Editor's Analysis
Updated on Feb 28, 2012
Overview
The Days Inn Toronto East Beaches hotel is located well to the east of downtown Toronto, on the north side of Queen Street. Situated just to the north of Woodbine Park and Ashbridge's Bay Park, this hotel is close to popular recreational areas in Toronto, including the Beaches Boardwalk.

The hotel's proximity to downtown Toronto's Financial District is about 7.4kms while the CN Tower, which is also near the Rogers Centre and the Air Canada Centre, is about 7kms away (all distances: Google Maps).

The hotel, which is 100% non-smoking, offers free breakfast, free Wifi, free newspapers, and free parking. All guestrooms have fridges, in-room coffee makers, air conditioning, irons and ironing boards, and cable television.

Guest rooms, none of which accommodate pets, vary on their bedding but cannot accommodate more than four people. Rooms with either two queen beds or two double beds are common with other rooms having either one king or one queen.

Check in time is after 3pm while check out time is before 11am. The hotel recognizes and participates in the Wyndham Rewards loyalty program.
The Good
Guests who stayed at the Days Inn Toronto East Beaches often had good things to say about the staff, the rooms, the location, and/or the value they received for the price paid.

Pertaining to the staff, guests often described them as friendly, helpful, and accommodating with only the occasional comment that suggested the opposite. The rooms were often described as clean and comfortable while multiple guests specifically mentioned the comfort of the beds in particular. 

Numerous guests stated that they liked something about the location of the hotel. Being close to some of the beaches on the northern shore of Lake Ontario was the main compliment for the hotel's location while others liked being near shops and restaurants.

Guests who commented on the value they received for the price paid generally said they were happy with their room rate. Some guests also felt they received extra value while staying at this hotel because their room rate included free parking, free breakfast, and free Internet. Additionally, a few guests found a local pub that gave discounts to guests who stayed at the Days Inn Toronto East Beaches.

The Bad
Some guests who stayed at this hotel did not have a pleasant experience. 

The guests who complained about the property often said that the rooms were unclean, with multiple guests seeming somewhat emotional or adamant about their criticisms. Some guests who commented on the Internet at the property said that they had trouble with its service speed. 

Guests occasionally mentioned noise concerns with their rooms and then blamed various sources. Of these sources, the air conditioning was frequently mentioned.

Less frequent concerns for the hotel pertained to the breakfast, which multiple guests called small. Others thought the hotel needed improved maintenance as it seemed old and dark. 

Occasionally, guests received something different than what they thought they actually reserved in regard to their hotel's room size or proximity to the beaches (ie. they thought the hotel was on the beach as opposed to being a block or two north).

While guests generally reviewed the staff with approval, some guests had minor run-ins with hotel employees and did not think well of them as a result.
Booking.com guest ratings averaged to 7.8 points out of 10 based on 58 reviews.

Expedia.ca guest ratings averaged to 3.9 out of 5 and 89% of guests recommended the hotel.

TripAdvisor.com had 53 reviews and this hotel ranked 82nd of 120 Toronto hotels.

"Excellent housekeeping staff; 50/50 on the front desk"
"Good - Housekeeping staff is AWESOME! They took very good care of us while we were there. It was always good to get back to the room and it was not only cleaned up, but organized again. Could be better - About 50/50 on the front desk guys. Two of the 4 of them were very helpful, while the other two had to be "urged" along to help. The two that were helpful were very nice, and quite responsive to our questions. The other two needed a bit more "prodding" or pushing before they'd go the extra mile. The housekeeping staff saved the day for my ever even considering returning to this hotel or recommending it (along with the two guys at the front desk who were more helpful). Oh, and PLEASE INSTALL AN ELEVATOR!!! Gees! Getting luggage up the two small flights of stairs is no easy feat!"

Verified Guest from Swatiska, ON CA rated Days Inn - Toronto East Beaches 7 out of 10 on November 23, 2009 Verified Guest Hotel Review

"The main problem I had was trying to make a phone call. The first time I tried the call did not go through. The next time I got an operator who still did not solve the problem. A call to the front desk clarified what was wrong and how to place the call. I was charged for three phone calls. After debating it with the person on the desk at checkout for about 5 minutes. He finally refunded the two calls that didn't go through. I was being charged $1.00 + taxes for each call made. I will stay there again because of the closeness to the hospital, but would not stay there for any other reason."

Emer from Ottawa, ON CA rated Days Inn - Toronto East Beaches 8 out of 10 on September 27, 2009 Verified Guest Hotel Review

"The hotel is very conveniently located, clean and comfortable. The doors are not soundproof. If someone is talking in the corridor, you can hear everything they say. There is no bank machine in the hotel and the clerk at the desk didn't seem to know where we could find one. A bit frustrating. The cleaning staff do a good job, are friendly and quite willing to accommodate special requests (e.g. for blankets, pillows, etc)"

Adele from Tichborne, ON CA rated Days Inn - Toronto East Beaches 4 out of 10 on August 29, 2009 Verified Guest Hotel Review

"it is not a location for older guests. I attended a beach Volleyballevent and chose the hotel for its proximity to the event.Having a horde of hungry athletes in a small room for breakfast made it impossible to find room to eat, found it impossible to get selection of food and the tables were filthy. The staff were not numerous enough and certainly not equipped to handle a situation that the hotel should have foreseen."

Carole from Regina, SK CA rated Days Inn - Toronto East Beaches 8 out of 10 on November 05, 2006 Verified Guest Hotel Review

"I would be willing to pay more to have the hotel just a little more modern (i.e. an elevator might be nice for the elderly as well). The rooms were well kept but well worn. You might note by the phone that you have to phone the front desk before making a local call or it will ring busy. Most hotels/motels have figured out how to monitor without imposing on the guests. You have the cornered the market as there is no alternative in the beaches area so you could really profit from upscaling it."

"Staff very helpful, gave great directions for travel. Although it's some distance from downtown, the Queen St. streetcar runs right outside the door and it's a direct run to the downtown core (skydome, CN tower, etc.) The Beaches district is really nice too -- little shops and cafes, and of course the beach nearby. Lastly, there's a great pub right next door!"

"Arrived at noon and was told the room would be ready at 3 pm. Came back later at 4:30 and the room was still not ready. We asked the manager to do something as we needed to get changed for a dinner party, finally it was the maid who took matters in hand and insisted to the manager that he put us into another room. The maid was very friendly and helpful. We use this hotel 6 or 7 times per year and this is the first problem we've encountered. It will not deter us from returning."
