Good Place To Stay
A clean room, conveniently located, at a very reasonable price. Easy check in and out. Friendly service. Considering the proximity to the freeway, noise was not an issue at all.

The people that run the Bay City Inn are extremely friendly with everyone. It was renovated recently and looks so much better. I clean and do my own maintenance in the room. I wish more guests were clean and didn't expect the staff to clean up their horrible mess and treat them like servants to call on them at all hours of the night.

The check in man was great. I talked to him yesterday about being disabled. He saved a great room for me, the nearest room to an entrance of the hotel.

The two times I needed to go to the front desk in the evening, agent was outside the front door smoking. I appreciated the toothpaste, having forgot our own. 3 small tables in foyer for "breakfast area" that had expired yogurt and stale bread.

Stay was good but the breakfast area was really small. Luckily there wasn’t a bunch of people staying at that time or it would have been virtually undoable. These hotels should understand that if you provide a good breakfast in a comfortable environment people will be way more contented and will come back.

This place was wonderfully clean, and well maintained for being an older motel. The front desk service was always friendly and helpful.
