Bay Motel by OYO Bay City

I prefer the "old fashioned" motor inns, being able to park at the door of the office to check in, and park at the door of my room. The outside of this property looked pretty good. In fact the bed was comfortable and the check-in staff was friendly. However....The office space was a wall of cigarette smoke. The room itself was jaw dropping. Of course the decor was mishmash, but that's ok as it is, after all, a budget hotel. But there was so much wrong I'll highlight just a few things and let the photos do some of the talking. The a/c unit was easily 20 years old, and very loud. The bathroom had been "remodeled" to fit in a bath tub by cutting the opening for the original shower by half it's size. Never seen anything like it. Ev-er. And there were little things: the shelf below the mirror in the bathroom was so slanted that everything slid off of it. There was a large cobweb waving away in a corner. The refrigerator was plugged into a wall outlet just about a foot from the a/c, and the outlet also supported an extension cord so that one of the wall sconces near the bed would have power. There's more but, honestly, this place needs to be completely renovated, probably down to the studs.
