Days Inn by Wyndham Milan Sandusky South

Days Inn by Wyndham Milan Sandusky South

8/10 Good
"The staff were friendly. Our room was clean for the most part, but not exactly spotless. We enjoyed having the 3 beds a 2 showers for our family of 5. I believe the room must have originally been used for something else, because it didn’t have an actual room number (115). The beds were comfortable. The breakfast was very basic and I definitely missed having hot breakfast options. The hot tub wasn’t working during our 3 night stay."
