Very convenient when flying GRR. Shuttle personnel were delightful! But when I called to reserve a shuttle, I wish I had been informed of detour and road construction around hotel. Arrived I. The evening and bit was pretty confusing for a first time guest.

There was a lot of bugs inside my window and the bathroom smelled like sewage. I switched rooms and found the floor was dirty and the doors needed to wiped down. I Cleaned the doors and floors myself with my own disinfectant.
