I liked that a mijer was within walking distance. I forgot shorts and had to get a pair. The staff was friendly, helpful, and accommodating. The pool was nice to relax after a long drive. It seemed to be well maintained, and the chlorine smell was hardly noticeable. Family and I had plenty of room for sleeping. All 5 of us. Breakfast in the morning was pretty good. The kids liked making their own waffles. They had a pretty good range of food and drink. Also, the coffee in the lobby was pretty tasty. I like mine black and it was dang near perfect. I knocked off 1 star because one of the beds had a stained sheet. We just tossed that one on the floor for the night. I'm not a big fan of the shampoo being in a bottle mounted on the wall people can have access to. Don t know if someone put something in it. Other than that, it was nice.

We had a really nice stay. The check in person was awesome and breakfast was great. Was only 8 minutes from Michigan Lottery Ampitheatre. 10/10

Not too bad for a 3 star hotel. Room is clean, plenty of towels. Bathroom could have been cleaned better, found hair on the walls. But the rest was real clean. What was a bit inconvenient, is the absence of plugs on the night stand. There was one on the lamp in the corner, and a couple wall ones. But we made it work. Very pleasant and polite staff, no complaints. Great breakfast! Waffles, omelet, fresh fruit, yogurt, coffee station. Overall it was a great stay.

Our stay would have been perfect except there was construction happening on the floor above us and Sooooo loud during the day that it shook everything on our walls and had to crank the TV volume so incredibly high. Frustrating when you have been traveling and just want to rest. I complained at the front desk and was told they would be quitting for the day at 4pm they did indeed but began at 8am the next morning. Ugh!! I swear I thought they were right there in our room. I asked to be moved to floor #1. But they were full so that was not happening. We were just there for an overnight stay but we were exhausted and just wanted rest. The breakfast buffet was good and plentiful, front desk staff was friendly and overall this is probably a good place to stay but NOT when they are renovating

The staff here was awesome. Very friendly, helpful, and honestly super fun people. Rooms were clean and spacious. The pillows weren’t the greatest and I wish they had bigger showers, but overall, a great experience.
