MainStay Suites
There was a kitchen…but we were not impressed and it felt very unsafe. But overall it was just dirty! We will NEVER consider this property ever again! It feels like there was drugs and prostitution on the premises from the time we walked in!

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott® Grand Rapids Airport
I reserved two rooms and was charged for both before we checked in. When we arrived at the hotel, one reservation had been canceled for some reason. Took about a half hour to correct the cancellation. Not sure why this happened.

Amway Grand Plaza, Curio Collection by Hilton
We stayed in the Arizona sweet. Doors to our bedroom were locked. We were unable to get a rollaway. They brought wet sheets and blankets. The amenities were subpar in the room. The pool and space was disgusting with hair floating all in pool and around the pool deck.

Holiday Inn Grand Rapids Downtown by IHG
My stay at Holiday Inn downtown Grand Rapids was great and very comfortable. They offered a breakfast buffet for $16.99, but we did not check it out. This hotel was clean, the staff was great, and they offered a free shuttle bus to downtown events. I recommend this hotel and I will stay here ...
