Disgusting

The hotel is surrounded by nicer places and priced close to the same. We’d been camping and decided to sleep in a real bed for the night, and this one was on our way out of town. No refunds. The whole room smelled like cigarettes, to the point my hair did when we left. Used condoms on the floor. Crumbs from someone’s meal in the bed. We stayed less than 4 hours and slept fully dressed with shoes on in our sleeping bags. I am NOT happy about any of it but they refused to do anything, acting like they couldn’t understand when I tried to ask for a different room.

Very dirty the hotel room hadn't been cleaned and sanitized before our stay. Food crumbs, stains on walls, a cut screen as if someone had tried breaking in. Very loud, noisy, the room smelled. The room was dirty I had never stayed in such a dirty unsafe hotel in my life.

Worst Place on the Planet.

This was by far the worst place I have ever stayed. It smelled so my ch like smoke we could hardly sleep. The bedding and mattresses were filthy. The pool was closed and a good thing it was because it was discussing. The floors looked like they hadn’t been cleaned in months. The deadbolt didn’t work. There were people screaming and shouting airside our door at 3am and I didn’t feel safe enough to ask them to stop. We checked for evidence of bed bugs, but we couldn’t be sure so all of our clothes that touched the beds we put in plastic bags and are heating or freezing them just in case. I can wish we would have taken pictures DO NOT STAY HERE!!!

I thought the price should have been less expensive for the condition. The pool looked as if it had not been in service for a long time, although online it did not state it was unavailable. Online stated a microwave was available upon request, but was not. I plugged in a cord behind the bed in a receptacle and it was very dusty and there was an old cookie? there. The bathroom door didn't close. The curtains smelled horrible so we left the windows open as long as we could. There was lots of trash scattered around the lawn. The 2 staff members we encountered were very friendly.

The price we paid for the rooms was not worth what we got. There were dirt specks between the comforter and sheets in one room. The other room had a stale smoke smell and it was obvious that the paint had been touched up with a color that didn't match. The rooms were in need of remodeling. The rooms were the poorest quality of any on our trip.

We wound up not even staying here. First of all the pool was not open and has not been open for quite a while. Broken glass & trash all over parking lot. Very unsafe neighborhood! Dirty & outdated! Would not have slept a wink if we would have stayed there! Maybe $20 a night but surely not $125 a night!!!

This motel was a nightmare for my family and I. We didn't make a reservation in Muskegon or Grand Rapids early enough and got stuck here. The motel was run down, spiders crawling everywhere outside the building. It was not well maintained. We went to our room, but could not enter because it reeked of smoke and I am not sure what the other smell was. My son has severe asthma and could not handle being in the room. We asked for a different room, but they didn't have one. We said we couldn't stay there, but they said there were no refunds. It really was terrible here.

It is what it is. Last-minute booking near Grand Haven State Park & Beach. Bad: Dirty & out-of-order Pool. One key (actual key) for room. Door needed hard push/pull to open/close. Room smelled moldy. Stained bed. Bad lighting. Body wash in dispensary and outside by sink instead of in shower. Bathroom door didn’t close. Okay: free parking, closet w/hangers, fridge, free ice maker outside, table & desk. Good water pressure. Easy check in/out. Housekeeper was friendly. Next to main road to Grand Haven.
