High Risk

Days Inn has a thin inspection record, with only two visits on file so far. The latest inspection on file is from Dec 14, 2022. Diners may want to take note: high risk reflects issues that a health inspector considered important. No fresh inspection data is available: the latest entry for Days Inn dates to Dec 14, 2022.

The picture has gotten worse over the last few visits, with the average climbing from around four violations to closer to eight violations.

Across the inspection history, “live” is the issue that surfaces most often, recorded two times.

That's lower than the typical St. Petersburg restaurant, which scores around 77. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
