Property needs updating. Old and worn out carpet in my room. Ice machine didn't work. Had to hold down toilet for awhile before it would flush . Towels weren't soft at all but it was clean and the front desk staff was very pleasant and let me have a late check out which I appreciated

No frills but clean

It was a good place to stay for one night. It was clean which is most important to me. The building and rooms need some TLC and updating. However, it was clean. I think that before the travel season the pool and ice machine should be in working order. They did provide ice when asked. The breakfast was shut down and only Continental was available, not what was advertised or even in others comments. Maybe because it was a weekday. It was good to sleep and shower.

One & Done Visit

It was okay, nothing special. It wasn't as good like other Country Inn hotels that we've stayed in. The man at the front desk wasn't the nicest to my husband when he asked him some questions and he was difficult to understand with his accent. The breakfast wasn't very complete with hot foods. The condition of the lobby area and hallways looked rather shabby, in need of updating.The pool, hot tub, and ice machine were all down which made us wonder if they just didn't want the hassle of many people using them, especially over a busy holiday week. If we come back to Grand Rapids again for a visit, we'll probably try some place else.

Worst experience at a Country Inn & Suites

Country Inn & Suites has always been a pretty good bet when traveling. Buildings are usually updated and has pretty good amenities. Staff is always been friendly and courteous and can get you what you need. That is not what you're going to get at this property. First off we booked the property and it was listed with the pool and hot tub. This is one of the reasons why we picked the property. Drove 3 hours to get there and the pool and hot tub or clothes for maintenance. That's fine, except they're not even working on it it's half full and they just don't want to have it open. Their answer is you could go to the hotel across the street. We have been traveling for hours and we're just done so we decide to stay. Get to our room unpack our stuff, go down to get ice and no ice in the entire Hotel. Not to mention that the lobby is kind of filthy trash cans are overflowing. Whole Lobby smells very bad like some kind of weird Indian food with cabbage. Come to the next morning to go for the free breakfast. And you get sour orange juice and outdated rolls. Someone really needs to take better care of this property.

The bed was lumpy, pillows were flat and terrible. The pool, hot tub, and ice machine was out of service. The phone in my room did work so I had to call the front desk from my phone when the smoke detector in my room was chirping at 4:00am! It was not a good experience.

Pool, hot tub and ice machienes were all broken, no extra pillows available. The bath tub surround was covered in mold, the shower head was hanging out of the wall by a giant hole in the sheet rock and the shower head leaked so bad it was shooting water at the sheet rock. Building was in very poor condition.

Never again!

Walked into hotel and saw a sign that said “pool, hot tub and ice machine down until further notice” that was our main reason for staying there! Then we wanted to sit outside the old owners had a beautiful propane firepit. The lady at the desk sadly didn’t speak very fluent English she didn’t understand firepit. Check into our room after being told that “Expedia frauded us” and our reservations were not valid! I’ve been using Hotels.com for years and have had good luck. So we paid privately. Walk into a room and after over 90 minutes of staff and my partner trying to turn on tv…the worker was on his phone most of this time…we were given a new room. The bathtub was filthy so we chose not to shower. The Perks was that they attempted to accommodate the television part and are pet friendly but I know we won’t be staying there again! This used to be our go-to in Grand Rapids, MN. The property is poorly taken care of, lawn unkempt, parking lot needs work. Sad to see such a formerly nice hotel go to crap like this one did.

The room was great. Our only issue was that we couldn't figure out how to get the TV channels. We gave up and just went to sleep. A little disappointed the pool was out of order.

The property was fine but Expedia was the issue. I pre paid for this stay and when I arrived to check in the hotel couldn’t process it because Expedia did not send them the funds. I was on the phone with Expedia for an hour and they didn’t understand the issue at all. They ended up having to cancel my stay and I had to pay an extra $60 to stay the night. They have still not refunded me and told me the best they could do is $25 in rewards for Expedia.

Ok for price

Kids were very disappointed that the pool was closed for maintenance over Memorial Day weekend. That was one of the main reasons for picking the hotel. The hotel is definitely older and in need of some repairs, but it was decent for the price. Front desk staff was not professional at all but got the job done I guess.

Very uncomfortable beds, I needed to see a chiropractor after my visit. Unfinished construction and repairs throughout the building. Hot tub was out of order, which was one of the main reasons i had chosen this hotel in the first place. Staff was friendly, but unfortunately have to deal with crabby customers due to their terrible experiences. Will NOT stay here again.
