My 18 year old daughter and I were traveling home from Nashville and booked a room at the Baymont Inn and suites, Grenada, MS. We arrived around 8:30 pm. The motel (definitely NOT an “inn and suites”) was up a hill and tucked behind a strip mall with vape and tatoo business and next to a Walmart. The parking lot was extremely dark and sketchy. In addition, there were several people milling around including a large man with tattooes smoking with an undershirt on. The rooms were all outside entry. Traveling as two women alone, we felt extremely unsafe. I was worried about leaving my daughter in the car to go talk to the front desk and my daughter was too frightened to get out of the car and come with me. We elected to keep driving and booked another stay in Madison, MS through Hotels.com. This resulted in us having to spend money on another hotel. I messaged Hotels.com as soon as we were safely checked into the safe hotel. The manager at the Baymont motel has refused to refund our payment and questioned how I could have felt unsafe in the parking lot of the motel. I would not recommend Baymont or this motel to my worst enemy. He said he didn’t care if I left a review, so here it is. Do not book this motel!
