Hotels Near Frontier Park Inclusive Playground and Splashpad in Show Low

My husband and I stayed here two nights. Our room was nice. The bed was extremely comfortable. There was no street noise. I would recommend this hotel to someone staying in Show Low. I liked that each side of the king-sized bed had a large nightstand with a reading light. I liked that the sink area had a small nightlight built into the electric socket. We had brought our own nightlight, but I am happy the hotel provided one. The room had one upholstered arm chair plus an upholstered swivel desk chair with no arms The seating was comfortable. (I would have preferred two upholstered arm chairs, since I ended up sitting on the bed.) I liked the desk lamp. I did not need to fumble for a switch; all I had to do was touch a pad near the base of the lamp. The lamp had settings for low medium, high, and off. I liked that the refrigerator was big enough to lay several bottles of water flat. We put additional bottles in the door rack. The room also had a microwave and a coffee maker that we did not use. I liked that the air conditioning worked and was not overly loud. I liked how the room had three layers of curtains so that you could adjust the amount of light entering the room. I liked that the room had a small closet with sufficient hangers. There was an iron and ironing board. I wish there had been a towel rack by the sink. I put the face towel next to the sink, but it got wet from sink use. The sink and its counter were conveniently located near the entryway. The bathroom contained only the toilet and the bathtub/shower. We found the bathtub drain difficult to operate. You were supposed to push a circular plate to make the stopper pop up and release. A part fell off. My husband managed to adjust it so the tub would drain. The bathroom had a motion-activated fan. Every time I walked into the room, the fan turned on. I suppose that frequent fan use helps dry out the room and prevent mold, but I found the noise annoying. What was really annoying is that the fan stayed on for several minutes after the occupant left the bathroom. I finally figured out that there was a small button that you could push to turn off the fan. Thereafter I turned off the fan every time I left the bathroom. The room had an alarm clock that we did not want to sound in the middle of the night. My husband could not get the alarm to turn to the off position, so he unplugged the clock. One morning at the hotel, we sat in the breakfast room for quite a while reading the newspaper and drinking coffee. We had other breakfast plans so we did not sample the food. I will note that the hotel had more extensive food offerings than many other mid-priced hotels. I saw cheese omelets under a heat lamp, Chobani yogurt cups, raisins, dried cranberries, chopped nuts, half and half creamer capsules, two nondairy creamers dispensers, plus other more common offerings. A staff person came by frequently to clean the breakfast room and check the coffee urns. I liked that

Show Low is beautiful and we went to check on a 5th wheel trailer we purchased last summer to see how it was holding up during this cold winter. There are a lot of motels in Show Low but we took a chance on this Days Inn for our 3 day stay and very happy we did. The rooms were small but neat and clean. Not a 5 star but very efficient and we could not hear our neighbors. The best part is that the family that runs the motel also has the Show Low Cafe on site and this is where we got our free breakfast. The decor is Americana, and they love the military and veterans. The food was home style and very good. If we need to go in winter to check on our trailer again, this is the place we will stay. Super friendly and accommodating staff too.

We got there earlier than expected so bought some lunch and ate in a very nice park near Safeway. A very modest looking hotel but prove to be one of the best on our trip. Checked in and given water and cookies as BW members. Given room at the very back which proved very large and spacious. Plenty of thick towels and bedding good quality, nice bouncy pillows. A/C quiet at night so slept well. Breakfast was very good! Just about everything including toothpicks! Very nice staff and enjoyed our quick chat with lady on desk during checkout. Recommended but a pool would have been the icing on the cake. Tip : take the 260 to Fort Apache historical park. A lovely ride especially onwards from White River to the Salt River Canyon - spectacular!

The TV didn't work something to do with the DirecTV box I power cycled it worked for a few minutes shut down. Most of the outlets were non-functional. Room seemed clean but bed smelled somewhat maybe from pets being in the room that didn't bother me much I have dogs not with me on this trip. The breakfast was nasty bread was stale, orange juice machine not working had a sign pointed to a refrigerator had couple of Sunny D jugs in it. Butter cups the plastic lids just pushed in was likely way past use by date. The butter smelled rancid was odd brownish color. The dining room was dark no lights on barely see anything in the room this was early in the morning about 6:30 am. I told the man at the desk about the TV he just shrugged went back to playing with his phone. The door in the back leading out to the parking lot was broken. Doorjamb was damaged like someone had kicked it out bent the strike plate door would not close all the way the card key lock was useless. I gave it 2 stars because they do allow pets in the rooms even though I didn't have any. I suppose it's tolerable for one night, but I would not stay longer. While it was cheapest in town about $30 more a night could have been lot better.
