The staff were friendly, room was clean, and accommodations were about what you'd expect for a budget hotel just off the interstate. I did end up checking out a night early, cut my loss, and rented an airbnb due to the level of noise in the hotel. The walls are very thin and there is about a one inch gap between the floor and the bottom of the door. Not only does this allow for the florescent light from the hall to beam into the room (remedied with a towel), but it made me feel a bit uneasy being there alone. On my second night there was a man and woman in one of the hallway areas loudly arguing for over an hour, starting around 10:30. The room above me got up and stomped around for about an hour every night around 3 am. Lesson learned to spend the extra $ nightly for something that makes me feel a little more comfortable, safe, and to sleep less interrupted.

As many other reviewers stated, the hotel is older and dated but refurbished and clean. The mattress was quite firm. I was pleasantly surprised that the room was quiet despite being in close proximity to I-5, and the heating system was quiet as well. We did not notice any train horn noise that is common in many area hotels. Bring a clothes pin or clip to hold the drapes together. The vent fan in the (tiny) bathroom was efficient. There was an elevator serving multiple floors. Breakfast was minimalistic with 2 kinds of cold cereal, 2 choices of fruit, waffles/syrup, bagels/bread/sweet rolls, yogurt, juice, coffee, tea, and common toppings for instant oatmeal and bread. Nothing fancy and a true continental breakfast. Parking was easy/accessible with larger parking spaces and the lot was fairly well lighted. There were no obvious signs of “urban decay” and I felt safe arriving and departing in the dark. I was satisfied with the value for the price and short time we spent at Bay City Inn.

There was dirty underwear on the back of the bathroom door. We don’t want to be rude but feel we needed to mention it. In person, I was feeling too uncomfortable to ask for a refund but feel like I should have.
