What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Baymont Inn Suites's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Baymont Inn Suites has the right to inspect a facility during or after construction or renovation. This inspection is to ensure the facility complies with the System Standards and to potentially approve its opening as a Baymont Inn Suites location. This is a standard practice in franchising, allowing the franchisor to maintain consistency and quality across all locations.

For a prospective franchisee, this means that Baymont Inn Suites will monitor the construction or renovation process to ensure adherence to their standards. This includes reviewing architectural plans and specifications, and they may charge a fee for reviewing material modifications to these plans. Franchisees should be prepared for these inspections and be ready to address any issues identified by Baymont Inn Suites to gain approval for opening the facility.

Baymont Inn Suites also provides access to prototype drawings and specifications for new construction to guide the architect. Furthermore, the franchisee will receive a copy of the Manual containing System Standards and specifications, including those for furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Franchisees must also use approved suppliers for required products and services. If a franchisee wants to deviate from standard interior design packages, Baymont Inn Suites will review and approve the custom design package for an additional fee.
