Not great but not terrible
It was very outdated, apeared to be clean until I found a bug in the bathroom and another one on the desk. The surrounding area was what I would call, seedy (did not feel safe). But we needed a cheaper place to stay last minute so we made due.

Worst hotel I have ever stayed at! Former LaQuinta now Baymont. Transient and drug dealers all around. Car was broken into. Owner and staff barely speak English and had no answers to anything. Didn’t have breakfast, WiFi didn’t work. Stairs and sidewalks have so much gunk and gum on them can’t walk. Embarrassing for the Wyndham chain. Should be closed down.

Would Not Recommend
Booked thinking this was a La Quinta but surprised to find out it's a different name. Looks like it was a La Quinta but that name had too many bad reviews so they changed it. The location is close to downtown but right off the highway and they didn't spend any money on sound proofing. Also it's a pretty questionable area, lots of arguing late at night and hookers walking around. There isn't any real breakfast, just two kinds of cereal, OJ, and watered down coffee. The room was fairly clean but looked like it was remodeled by someone who didn't know what they were doing, for starting to peel up and not well managed. When we first got to the room we noticed that there was no microwave or mini fridge and no remote. We asked for one and never got it after four days. I would highly recommend you find a different hotel. It's sad to see these little hotels get run into the ground, as I grew up staying at them.

Terrible experience :(
Our refrigerator did not work! Shower had rusty water come out of it! There was no room cleaning. We did not have enough towels in the room. There was a couple fighting in from of the hotel doors. And in front of our room there were homeless people....Needless to say our stay was worrisome and frightening!!!!

Buyer Beware!
I wouldn't recommend this hotel unless you were stuck for a place to stay. I booked it because rooms in the city were expensive because of F1, College Football and music festival happening, and Baymont was still affordable. I ended up moving rooms 3 times to get into one that was acceptable. In each room something was broken or didn't work. The third room was the only one that had a bar fridge and microwave. There's no in-room coffee maker; the menu on the tv's don't work, so you have to scan through all the channels to try to find something worth watching. It's close to major highway overpasses, so is noisy - not great if you're a light sleeper. The breakfast arrangement is weird - the lobby has basic bread, toasters, juice and weak coffee. If you toast bread, there are no knives to spread butter, etc. Front desk just grunted when I mentioned this twice and they did nothing about it. They advertise a pool, but it always had a 'closed sign' on the entry gate. If you want a hot breakfast, you have to walk to the other end of the hotel and upstairs, where a woman makes you a waffle and scrambled eggs and passes it through a window - but there's no cutlery to go with it. You have to walk back to the lobby where there's no knives - ever! There were seedy characters hanging around...overall it was a pretty bad hotel experience. The only positives were that the housekeepers were nice and the rooms had laminate floors, so they looked reasonably clean. The bed was also comfortable.

Unsafe, and extremely rundown
Felt unsafe and very run-down. The door looked like it had been kicked and does not shut properly. The curtain was disgustingly dirty (by the AC). There were bugs (that looks like gnat) in the bathroom. At night, it was noisy and sounded like either people fighting outside our door. It also sounded like somebody tried to open the next door room. Outside when we checked out, somebody were smoking weed. If it wasn’t just for the night since, I would have left. If you’re traveling with family; RUN!!! Felt soooo unsafe.
