What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Baymont Inn Suites's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the high end of the renovation cost range assumes that the facility requires extensive structural renovations to meet the Baymont Inn Suites System Standards. This includes the assumption that the exterior, public areas, and guest rooms are in poor condition and require refinishing. Examples of areas needing work include exterior walkways, the swimming pool surface, landscaping, and ceiling tiles. This contrasts with the low end of the range, which assumes the facility's exterior, public areas, guest rooms, and systems are already in good condition and meet System Standards. Therefore, franchisees should be prepared for potentially significant renovation expenses if the existing facility is not up to par with Baymont Inn Suites's requirements.
