Days Inn by Wyndham Victoria Uptown
Stay was great and the restaurant for breakfast was great as well. Just confused about the housekeeping situation. We did not request any for the length of our stay as instructed by the front desk person. Then the day before we checked out our room was cleaned. Not a big deal, just confusing.
