I must disagree with the reviews I read on this site for this Baymont. The only thing I can surmise is that people have different standards as to what “clean” means.
The First Room
The first room the manager gave me was on the first floor around the back. It didn't look too safe, but he assured me that it was. The handle of the door has some gunk that had spilled on it. It clearly needed to be wiped off. When I went in, I noticed a few little gnats flying around. Near the edges of the wall was debris that the vacuum had not picked up (little wrappers of some sort). I pulled back the comforter and one of them was filthy, cigarette holes burned through and stains. The bathtub was absolutely disgusting. It was clear to me that whoever had maintained this hotel had not ensured that housekeeping was doing a good job. If a tub is cleaned thoroughly everyday, it should not look like that. The bottom was very dirty and you would need flip flops (or perhaps steel toed boots) to feel comfortable showering in it. I killed a fly as I was looking around the room. I noticed that the deadbolt lock on the door didn't work - the door would not close properly - the frame seemed to be misaligned. That was the dealbreaker for me. So I breathed a sigh of relief thinking that surely there was a better room. I went back to the front desk and the manager happily reassigned me to another room.
The Second Room
The second room was on the second floor near the pool. This one was worse. Pulling back the comforters revealed more stains and filth on the underside of the comforter. The sheets were thin and worn, though seemed clean perhaps in that dingy clean sort of way. They had clearly seen better days. I checked out the bathroom and saw an ant happily marching across the sink. Combine that with the stinging in my eyes since this was clearly a smoking room and you have yet another room that I could not stay in. I decided to sit down and figure out what to do, but I couldn't because there was a nasty stain on the desk chair. Teary-eyed from the smoky haze in the room, I decided that I needed to find another place to stay.
The good part about this hotel was that it was easy to find and the manager was very nice. He said he would not charge me for the room, though I had reserved it.
So in the end, I did not stay here. I was totally disgusted by this place and found somewhere else to stay for the evening.
