Good stay, GREAT front office staff. Room could definitely use vacuuming behind furniture once in a while. Housekeeping left a dirty washcloth on the shower rod in the bathroom, kind of yukky. Stay was fine, quiet, hotel conveniently located.

Bedclothes had faint odor of cigarettes. Good breakfast. Old TV.

Second time at this hotel and although it is an older property the staff was helpful and the room good. All hotels in this area are overpriced so this one may seem steep for its condition but the hotel does compare well price wise with what you get. Rooms are dated and the bathrooms are in need of updating but the bed was comfortable and the room spacious […] (for a straight up hotel room). For a night or two this hotel is a good value for the area. Read more

Finding a hotel in Athens can be tricky sometimes when there is something going on at the university. That being said, I have stayed at most of them and feel that the Baymont is pretty good for the price you pay. The room was comfortable and clean even though the décor was outdated and worn. It had a small refrigerator and microwave, along with a workout […] room and indoor pool, as well as a convenient location. There is shopping and restaurants nearby and it is close to the college. So would I stay there again? Sure. Read more

We came down to visit our daughter at Ohio U and needed a place to crash for the night. This place seemed to be clean and conveniently located. It served our needs and we would stay there again. There were some pricier options available that exceeded our budget. There were some cheaper options, too. We drove by those and were glad we didn't stay at […] those. Those were a little creepy.

don't rely on them for a wake up call

The quality of the hotel for the price made this a steal in my opinion. It was a bit difficult to find the road leading to the hotel itself but I was able to eventually access it. Highly recommend it for others and will stay there the next time it's necessary for me.

It was okay.Fan in the bathroom was loud, tv was an old style tube tv. It was quiet so for sleeping it did the job. For the price it was fine.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel staff is always friendly when I stay here and I always leave satisfied. This time, when I went into the bathroom of my room, it looked dirty due to age/chips/stains. Sink was the same way. A little startling!

Lack of comforter was weird, but other than that it was okay

for the most part, all is as good as other hotels in area. my only thing is, we are non-smokers. we have 2 children with asthma. so being in the non-smoking area, i should not smell smoke. when you walk out the door into the hall and stairways, you get pretty potent smoke smell. and 3 doors down, one housekeeper asked another if she wanted a smoke while […] she was there. so, i feel that there needs to be a better system handling the smell of smoke. that is one thing i definitely don't experience at other place we usually stay when in athens. also, no elevator. would not be a problem if informed of that when booking a room. we came for deer hunting, so of course we brought a little bit as we stayed for 3 nights. so, finding out we had to carry hunting gear and belongings for 3 days up steps was a little challenge. just saying it should be mentioned at booking. but, i have to say, for the difference in price,i will be back. never used the breakfast so that is no issue. other than the smoking, housekeeping was attentive,room was clean and set up as well as the higher price places we usually stay at. so, yeah, we will stay again.

We were on the second floor and the smell of smoke was incredible and disgusting even though we were in a non-smoking rook. I WILL NEVER EVER STAY THERE AGAIN IF I AM ON THE 2ND FLOOR!!!!! The first floor seems to be all no smoking and the second floor is 1/2 smoking and the other half not. We were not told this at booking. Trust me the 2nd floor is […] dark, dingy and then add the smoke smell. I could not wait to check out. We put a towel on the floor to keep the smell out. Much better choices in the area to stay.

The room was old and needed remodeling. The bathtub had a huge permanent dark smear on the inside. We could not use the recliner chair due it's incredibly soiled condition. It was a dark green color but yet you could see the dark brown grime on it. Two lamp shades were torn and had what looked liked bodily fluid stains. One of the bath towels was soiled […] and we had to ask for another. The bed did not have a bed cover. The sheets looked clean, thank goodness, but we didn't get much sleep for fear of bedbugs. While we did not experience any type of infestation in the bed, it was still nerve-wracking. When I turned in the dirty bath towel, the manager never apologized or anything. He acted as if that was business as usual. I have stayed at other Baymont Hotels and have always had a good experience. However, I will never stay at that particular Baymont ever again. People should stay away from it until the present management changes hands. Read more

Great staff, clean rooms are newly redone except for tv and heater, which both worked fine but need upgraded. Great room for the price. Breakfast was good, pool and hot tub were decent. Workout room is tiny with only cardio in obscure location, but it worked fine. "Not trashy", and it was clean. Also close to restaurants and shopping areas but not too […] close. Good location next to highway, 3 minutes from OU. Read more

When there was a problem with my original room, they upgraded me with no hesitation.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel staff was very helpful and responsive. When I reported that my shower drain was slow, they had it fixed that day. The room was spacious and comfortable, thought the bed and pillows were far too firm. My only other complaint was that on the second night there was cigarette smoke smell in the hallway that also drifted into my non-smoking room. […] I reported it and the staff expressed their frustration with people who smoke in this non-smoking building, especially since the other building has smoking rooms. They hoped that the maids would figure out who was doing it so it could be stopped. It was better the next day but the odor still lingered. Overall the price was pretty reasonable for what I got, and I appreciated the convenient location near stores, the highway, and Ohio University where I was visiting my son. Read more

Cigarette burn holes in the blankets....stains on the sheets...peeling wallpaper and ceiling...smoke smell in the nonsmoking room...all signs of a property headed in the wrong direction. I'm a realist, I was only expecting the minimal amenities at a property like this, but they couldn't even deliver at a minimal level. The property is pathetic, and […] tragic and its owners should be embarrassed. Read more

We chose this hotel because it offered an indoor pool and hot tub. When we arrived, both were closed off and out of service and remained so for our entire stay. The TV had very poor reception on several stations and volume could not be adjusted suitably. The room was clean and comfortable, but the ammenities were a real disappointment. The directions […] on your web site were wrong, staff was very slow about answering the phone when we called for correct directions, and their answers were lax. We will find other accomodations should we return to Athens Oh. Read more

It's an older establishment that could use some upgrades but there aren't any major problems or defects. The staff is very plesant and supportive. The free breakfast is adequate for a quick start in the morning. Plenty of close-in parking, restaurant within a couple of yards, major eating and shopping within five minutes drive. Great value for someone […] just looking for a place to spend the night, hot shower, and TV (w/HBO) Read more

Not very up to date. The television was one of those large older ones. The air conditioning was not cold. Thank goodness it wasn't hot because it would not have been bearable. The mattress looked new (I always check thoroughly for bugs!) The sheets and blanket seemed worn and towels pretty thin. The room was clean, the front desk staff was friendly. […] A small breakfast buffet was included: coffee; juice; cereal; packaged pastries; toast; jelly, peanut butter; waffles, apples;, yogurt, oatmeal. They were out of bananas and had no soy milk. The room had everything we needed, though: microwave; fridge; hair dryer; iron & ironing board, wireless. So.. not fancy but served its purpose. We stayed there because Holiday Inn Express was full. Read more

The Baymont is conveniently located when visiting the Ohio University campus. The beds aren't very comfortable, but the room was clean and the staff was professional.

Nice to have a good comfortable room to come back to at night.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Stayed one night, met my needs. Newly paved parking lot gave a bright look to exterior. Pool looked inviting, but didn't use it. Only negative was I stayed in rear building, and a leaking gutter dripped on my head when using the north entry door and left a pool of water to walk through.

When we arrived at 3 pm for check in we were told that our room was not ready, the excuse given was that they were short handed and our room was not cleaned. So I asked that since our room was suppose to be ready at 3 and was not, could we have a curtsey upgrade. The gentleman stated at first that he didn't know what that meant, then we were told that […] they don't give curtsey upgrades and that we would just have to wait for our room. We were finally given a room key and we got into our room at 3:40. When I went to check out, return key card, and get a receipt. (A different gentleman) Asked my name and room number, he goes into the computer and gets a quizzical look on his face. I asked him if there was a problem and he said that we were not in Room 148. I responded, yes we were, see here is the key card. He takes the key card, looks at the key card, back at the computer screen, and shakes his head. I again asked him if there was a problem? To which he replied No, it will all be taken care of. I asked him what would be taken care of? He responded oh nothing for me to worry about. I asked him for a receipt and he told me that since I booked the room online I do not get a receipt from the hotel. ??? The hotel we stayed in the night before was booked online and we got a receipt.

I found dog fur in one of the blankets in my bed. It was surprising as most hotels in this chain are pretty clean!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Bathroom equipment (tub and sink) were worn out. The finish on both was warn away in several locations which resulted in the surfaces looking dirty. The hallways and room all smelled of mold.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The only 2 complaints I have are... the room smelled like it was once a smoking room. They said that it was one of the rooms that had been re-done, but it still smelled and the sheets were very clean but they need to purchase new blankets.

The hallways smelled like smoke and mildew, had to have keys rekeyed twice, the fax machine did not work, the hot tub temperature was 75 degrees. My coworker checked out and stayed at another hotel for the 2nd night.

Genuine Expedia guest review

There was a very disagreeable odor in several areas of the hotel. It really brings into question how clean they keep it. This hotel is in need of some upkeep. I was expecting a bit more. The pool was cool, I can live with that. The Hot Tub was not hot either - something amiss there.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Clean and convenient. We always stay here for OU events.

This was the worst hotel i have stayed at in 20 years! the carpet had huge stain, mold and stains on walls in bathroom, arms on the extra chair were filthy, and the curtains over the airconditioning unit smell horrible, maybe smoke,(we are not smokers and this was a non smoking room). The hallway to our room had a horrible smell to it, unidentified?? […] I really am from a small town and i am really not a picky person, but for the price we paid i thought the hotel would be clean! Also have never had a cleaning lady refuse to make our beds because my daughter left a small bag on the bed! Then she left us notes all over the room on why she couldnt clean something! she didnt vaccum, there was still hair in the shower! All she did was change out the towels! Then i called and ask for extra blankets/ pillows cause we had a roll away(spring missing and horrible matress, springs sticking out!) and they made me come to the front desk if i wanted them, instead of bringing them to us! Will never stay there again! I will drive to Marietta if i have to! Horrible Horrible experience! Read more

Found a bug between the covers and sheets. Was told it wasn't a bed bug but regardless...a bug in the bed. Was given a different room. Bed looked ok. While sitting in the dirty upholstered chair reading, yet another bug crawled down the arm of the chair. The hallways smelled horrible. Couldn't wait to get out of there!

Genuine Expedia guest review

When I called the hotel to confirm a roll away, I was told preference is given to guests that book through them, no rollaway. We paid for 4 adults, where given 3 towels. Room was small and we were staying for 5 days, by day 5 we had to ask for extra towels and TP. Internet went down for the last three days, did not seem to concern staff. For the most […] part, front desk was helpful, but housekeeping made getting towels and TP from the front desk a necessity. Fine for one or two nights, not an extended stay, pay a bit more and go elsewhere. Read more

We only had wifi for 1 day out of the 3 we stayed there. The indoor heated pool was not heated at all. The television was old and had static. The screen in the window in our room looking outside was broken. We got a smoking room and the whole hallway stunk. Our room smelled so bad we went and bought an air freshener just to be able to be in the room. […] Overall it was not a pleasant time at all. Read more

NERVOUS AT ENTRANCE BECAUSE OF SMOKE SMELL. ONCE IN OUR ROOM, NO MORE CONCERNS. STAY WAS VERY NICE!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The service was fast and friendly. My room was comfortable and clean. The location was nice. That said, it was dated and a little worn at the edges. There is not a card entry to the fitness room which requires you to check out a key making it inconvenient. The breakfast choices were carb and fat based with peanut butter being the primary protein option. […] I would stay there again. Read more

I was pleased with my recent stay at the Baymont Inn. The room was clean and smoke free. It is close to the university which was nice because the reason I came in town was to register my son for school. I would recommend this hotel to any one else who is visiting Athens. I would stay here again.

The hotel is in a good location, and is a perfectly decent hotel. The access to the Hocking - Adena Bikeway is directly behind the hotel, which was very convenient for me.
