I had a mixed experience at Days Inn Maidstone. The hotel was clean, and the beds were comfortable, which helped me get a decent night's sleep. However, the overall condition felt tired and run down, and the bathroom was a disappointment with visible mould and broken fixtures. Additionally, I was disturbed by noise from refrigerated trucks parked nearby, which significantly impacted my stay.
