This hotel is amazing! The GM of the hotel checked us in The process was quick and efficient, and he was super friendly and accommodating to our requestsThe Hotel staff were friendly and always greeted with a smile and a “hello”

Breakfast was good, including sausage, eggs, waffles, and I had no complaints from the kids! There was one gentleman particularly who was very helpful in the breakfast room, and had a conversation with my sonvery pleasant! He even helped him get syrup for his waffles!The room was clean and included a note from the housekeeper welcoming us Our beds were comfortable, and the room was spacious with a nice TV Access to the highway was very easy, and there were many options for dining nearbyAlthough we left our fur family at home, it is also nice to know we could have brought them with us as the hotel is pet friendly We will do so next time!Overall, if I could give this hotel a rating it would be a 10+ No complaints at all, just a relaxing few days away from home with my family with awesome accommodations! Highly recommended! We will be back!

Can’t say enough nice things about this place! We were running late and I called to be sure they wouldn’t think we were a no show on our reservation The gentleman who answered (I believe his name was Tim) made note of it, wished us safe travels and said he’d see us soon We arrived close to 1:00 a

m without stopping for dinner They had microwave meals and sodas available at the front desk, which were just what we needed at that moment Tim made sure we had utensils and napkins, asked if we actually had a pet in our pet friendly room and told us where the best spot to take our dog out was Our room was clean, pretty, quiet and comfy, with down pillows on the bed and great water pressure in the shower Our only regret was having to leave at 6:00 am (the one time in my life I was checked in and out by the same person) He wished us safe travels and made sure we had hot coffee…we were too early for breakfast We will definitely stay again and highly recommend

Great customer service, great looking room and very clean Only thing is the curtains don’t shut completely for privacy at our window and the heat took long to warm the room up The window not being able to close with the curtain made the room even harder to warm up because of the cold air outside coming in, which the bed was located right next to the window

Other than those things it was clean, quiet, respectful staff and very friendly and everything we needed was all already in the room Although, hot breakfast would’ve been great

Stacy Purcaro

This was our second time staying here, and both times were fantastic The front desk employees are incredibly friendly, rooms are spacious and clean, and the pool area is fantastic (hot tub, plus a heated pool that can be accessed from both indoors and outdoors – the kids loved it) In addition to the very reasonably priced rooms, you get a full breakfast buffet, coffee 24/7, soft drinks in the evenings, and a happy hour with three FREE drinks and food every night

Super accessible to the airport and only 15 minutes from downtown Grand Rapids Highly recommend

Krystal Pryor

Great place to stay Loved the amenities and the fact that they serve breakfast and dinner; saved us a lot of money on foodThe only thing I didn’t like was the smell of the pool

To me it didn’t smell like chlorine and was really potent; almost made me gag The pool itself was clean though

Jonathon Vince

First time here and it was great Couldn’t keep driving and needed to stop Rolled in at 1AM

Guy at front desk got me a room and I was out Place is huge 6 floors Rooms are very nice and have all the normal stuff Breakfast is where it’s at Full hot breakfast Sausage, eggs, waffles, toast, cereal, danishes, ect included It is a little pricier than other places around but well worth it with the cleanliness and great food in the morning If I need to stop around here again it will most definitely be here ✌

Jacqueline Deveraux

We really enjoyed our stay here Great location Walkable to a lot of interesting sites: The staff was really nice

Karen, at the front desk, was so kind and spoiled us Because of our flight times, she even let us check in a little early and check out a bit later We offered to pay more but she said it was fine It pays to be nice She was so accommodating We loved visiting Grand Rapids and would like a repeat visit here

Harry Kourlos

Just wanted to give a shout-out to Amanda at the front desk Very nice and delightful that there are really good-hearted people like her She is very understanding and cares about her guests

I think if more professionals adapted her attitude and work ethic, the business revenue would go up at least 33% It is very important to treat the guest right and to go above and beyond expectations, and she truly did The customer service is A-1 and you will not regret your stay

Sven Tietz

Delivers exactly what you expect of a Courtyard brand: neat, clean, efficient, friendly, well priced Rooms were clean and generous enoughHad no issues with noise, parking or difficulty getting there like other reviewers – was easy and straightforward

Not a 5 star hotel by any means but deserves a 5 star rating for delivering what it promises on the tin

This hotel is one of the best I have been to in a long time I have traveled to a lot of different places and stayed in my share of hotels, but this one tops them all! The night clerk is very friendly and an all around good guy A bit pricey but you get what you pay for

The room was clean and decent sized, would be perfect for someone on a business trip or someone from out of town visiting lake Michigan Definitely recommend this place if you need a hotel for the weekend or longer

Thomas Dafinger

Recently I stayed at this Hyatt Place for two consecutive nights Upon arrival the check-in took some time, as the receptionist had some issue with the guest right in front of me Finally in the room I noticed soon, that in the bathroom not everything was working properly

After flushing the toilet it made strange noises And the rack with towels on it was hanging loose But for two nights this was ok for me more or less One thing I didn’t like at all was, that housekeeping did not respect the do-not-disturb-sign outside the room! After the first night they knocked and immediately opened the door! After the second they knocked again, but at least waited for me to open the door Why do the have these signs, when everybody disregards them? Breakfast was ok so far Nevertheless this Hyatt property is below Hyatt standard only in my opinion At the moment I don’t know if I would return

BEWARE! This hotel will steal from you! I stayed here at the beginning of January and when I checked my credit card statement a few weeks later, there was an additional $750 charged to my card When I contacted the hotel, they claimed that I broke the television in the room and they billed me for property damage For the record, I did not break anything in that room! I am a business traveler who has stayed in this hotel before

What’s more is that they didn’t even call or email me to discuss the situation They simply charged my card, stole $750 from me, and then told me to take a hike when I complained about it I am currently disputing the charge with my credit card company, and if need be, will be taking this to smalls claims courtI travel for work all the time and I have never encountered a situation like this before They have lost my business, they have lost the business of any of my employees who travel there for work, they have lost the business of all of my friends and family, and the local company that I am working with that recommended I stay here is no longer going to send any of their customers who come to visit them to this hotel Unless you want to be accused of something you didn’t do, have money stolen from you, and have the biggest headache of your life trying to clear your good name, I highly recommend you find another hotel to stay at***UPDATE***I won! It took more than 3 months to get my name cleared, but I was finally able to get the hotel’s bank to acknowledge that I did not do anything wrong and refund my money! This place will try to scam you STAY AWAY!

Dedicated to providing a great experience for the guests Swimming pool was clean and maintained well The fireplace outside was the highlight for a great chat with family and friends Ample parking space The complimentary water bottles throughout the stay adds to the convenience

Star Watkins

I don’t know where to start

I received the best customer service from Kari Lee I searched every hotel in the area with no luck for the level of comfort I’m accustomed She went above & beyond to make my staff the best I’ve while working since being in Grand Rapids She deserves Employee of The Month, A Gift Card, & a raise She is a Great Assest to the company brand because she knows what is required & goes the extra mile Oh, the room was really nice also Lol

Elizabeth Gusick

Understaffed and unable to control the multiple sports teams staying at hotel Large loud crowds of people gathering inside and out late at night and staff wouldn’t do anything about it Requested maid service but never got it throughout our stay

Requested toiletries that were missing upon arrival and never received them All in all a terrible experience

I checked into what was called the Executive Suite with a Jacuzzi tonight The room was disgusting The night stand/tables CLEARLY had not been touched

There was a sticky substance with hair The tv had splatters all over it which had dried The refrigerator had a nasty film where something had spilled and was not cleaned The hot tub had hair in it Even though I reported the condition of the room when I arrived, nothing was done I tried to make the best of it but end up leaving If I can’t trust the furnishings to be clean, you think I’m sleeping in the bed??? The front desk lady called the manager because I asked for a refund She said JOANN said for the front desk person to go clean the room UNACCEPTABLE! This room was $175 and I deserved a better room than this I was denied a refund even AFTER the front desk clerk went and verified my complaints Not a happy customer and will probably not return again

Annette Etchison

This was a very nice Best Western It appears to have been recently renovated and was done tastefully It was clean and the bed was comfortable

I’m not really a fan of the functionality of the barn door bathroom door, as it doesn’t actually completely close, though it sure looked nice I just think a bathroom door should completely close while in use

Tracy Hue

We only stayed one night and fit for that need However the first front desk person could not get an extra blanket because she didn’t know where they were, but the second one knew We did not check out the breakfast because we had to leave for competition

Also, the shower leaked and the bathroom door is a barn door slider that doesn’t lock Overall not a bad stayJust an FYI the large castle looking building in the picture is not the actual hotel It’s an apartment building The hotel is smaller

Weird layout to the rooms We liked the sitting area but not impressed that there isn’t a sink outside the bathroom Plumbing is INSANELY LOUD! Woke up this morning to what literally sounded like a person repeatedly smashing on our wall with a large hammer

It was from the pipes due to the people upstairs taking a shower Crazy insane loud! NOT a good way to start your day Toilet doesn’t flush properly, we need to take the lid off the tank and mess with the plunger Lock on bathroom door doesn’t work Pool area is VERY small The place is quite clean though and a very well stocked hot breakfast (coffee was very good too) Staff was very friendly and helpful

NehNette Swanson

I can’t say enough good things about this hotel!!! From the moment we walked in, when we received a fabulous welcome from the desk attendant, to the time we left, with more kind words from ANOTHER desk attendant, we were so pleased with this hotel The room was beautiful, clean, nicely appointed, and comfortable I noticed others comment on noise–that was not our experience even though the hotel was fairly full with lots of children running around

The complimentary breakfast the next morning was tasty and nicely laid out, and the lounging area was great Our only disappointment was the rain that started to fall just as we walked out to enjoy the outdoor firepit Not their fault! LOL! A great stay at a nice hotel with terrific staff Two thumbs-up!!!

Veronica Phoenix

The front desk staff was friendly and helpful However, we asked for a quiet room away from the highway, which we did get, but they put us directly above the firepit area which was supposed to close at 10 or 11pm There was a sports team out at the firepit ALL night

We called the front desk multiple times starting at 12am to no avail It was 6/7am before the party broke up – loud music, loud talking We paid to get sleep and got no sleep

Very happy! Our room was very clean, and the sheets and duvet were amazingly soft We had a double queen room and it was very spacious for our family with a really nice counter with a microwave, coffee maker, and fridge Jamie at the front desk checked us out, and he was so friendly and wanted to make sure we enjoyed ourselves

Brittney, our waitress for breakfast, did a wonderful job Breakfast had a lot of variety, and was delicious Would stay again!

Anne Stratton

Oh my This would be a 1 star rating at best but the woman working at the front desk was so genuinely helpful and considerate that I give 2 stars She was VERY friendly, helpful, and really seemed to care

A true asset to the hotel that left me leaving without being terribly angry as none of it was her fault The hotel is in need of some MAJOR cleaning and major repairs I had many issues during this stay, from no hot water at all in the evening, broken hair dryer, towels that smelled really bad, lotion that had clearly been used by another guest, filthy dirty carpeting, no working phone to call front desk in the room, etc I would not stay here again, but again the only saving grace was the front desk help, so I do appreciate that I have a picture of my socks which turned BLACK on the bottom after walking in the room for about an hour No kidding

Corey Whitworth

Stayed a single night in a king size suite The bathroom included an extra large shower area, however the toilet area was somewhat cramped The bed was comfortable and the room was spacious

Getting to the rooms beyond the conference rooms area was a bit confusing and the side door leading to the parking lot seemed to be finiky with our room keys Biggest complaint is the breakfast was $10 per person for an underwhelming selection Would not choose to stay here again as we’ve had better amenities at similarly priced hotels nearby

The room we got had a bed and a pullout sofa When we opened the sofa there was two old SOCKS that were easily visible Like, how can you not clean that? And there was some trash on the mattress as well

I obviously felt uncomfortable sleeping there Then, in the morning, housekeeping woke us up at 9:30AM, which we thought was so early and something we had never experienced in any other hotel Lastly, there was a BEETLE in the bathroom The whole room just felt so unhygienic and we felt uncomfortable being there For a Marriott hotel, we were extremely disappointed

Chad Tenglin

Stayed here for 8 days with my 2 kids for Junior Gold and we couldn’t of been happier with our decision The location is surrounded by a ton of places to eat and shop The employees were always nice and helpful

All the facilities worked(pool, exercise room), the comp express breakfast was on point Food was delicious and always had plenty to choose from The cafe lady was amazing! She works so hard! Always say hi and converses I did not sleep well(but I never do in hotels) but my kids slept great each night so I’m assuming the beds were comfortable enough The only flaw in the room is that the mini fridge wasn’t that cold I’d prefer it to be colder Maybe there’s a setting that I didn’t notice? For the deal I received through Junior Gold, it was well worth the stay and would have no issue staying here if I’m out in Grand Rapids again

Ann B.

This place has been great the older women who does breakfast is so sweet They have free laundry here and will give you detergent and dryer sheets! The morning cleaning crew has also been great with minor cleaning for my week stay The pool and hot tub are always open and clean

I went down with my 6 month old and had the pool to ourselves Very calming I recommend the King suit

A few girls I went to high school with got together for a girls weekend at the Holiday Inn Express off AlpineWe specifically booked this hotel because it’s in the “middle” for all of us and because they have a pool and hot tub We’re old(er) and were very much looking forward to the hot tub

When we got to the hotel it was clean, the front desk attendant was very polite and our room was just what we asked for, though the beds were a little hard but hey, it’s a hotel, not homeWe then ventured down to check out the pool and hot tub Much to our dismay, the pool and hot tub were filled with young teenage boys from a traveling baseball teamThe hot tub water was literally brown from a younger boy bringing his Matchbox cars from outside into the hot tub and the dirt had destroyed the once inviting waterWe asked the front desk attendant if there was any way it could be cleaned He didn’t have anyone available on staff to do it and he didn’t know how (completely understandable!)We had a good weekend and the staff was fantastic, the breakfast was amazing, more than I expected from a hotel We were just bummed that adults weren’t able to enjoy the pool and hot tub because of the kids

We had a very nice stay here The breakfast was supurb The rooms were clean and the staff was friendly

I will say our check-in was delayed for 2 hours due to staffing issues Might I suggest calling people if their check in will be later than it is posted online? Or at the very least offer some sort of benefit I know it’s tough for staffing everywhere, so still a 5 star stay

Michelle Whisler

We were overcharged each of the 3 nights we stayed at the hotel Every night a new transaction hit our bank account, even after they took all the money for the hotel stay upfront Ended up ruining our son’s birthday

We were told they would comp us 2 nights and never did Our TV and alarm clock didn’t work and there wasn’t a remote for one of the other TVs, so could only use 1 of the 3 TVs in our room The GM and most workers were rude The lady cleaning the tables for breakfast decided to spray the table my husband was sitting at and got the spray in his food The breakfast was a joke and most of the food was burnt or dried out after being out for so long Would never recommend staying there They made our family vacation the worst ever

Alan Gradolph

MG, the French gentlemen running the counter, was great Super kind and friendly the whole time we were there He let us cancel our second night without penalty, gave us weather info, told us about things to do in the area, and got our door handle fixed because it wasn’t catching right

The facilities are a little tired, but the room was huge (2BR suite) and worked great for our family of 4 We’ll be back!

The only thing that I was happy with is the continental breakfast and hot coffee There was a display with a complimentary bottle of water that read “Ask about me”

And when I asked I was told it was something they were doing a long time ago My question is why not take it down if you are know longer offering bottled water The rooms are dirty, some rooms were so bad that people asked to be moved to a different room The hotel is located in a drug infested area The staff was very nice and pleasant but that did not make up for filthy rooms I was there on business and if I had a choice in the matter I would have never chosen that hotel I will never go there again

Muktar Abasanbi

This hotel is very clean and the front desk people were nice My only recommendations are1 The windows are not sound proof

The noice from outside is loud2 I recommend putting toothpaste in the bathroom3 There is no smart TV in the room My kids tried to watch something on YouTube but the TV doesn’t support YouTube (not smart)Everything else, wonderful!

Ashton Fuoss

The room was okay, a lot of things were broken I smelled weed coming from somewhere at night The front desk attendant who checked us in did not answer my questions

He could not find our reservation at first, did not want to explain why I was being charged an extra 50 dollar deposit after I paid for the room months in advance We picked a room with a jetted heart shaped tub, the fixtures only produced water around 85 degrees and the spout was loose The doorknob on the bedroom door was brokenOverall not horrible, but not at all worth the price

Great location, although the shared driveway with the oil change/car wash business next door needs some love That pothole could swallow a car!The hotel itself and rooms were very clean, and relatively quiet We do travel with a white noise sound machine for our son, which I think really helped with the sound as I could still hear doors and other guests in the hallway, though it didn’t disturb us

The room was pretty small in comparison to other locations with the same room type, however it was still perfectly functionalIf you’re looking for a nice, clean, hotel in a good location to both the airport, shopping, and dining, I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here!

Kids were running up and down the hallways all night They kept playing in the elevator so nobody could use it Went to the exercise room and kids playing in there unsupervised

Manager told me it happens everytime the travel hockey teams are in town My advice is don’t stay here if travel hockey is in town They must pay more for their rooms then I did Didn’t get much sleep before our flight and the managers response seemed to be sorry about your luck really disappointed in Marriott

Very nice rooms, comfortable and clean! They even offered the option to cast on their TV so we could use one of our streaming service to watch a movie! The only reason I am giving 4 stars is because of the breakfast area and breakfast staff I have stayed here twice and both times the breakfast area has been under stocked and the breakfast staff has been less than willing to restock With that being said I would still highly recommend this hotel! All other service has been great!

Nice clean room, clean pool, pic a little misleading as thought there was a hot tub Beds were really nice and comfy until I was woken up by heavy footsteps, not sure if they were just from the hallways or above us but my husband and kids heard the same too Hot breakfast always a plus in the mornings but the scrambled eggs were a little salty

I think if I stayed here again I’d stay on the 4th floor to avoid anyones thunderous stomping

I did not even check inn On 6/16/22 I went to get a room because the app was not working The guy told me they were booked, then they weren’t

All this is fine but the constant sighing and attitude made me just walk out and not pay the $150 for the room Ii went to the Holiday Inn and Suites right up the road where they know customer service Whomever the front desk clerk was, should look for a job he might be better at Your job is to literally help people, not get an attidude when everything does not go right Way to high of a price to have people like that working there

I staid here for two nights as a part of a work trip Not having enough time to contact the hotel, I arrived pretty late for my check-in after a long road trip However, I was greeted with ease and convenience

The guest service manager, Amber, was very helpful and welcoming She insured that I would have a nice and comfortable arrival after my trip Shaun, the server and clerk, was nothing short of a great personality His positive attitude and tentative service made a simple breakfast meal feel like a warmly prepared home mealI would definitely stay here again and recommend it to my family and friends

Elle Zamarron

My husband and I made a spur of the moment decision to take a little staycation a few hours from home We booked this hotel for mainly the pool/hot tub for our two sons (2&3) but the whole hotel was immaculate! The pool and hot tub were great, the pool was so warm and very clean! My boys did not want to leave! We will definitely be back!

Karen Schultz

Hilton Garden Inns never disappoint, and this one was amazing Super friendly and accommodating staff Awesome, well presented food; made to order breakfast was fantastic

Wanted to stay another day to enjoy the Michigan shaped pool and indoor/outdoor hot tub more Super clean, as all Hilton brands are Will definitely stay there whenever I’m in Grand Rapids

Not a fun, the restaurant and lounge was good The rest needs mayor work Front desk staff at check in were rude and dismissive

Left waiting at airport because shuttle has a different hotel logo on it and Noone thought it was a good idea to mention thatAudio service in halls were very problematic throughout the convention Internet service kept dropping off or was completely goneBusiness center was out of order since we arrived of Wednesday even though it was part of our contractNo maid service, You need to get towels every day so you can wash up When will hotels start doing their full jobs again? If not, lower your prices

Chip Huffman

Of the 4 hotels we stayed at during our trip, this hotel ranks at the bottom and well below any of the others!! Front Desk employees while efficient, were far from customer friendly The restaurant is overpriced and mediocre at best The room was ok, but not special

The lack of bags in the trash cans was disturbing Luckily, we had several plastic grocery bags in the car to overcome this shortcoming In short, customer service does not seem to be a priority at this hotel

Olita Martin

My daughter was getting married and picked this hotel to house her guest in for that weekend Upon arriving I was greeted when it was time for me to pay it was a disaster It was a error on the merchant end

I’ve never felt so embarrassed before, I also had to call my bank I’ve never had to do that before Make a long story short I would never stay at Hilton establishment again I missed wedding rehearsal everything went bad after the check in went left my blood pressure was up I’m very upset about my check in experience I never received apology or anything My room was terrible I just didn’t want to report it cause I was so upset
