The property was in poor shape. Public areas were dirty. The room smelled horribly, the floors were sticky, and the bathroom was full of mold. We were unable to get a refund because we were outside the 15 minute check-in window because we had to wait in line to check out because there was only one person working.

*Warning - hotel kinda scammy. The building is called both Baymont AND Days Inn (they get different reviews that way!) Shame on Expedia for not verifying with SO many bad reviews. 1. No hot tub (filled in with concrete) 2. Sparse breakfast - no waffles. One slice of crispy stale bread left. Basically just donut holes, boiled eggs, cereal, apples, and plain oatmeal packets. 3. Nasty brown-stained sheets. 4. Crumbling bathroom 5. Private fenced patio outside room - filled with beer cans and fries! 6. Loud guests Good-ish things: Pool water was warm. Receptionist nice. Price decent.

AC/Heater didn't initially work. Room was at about 50 degrees when I got there. There are a lot of weekly rental people here from the community. Felt more like a half way house.

The room literally had a dirty dab pen tip inside of it still, and the shower was disgusting. We ended up leaving after we noticed cause it was gross, and the area was NOTHING like the pictures and felt insanely unsafe.

Room was clean beds and bedding were good. It’s older so definitely needs fixing and updating. Says no smoking in rooms or hotel but that’s all you can smell through out. Was not happy about that cause I’m very sensitive to cigarette smoke. Over all it was a place to stay for the night wouldn’t return.

MISREPRESENTATION! DUMP! PASS!

I would avoid this place like the plague!! Absolutely HORRIBLE misrepresentation of the property itself and pics of what the DUMP rooms actually look like is NOT what you get!! I had a hard time figuring out if I was at the right property (which the person working the desk said happens ALL THE TIME), the shower area had hair and dirt all over and was so disgusting I wouldn't put an animal in it , and the big thing they don't tell you is there are 2 hotels in 1 meaning you have what they call "high end" if youre staying through Baymont and also have Days End in the same place where they book a bunch of junkies and criminals on a super cheap weekly rate. The best part is after you check in they send a text asking how they can make your stay better and when you text them back they never respond. If you plan on staying alive and getting any sleep i would stay as far away from this sh$$hole as you can!! I had reserved and paid for 2 nights but valued my safety more and therefore chose to find another hotel.. and its not like I could talk to anyone about my concerns cuz they did a shift change after i checked in and the next person working didn't speak English (or faked he didn't), but he sure had no problem sitting with the "weekly rate hood guests" at the lobby tables and chairs. Maybe if you're a man that carries and you're confident sleeping with 1 eye open you would be comfortable staying here, but anyone else I'd suggest you run away... FAST before they jack your car.

Front desk staff was very rude. I booked my stay 2 months ago when buying event tickets (same night). I called at the time of my booking to inquire about pool. When we arrived (with children who were excited about swimming) I asked about pool location. Staff was rude and pool was down. Kids were upset. I explained that I had called and asked - again he was rude - asked if I had called corporate who knows nothing about their location or if I had called them. I called them. He asked if it was in the last week - I said no - I called at the time of booking. He said - well there it is - pool has only been closed a week. then he said - If you don't like it, go stay somewhere else. Obviously, we stayed anyway. Room wasn't the cleanest. Hallway smelled like someone was smoking pot in a room. We were only there for one night for a popular event - other hotels I had inquired were full. Definitely wouldn't stay there again.
