Baymont by Wyndham South Haven

Baymont by Wyndham South Haven

10/10 Excellent
"This was a really nice hotel. No, its not the Ritz Carlton, but the hotel was clean, pretty quiet, the staff were super friendly and helpful, and in a great location just outside of town and super close to lots of good restaurants. The price was very reasonable and the breakfast was hot and fresh. Especially nice because it was no extra cost. I would highly recommend them."
