I arrived around 1:45 am 10/10 & 10/13. I was very tired from driving 6 hours. The gentelman that assisted me with checking in was patient and kind. I'm not even sure if I thanked him, I was so tired. Thank you!
Top notch friendly and experienced staff. Allan is one of the best in the industry of lodging makes all guest feel like they are home.
Yah stay here. Good hotel. Quiet rooms, blackout shade on a track, nice shower (albeit the track seemed a little dirty in 234) very clean room, good breakfast, friendly staff, wide parking spots and 10/10 for us. King room had plenty of space for a queen air mattress (if you have a baby who can’t sleep high up). Easy distance to gas, Meijer and Culver’s. They have real coffee downstairs (not pods or weird k-cups).
Had a great time! Room was clean, spacious, and modern. Staff was friendly and efficient. Breakfast was good, warm and plentiful. Highly recommend.
The room, service & location was great. The room is hugh, service was good, location was great. A lot of restaurants to choose from.
We had a great stay here! Well-cleaned room, stocked breakfast area, and friendly staff. It's in a pretty good location near lots of stores and restaurants. Noise level was low.
We stayed Friday night, January 3. We had a very clean room that was a large King room with all desired options and supplies available - except the pool that was in renovation. The one point that was outstanding was the front desk employee by the name of Jamie. She was VERY helpful when we decided to cancel Saturday night, January 4, due to a predicted snow storm. She also made our reservations in November when we called the hotel direct - again VERY helpful, courteous, and kind. This won't be our last visit to this hotel. Thank You
