What Guests Are Saying
“I was so happy to stay here enroute to Columbus… I was driving from the Detroit area; I did not want to drive 3 1/2 hours one morning to meet my sister at Easton. Tina and Beth at the front desk were just so wonderful… Loved the Meijer convenience right behind this charming freeway-side hotel. I’m so glad I stayed here… The bed was so incredibly comfortable… everyone working was so pleasant, and I was able to book with Tina right over the phone. They even called me the next day when I left a pair of reading glasses in the room, which I ultimately didn’t need, but that was so thoughtful! I highly recommend the Marion Baymont Wyndham!” — AandJTravelers1, 5 stars
“Extraordinary service and friendliness from the wonderful front desk clerk Tina. The room was clean and comfortable. The hotel was rather noisy due to the boisterous young clientele, but I felt safe and appreciated the security cameras in the halls and the attentive service. Breakfast selection was good. Didn’t have a chance to use the fitness center and pool. Meijer within a minute’s walk was very convenient. I will come back any time I’m traveling through the area again!” — flyermontana, 5 stars
“We were travelling with a pet, so could not stay at the hotel we normally used while in this area. This was a pleasant surprise. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. All staff was pleasant and helpful. We will use this motel again when we are in the area.” — chsrms2023, 5 stars
