The Location is Very Convenient
Traveler Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Econo Lodge Bayview MotelEconolodge Bayview #15308 stayed September 2018. Angelina from Twin LakeThe location is very convenient. Staff at front desk was average. The room was nice, but surprised to see various parts of the room with damage that was not taken care of, including wallpaper peeling up in bathroom behind the toilet by the shower. The shower surround was broken and the metal towel bar was bent with exposed rough edges. -

Econo Lodge Bayview MotelEconolodge Bayview #14944 stayed July 2018. Linda from HowellThe room was clean and service was kind. Area was fairly quiet. Breakfast across the street was very, very congested. So much so that we did not attend on our second day. That was a bit disappointing. Overall it was a good stay and I would recommend the hotel to others. Thank you -
We Staid in the Room Attached to the Office
Traveler Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Econo Lodge Bayview MotelEconolodge Bayview #14875 stayed July 2018. Kim from FreeportWe staid in the room attached to the office, the room was fine. They have continental breakfast but you have to go to the hotel next door to the 3rd floor to eat. We didnt eat there it was a mess. The indoor water park is also in the hotel next door. This is definitely for little kids, but looked fun. The inside pool and hot tub are in the same place as the water park and are very nice. Our hotel also had an outdoor pool but we did not use it. -

Cabin Was Nice but the 2nd Bedroom Was a Little to Small for the Bed That Was in It Couldn't Open the Door All the Way
Traveler Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Econo Lodge Bayview MotelEconolodge Bayview #14447 stayed May 2018. Joseph from RosevilleCabin was nice but the 2nd bedroom was a little to small for the bed that was in it couldn't open the door all the way. Pictures online are different then the layout made me think I was getting a different cabin. Staff was great and very helpful. Air unit only cooled the front living room and not the bedrooms making it very warm in the bedrooms. -
