Very good hotel, wonderful pool, poor breakfast.
Pros:

It’s a very pleasant hotel, with an elegant modern lobby. The room was large, with comfortable beds, fridge, microwave and coffee maker.
The pool is wonderful. It’s slightly larger than the usually very small hotel pools. Its space is beautiful with a wooden high ceiling and lots of natural light. Another plus is that it’s open from 7 AM to midnight.
It’s not in a pretty location but there are some chain restaurants within walking distance. It’s very close to a freeway entrance.
Friendly helpful staff at the reception as well as the lady taking care of the breakfast (not her fault that the breakfast was poor!)

Cons:

The breakfast was poor. There was something that looked like a cross between scrambled eggs and a pudding. You couldn’t tell if there were real eggs in it or what other super processed stuff it contained. Would have been nice to have at least some simple boiled eggs.
There was yogurt but ultra processed. No natural yogurt only the kind containing lots of sugar, starch and gum.
No decent fruit; there were some tasteless apples and oranges in a fridge! Why in a fridge??? The cold oranges were so hard you couldn’t chew them.
I didn’t take points off for this because I don’t consider the breakfast that important.

Great value for the money with conveniences nearby! Clean and comfortable.
Pros:

This hotel met our expectations with no issues! The staff was great, rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good. The area offers a few restaurants and gas station within walking distance or a quick drive across the street. The area seemed to be safe and clean. Fair price and great location!

Cons:

No issues.

Pros:

Updated hotel. Location.

Cons:

Pretty expensive. I had called three days ahead of time to ask for rooms close together. The attendant said that she forget to check the notes and tge hotel was booked so she couldn't accommodate that request.

0/10 tried to scam me out of my money and argued with me over the phone also the place has mold
Pros:

Nada

Cons:

Everything, it had mold and they charged me for unnecessary charges had the audacity to argue with me over the phone when they tried to scam me. Initially had the king room suite booked but put me in a 2 queen bed with mold because i brought an animal which they never told me i could bring my pet in the king suite over the phone so i was genuinely upset about and they also never told me it was $25 a night the have the cat said i should learn how to read she was very rude. I spent alot of money jst to be treated like a POS if you want my opinion there was very much alot more better hotels in the area that id recommend. Do not go here!!

Nothing special, disappointed pool not available as advertised, would not recommend.
Pros:

Location was close to highway, restaurants close by.
We had 2 children with us and had driven all day, we were looking for hotel with pool.

Cons:

The pool was closed for maintenance, (6/27, a Saturday night in June) so we were very very disappointed by this, had we known ahead of time we would not have stayed at Baymont. Hotel could use an update, bathrooms not “sparkling” clean. Breakfast not served till 7:00, we had to leave a bit earlier, at 6:45, at that time there was no breakfast service in sight.
