Florence Day's Inn (or Hampton Inn Florence)

Steve’s take

Florence, South Carolina — the Griswold family's I-95 overnight of choice. It's exactly the right distance from both the Northeast and Florida to make sense as a sleep stop. The Day's Inn off I-95 has free breakfast, a pool the kids will swim in for exactly twelve minutes before declaring it 'cold,' and a Bojangles within walking distance. Welcome to paradise.
