Worked out OK but not luxury

This may have been a Hotels.com problem, but when I arrived I was told there were no rooms. The clerk was not super compassionate, but at least put me in what was maybe a room under repair. The door would not shut properly and there was no mini refrigerator, which I was really planning on. Room was comfortable enough. But my experience this time was a 2- or 3- Star at best.

Pulled in to begin our stay while 6 police officers drug some sobbing lady out of there. The property was probably awesome, along time ago. They havent updated much! The room didnt have a fridge, micro or coffee maker and was not nice! The swimming pool/spa area was in shambles and the stuff floating in pool, gross! The hotel gave us stained pool towels after they were able to track some down. The Bay Valley Resort needs so serious updating, now!

The outside looks very nice- However the inside needs a major overhaul. Half the rooms were not available to use. The banquet hall hadn’t been cleaned in I don’t know when. It was dark and creepy walking to the bathrooms from the pool area. There were only 5 chairs to sit in for the pool. We stayed for dinner it took over 2 hours for them to make dinner and have it served to the group. Some things were even forgotten and had to be made in a hurry. The lighting was also very dark in the hall. They did have live music and that was good. The rooms are very outdated- no microwave, refrigerator or even the basic coffee pot. This is a Wyndham Property and I would expect better quality.

Improvements pending!!

The handicap entrance to get in with your suitcases instead of hauling them up all the stairs, had no door so anyone could come in. Not safe! We only had 1 washcloth and hand towel. Sent a message no response. Called no one answered. No phone, refrigerator, microwave or coffee pot in room. Carpet was so dirty our feet were black. We were told there was breakfast for a fee. Found out breakfast is only served on Sunday. Food in lounge was delicious. Hopefully there new remodeling will help these issues.

The facility was clean and staff was friendly and helpful. Undergoing a remodeling with limited rooms. Could really use a microwave and fridge in the rooms. Also needs to have more counter space in bathrooms for women to do their morning routine. Also could use a mirror in room besides the bathroom. The pillows were very poor. And the continental breakfast was very minimal.

Awful

We arrived to a dirty room.. tv didn’t work. They took almost 3 hours (by the time we got a new room it was midnight) because they had no other clean and ready rooms available. Pool floor was cracking and falling apart my son cut his foot on it in the indoor pool. We asked for pool towels but due to renovations they are not offering pool towels and you have to use towels from your room which I asked for and he said he would send some to my room as me and my kids sat at the front desk dripping wet. Staff was rude, the young girl at the front desk was the only one who was nice. We ended our trip early after our encounter with the man at the desk about the towels. We didn’t even stay our 2nd night we just ended the trip. I understand they are renovating but things were thrown all over the place and the only work we seen going on was them painting outside the pool area. We won’t be returning.

Older hotel, getting a future remodel. Been here before, would have give a 3 star but they had 2 towels per room so that was terrible for a family of 4. Bar and restaurant are a plus. Can’t wait to see the remodel.

The property is falling apart. Many areas unsafe and huge liability for bay valley! We had one towel with three people. We ran out of toilet paper and went to get some and they told us they had none! We had Kleenex! It stunk in room … weeds growing up our sliding glass doors that do not open unless you jiggle it endlessly and doesn’t lock! We had to pay 25 dollars more to stay 45 minutes later then they were pounding our door down!!! Then treated very rude! Don’t stay here!
