DO NOT BOOK! BLACK MOLD! SECURITY DOOR BASHED IN, LOCK HALF BROKE! WATER DAMMAGE THRUOUT! If it were not for the funeral that needed to be attended, would not have even checked in! NO REFUND OF OTHER NIGHTS STAY AND THE DESK CLERK JUST TURNED HIS BACK AND DISMISSED ME AS IF I DIDN'T EXIST!

What a horrible experience. It was not so much the fact that the front desk lady say she did not know how to pull up a reservation from Expedia, or that her solution was to pay for a room only in cash, or that another guest was complaining about damp carpet in his now moldy smelling room. It was the front desk persons attitude telling me “if you don’t want to pay you can get out because I’m not giving you a room!” Like how you getting mad at me? I’m the one who is supposed to be mad! Lol Anyways drove down two exits and stayed in a great Courtyard Marriott. Stay safe out there!

Double Billed and Very Poor Front Desk Service
Not a good stay. My fight was delayed 14 hours so I arrived at 5am. The desk clerk was asleep and I had to yell to wake her, Desoite having paid for the room 4 months prior, they said they gave away my room because I was late and would have to wait 2 more hours. The night ckerk was rude. There are no chairs in the lobby because of co-vid. Hotels.com intervented when I was told to wait 2 hours. All they had were smoking rooms and they were smelly. None of the electrical outets worked. The Bay Shore Inn double billed me for the fee I paid months earlier. They denied any wrongdoing. I was quiet, but short of that a bad experience. Stay away from the Bay Shore Inn

It was Run down and smelled like an ashtray. They didn’t even have an elevator. and gave me a room on the second floor. I had to carry a heavy suitcase up two flights. After seeing the room and the smell of the place I decided I couldn’t stay there. Disgusting! My first clue should have been the fact that there was just 1 car in the parking lot.

Besides the homeless individuals squatting in/around the property, the busted locks on the side and rear entrances which allowed zero security, the broken glass from the mirrors in the room, the mold on the ceilings, the broken tiles in the bathroom, the broken furniture in the room, the bed which was comparable to sleeping on a slab of concrete, and the plethora of stains on the carpets/bedding, it was a pretty nice time.

For a one night, just passing through, it was okay. Once you get past the “NY” attitude at the front desk, the hallway and rooms wreaked of cigarette smoke. The beds felt like a hardwood floor. Not sure if the sheets were even washed. I do not recommend this hotel.

I liked the price. Very covid conscious. It was a work trip for one night. Didnt like dark lighting, bed like a rock, property was outdated and very worn, no tub just a stall shower, 2 floors no elevator, no coffee or breakfast in lobby (maybe due to covid?), no refrigerator or coffee maker in room. Not for a family.

A place to lay flat for the night.
Cleanliness was fine in the room itself; the hallways looked old, the carpets looked worn, somewhat stained, and smelled odd though not extremely offensive. The whole building looked old. Towels were thin; somehow after using the sink, there was water on the floor, as if there was a leak. Room cleaning was going on at night, and the doors to the building were open. AC worked fine.

A man was beating his woman from 4am to 7am and arguing. When the person next door to me called the front desk they said they didnt hear anything. No further action was taken. When it was time for me to check out around 10am the front desk said they would check the room to make sure she was ok. Scary.
