All was great. The breakfast area needs more tables. There is only 1 so people have to take their food to their rooms which isn’t ideal for sanitation & the cleaners.

The people at Bay City took care of me. I appreciated them when I accidentally booked the wrong night and both the staff and the manager/owner went out of their way to make it right. Good people here.

A few of the machines in the weight room don’t work. Room was decent - carpet and bedspreads better than pictures but bathroom dated as in pictures. A little highway noise but Good value for the price.

Half-way house
I won’t ever stay here again. It is what I think a half-way house is like. No visitors after 10pm, no pets. I called about early check in and they were completely rude. I asked for a later check out and they said they will be fully booked which is a clear lie. I will not ever stay here again.

Super friendly and helpful staff. Facility is older and rates are in keeping with that. I think it represents a solid value.
