We came here because my grandparents wanted to stay at a baymont hotel. I booked this one for them and they wanted me to stay too so i booked here as well. Firstly the parking lot. Pistachio seeds everywhere and a man pulling up his pants..We got in and the charged us an early fee of 50 dollars plus a security deposit of 50 dollars and then the price for the two rooms. I wasnt even aware of the 50 dollar early check in because the person at the front desk was hard to understand. No where does it say online that there is an early check in fee. I was livid. 200 dollars and 100 of it is in fees. And things only got worse when we got into the room... we walked in and there was a red stain on the carpet that looked like blood, there was a piss smell coming from by the air conditioning unit like someone decided to use the floor as a bathroom. The toliet seat was broken, the yoliet paper hilder was broken, the bedsheets had dirt on them, the shower was leaking, and there was mold all over the bathroom celing specifically in the shower. I was getting married the next day and this was such a mood killer. I am extremely allergic to mold and we had to leave the room. We were able to talk to the manager and he vouldnt even process a refund for me but told me i needed to dispute with my credit card company. I do not reccomend staying here at all. It is not safe or sanitary. I will NEVER stay at another baymont EVER again.

Night staff refused to help us get sheets, blankets and a pillow for our foldout bed... In the room that we specifically booked so we could have sleeping space. At first the night staffer blew us off... We were persistent in going to the front desk and finally got one sheet and one dirty blanket... The night staff was dismissive, said the lack of betting wasn't his problem, and if he would have just gotten off his video chat he could have solved the problem promptly.

Pictures are nothing like what it is inside, 2 hotels combined into one ice maker only works on one floor, absolutely no hot tub as advertised even the front desk said shes asked for it to be removed as most people pick there for that reason. Mushrooms growing on walls and ceiling just overall not as described on expedia, staff was nice thats about the best of it.

There wasn't much to like about the property. The lobby was nice, but the room was horrible. There was stuff on the walls that looked like blood, the carpet had a spot of what appeared to be ground in mud, and the faucet on the sink was loose enough to pull up. I told the fromt desk the next morning and the guy really didn't seem to care. My assumption is the rooms don't get cleaned because why wouldn't they know about the faucet in the bathroom being that loose? On the upside, the linen appeared to be clean.

The room smelled moldy. We stayed for two nights and our room wasn’t cleaned. The bathroom is old and the tub had mold stains. The three star rating is misleading. I hate that I couldn’t afford to leave. I feel cheated and robbed of my money. The ice machine also didn’t work.

Many area of the building smelled. Door handles were missing from stairwell door exits. Trash piles around the outside of the building could be seen from our room and lobby. Walls and capret had a dingy feeling to them. Would not stay there again.

Location was very easy to get to. Suitable stay. Did not go into the pool or gaming room. However the tv remote in the room was having issues and the wifi would not work. The hotel looked like it had recently been updated in the pictures but the actual hotel could use some updates. Looking forward to the free breakfast in the morning.

Check in took awhile. It looked like they were training someone, so that was understandable. Got to our room, and were appalled. Window wouldn’t close all the way, so cold air and noise was coming in. No shower curtain, and the shower was gross. Stuff all over the bathroom floor, like it wasn’t cleaned. Stains on the bed and smelled of smoke in the room. We spoke with the manager who was very nice and allowed us to cancel our room and get our money back. We appreciated that gesture a ton!

I should have looked at the reviews, this place was a nightmare. Had I known it would be this bad I would have never booked. The hotel is dirty and rundown. Took them 45 minutes to get us a room because the room they originally gave us was not cleaned. Pool is disgusting, hot tub is non functional. Breakfast is stake donut holes. Pool room has expired license and black mold. Sauna is broken. Ice machines are broken. Someone tried to open our door at 4:00 am. Just do not book here, run away!!!

We booked a room for 3 adults with no bedding for the pull out bed. The room didn't have a coffee maker but they left packets to make coffee within the room. The ice maker did not work on the 2nd floor. The bed was very comfortable and the place was quiet. Overall for the price its worth it.

Disney on ice gone bad
2/9/24 i seen this baymont/days inn hotel on the app advertising a suite for $100 a night and jumped right on it so i can take my family to Disney on Ice 2/2/24. Back home baymont is a great hotel. But in Grand Rapids it’s a totally different ball game. Smelled like cigarettes on our floor, bathroom dirty, bed sheets was dirty Nothing was ans advertised. But I can say I didn’t yell, scream or demand my money back like most would’ve in this situation. I communicated properly with the front desk and they refunded me 1 night back & my deposit.

Check in process took a long time because they did not have a room available. They ended up giving us a room on their days in side which was not what we booked. Room was filthy with a clogged bathroom sink, bed sheets soiled with food crumbs and hair, sticky residue on all surfaces and carpet was filled with fresh stains of red blood like substance that weren’t even attempted to be cleaned. We ended up switching rooms for one that was smaller and not a suite like we originally had upgraded to. That room was slightly better but cleanliness was still an issue for this property

Awful girl stay
Paint peeling on all walls. Toilet seat swivel and wasn't secured very well. Took a shower the tub was full of water it don't drain. 3 dinky pillows for a king bed. No waffle maker when we went down for breakfast when there was one in the picture. That was one of reasons we chose this hotel. So false advertising. It was very confusing with having 2 hotels in the same building we didn't know if we were at the right one or not. Outlets by the bed and lamps by the bed didn't work not did the alarm clock. Stains on the curtain that looked like blood.

The whole third floor hallway to our room reaks of mildew theres clearly water damage on the cealing and the carpet in the hallway. The pool was out of commission. Our rooms bedding had brown streak stains on it and nasty brown substance splattered all over the wall as well as the grout in the shower being black and gross, it had out light bulbs and used hair products left in the bathroom. If i were able to get a refund i would of rather slept in my car for the night then be in the nasty hotel ever again.
