 3 staff including manager an hour to get us checked in despite me showing them confirmation. This wasn’t acceptable and very disappointing service will not use again

Response from HotelsByDay December 18, 2025

Hey Al,

I'm really sorry to hear about this experience. Issues locating a booking at check-in should not happen, and we understand how disruptive that can be.

Day-use bookings are handled through a different reservation system than overnight stays, and in some cases, staff may not check the correct place even when a confirmation is provided. We'll be sure to share your feedback with the hotel so they're aware of what occurred.

Thanks for taking the time to share this and for booking through HotelsByDay.

Steve Anderson , using Day use room @Hotel Dena, Pasadena Los Angeles, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel

December 2025

Just completed my stay at Dena hotel. The ecperience was not what I expected from a luxurious high end property. The room was fairly decent with a great bed and TV. Lighting was good, heating and A/C was also exceptional. But the bathroom sucked. The sink was very small and the fixture was glued to the edge of the sink. How is one expected to wash their hands. The shower was beyond horrible with a curtain rather than door. The shower head was on the wrong wall which sprayed water past the curtain to the outside. Clearly designed for handicapped people but very poorly built. Very small and lots of empty unused space. Hardly any towels for two guests. I am extremely disappointed, let alone disgusted. If I stay here again, it had better not happen again as I would have paid the same price for another room. And the girl at the front desk was a poor excuse for an employee with her attitude. What does that mean you checked in early ?? Are you kidding me ???

Because I made the cancellation of the reservation and they ended up charging me the reservation price... and they don't want to refund the money... bad service

Rene Alcayaga, using Day use room @Nautilus Sonesta Miami Beach

November 2025

I am a travel agent, and I have always wanted to see the Nautilus hotel. On November 24th, I disembarked from a cruise at 8 AM and had to wait until 8:45 PM for my flight, so it would be an excellent opportunity to visit the hotel and enjoy its facilities on a perfect beach day. My surprise was that upon arrival, the entire pool area was under renovation or maintenance, and I had no opportunity to enjoy anything since the beach is not to my liking. I hope that in future occasions, there can be a warning that the hotel is undergoing maintenance to avoid unpleasant surprises that ruin your day.

Bhavik, using Day use room @Fairfield Inn & Suites Guelph

November 2025

Front desk lady was rude, Upon arrival instead of greeting she rudely ask are you here for delivery? What are you delivering? I told her that I have a booking here what is included in the stay? She said just the room while on the booking website listed many few amenities. She checked in and gave me the key but didn’t show me the directions which way to go nothing and surprisingly she was front desk manager. I have been to many different marriot hotels around the world but by far this is the worst. Not returning here or probably anyother marriot hotel. Then room was too noisy.

Response from hotel November 25, 2025

Dear Sir,

Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your experience while staying with us. Your experience of us not being friendly or flexible is below our standard. Unfortunately the day your booking was we had a sold out hotel with sports teams, we try to control the noise levels as best as possible but are not always successful with that many guests in the hotel.

As we are a limited service property we do not have the same amenities as a full service property, we do have all the amenities per Marriott standards. Providing the highest level of hospitality is our number one priority and I sincerely apologize for failing to meet your expectations. I have shared your feedback with the leadership team to ensure the necessary guidelines are in place and reviewed to prevent this from occurring in the future. I hope you choose to stay with us again when your travels bring you back to the area.

Rod, using Day use room @Les Suites Hotel Ottawa

November 2025

Hotel has spacious and nice rooms but Management needs refresh. Room not ready on check-in and then construction noise for 4 hours during stay making sleep impossible. This on-going work was not mentioned when booking.

Response from HotelsByDay January 2, 2026

Hi Rod,

We're sorry this experience didn't work out, especially with the room not being ready and the noise during your stay.

Unfortunately, not all partner hotels proactively share updates on renovations, upgrades, or construction. The hotel manages these on-site matters, but we'll make sure this feedback is shared so they're aware of how it impacted your stay.

We appreciate you taking the time to let us know.

Elijah, using Day use room @Les Suites Hotel Ottawa

November 2025

It was a terrible experience for one main reason—the drilling and construction were extremely disturbing and disruptive. Unfortunately, I couldn’t work in such a terrible environment. I want my money back!

Response from HotelsByDay January 2, 2026

Hi Elijah,

We're sorry to hear this was so disruptive. The hotel manages construction and renovation activity, and not all partner properties proactively communicate updates in advance.

We'll make sure this feedback is shared so the hotel knows about how it affected your ability to use the space.

We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope to serve you again.

Kristina Anna Maria, using Day use room @Hotel Croydon

November 2025

Never got the room, the hotel had cancelled my booking

Response from HotelsByDay January 2, 2026

Hi Kristina,

We're sorry to hear you weren't able to use the room.

Day-use bookings are handled through a different system than overnight stays, and in rare cases, this can lead to confusion at check-in. We'll make sure to share this feedback so the situation can be reviewed.

We appreciate you taking the time to let us know.
