Ibis Shanghai Waigaoqiao (Opening in September 2009), Terre Haute

I have never stayed in place like this before.I was in town for my grandpa's furneral so really didn't need anymore stress. I was afraid to let my 11 month old baby crawl on the floors. The pictures on the website need to be updated. Because that is NOT what the hotel looks like anymore. I would have rather been camping outside then stay in that hotel. The air conditioning didn't work, the halls and rooms smelled like body odor. I wouldn't send my enemy to stay there. If you are thinking of staying here please please think again.

MY GOSH THIS IS THE WORST PLACE I HAVE EVER STAYED AT IN MY LIFE. I LIVE IN MOTELS DUE TO MY WORK AND I BROUGHT MY FAMILY FOR THE FIRST TIME AND I DONT THINK THEY WILL RECOVER FROM THIS EXPIERENCE. WE HAD TO SWITCH ROOMS FOUR TIMES IN 6 DAYS BECAUSE OF THE PLUMBING, THE T.V. MOLD, AND STINCH OF THE ROOMS. MANAGER IS ONLY THERE SO HE CAN SELL THE PLACE AND GIVES NO CARE TO HIS CUSTOMERS. PLEASE AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST AND YOU WILL BE MUCH HAPPIER ELSE WHERE BELIEVE ME. YOU HAVE BEEN WORNED.

Owner was very nice and hospitable. For the price is not bad, yes it needs some upgrading and cleaning, but you get what you pay for. A very convenient location. Finally you can go some where and be treated with respect and kindness. Sometimes we have to overlook luxury and be thankful for receiving kindness and respect, especially nowadays.

I wish I had read these reviews before staying there in June '07. They are all very true. Smelly, dirty, scary. Besides obviously the owner, I blame the corporate office of Days Inn, Inc. They should not allow this franchise to remain. I have stayed in decent Days Inns and this one gives the chain a very bad name.

I would highly recommend that people go elsewhere. I assumed that the name carried with it a reasonable hotel stay. The one positive was that this place was within a good distance from restaurants and my destination. However, the hotel is disgusting. The hallway leading to the room was smelly from the old carpeting that should have been removed, it was beyond cleaning. The stinch was of smelly feet, mildew, and possibly vomit. I couldn't believe that I was stuck there for three days. I called other hotels attempting to leave once I discovered the condition of Days Inn, but was out of luck. The other hotels were booked by that time. The bathroom smelled like mildew, the tv didn't work, and the ceiling was falling apart. I didn't expect a resort style hotel, but neither did I anticipate a garbage dump. The bathroom counter top was falling down and anything I placed up there would slide down and onto the floor. It was just downright nasty!
