Baymont by Wyndham Piqua

I was a little worried when I walked in because the lobby might need to be refurbished, but the rooms were nice and clean and well appointed. The front desk staff was very nice and efficient. I asked for $20 or $30 off since I was checking out 19 hours early and her manager wouldn’t let that happen, so that was my only disappointment, but I understand because it was during a strange time of the year during the solar eclipse and I had booked it. The hotel is located right next to a train so you’ll hear a train coming through, but it is not a whistle stop. It didn’t bother me, but the kids noticed it. Speaking of location, hotel’s finest feature is that it’s located in walking distance to Hollow Park, which is a delightful park with a creek and lovely walking path and running paths. As you walk/drive in, there is a covered picnic area, at least one grill, and a playground. If you go up the very high path, you get to a high grass clearing and then you can take one of two paths. Path to right circles back to the playground. The path to left goes through beautiful wooded areas, fork to the leads to steps and parking lot at its end. All off a major highway. Hotel also located near downtown Piqua which has some beautifully restored buildings.

Was very happy that coffee & hot chocolate were available all night. Checked in after 10pm & it was a cold night. Needed to boost the temp of water, using the microwave and the room's cardboard cup, but loved the treat of late night cocoa. Altho' not able to indulge, the heated pool was open til midnight. Room was clean & comfortable - no "ick" factors. Hard floors, not overused carpeting. Floor lamp that gave soft, low light that worked well as a night light.

Great value for the price. The bed was extremely comfortable. The room was very clean. The facility appears to have been recently renovated. The flooring was very nice. The breakfast was what I expected and adequate for the price of the room. Really convenient to access the bike trail.

Most of the staff was exceptional. There were 2 times where employees were less than cooperative. One threw away a good travel cup which we were able to retrieve from the trash. This was 5 minutes after checking in. The second, we ask we asked for a second chair for our room and we never heard back.

It looked like updates were being made, just not completed. Room was clean, the bagged breakfast was better than no breakfast.
