This motel was very comfortable for me. The staff was very kind and the service was wonderful. I got one bed for one night at a great price . It had a fridge, microwave, coffeemaker, and cable t.v. But what was most convenient for me, was the bunch of restaurants and stores with in walking distance. It helped me a... More

This was a great motel and I will definitely come here again. This was my 4th time coming to the motel and I got my room at a really good price and I also actually received a lot of discount for food. I showed my key to the restaurants and they gave me a good discount for my food, which... More

I travel to Grand Rapids often to visit friends and family, and always stay here. It is a nice quaint family owned business. The price is convenient, restaurants are within walking distance. The owners a very friendly and polite, and always there to help out. Will be staying there again!

Stay away! We have never had a worse experience at any motel or hotel. They do not post their room rate on their website or in their office. They charged us $199.00 for one night.Read again - they charged our card $199.00 because we booked a late reservation. They don't provide a room receipt. You have no idea what you... More

We ended up staying here by chance -- trying to avoid the more expensive internet bookings. For $59 a night, we got a suite with 2 queen beds and a kitchenette -- total of 5 people! Plan to bring your own pans and dishes, and you could really save a lot of money on eating out. The motel is a... More

This is a small, family run place, so you won't get corporate newness. They could use some paint in a few places and the furniture does not all match, but it's clean, and everything works and they seem to be working on improvements. Some might consider this a bit run down, but I call it quaint. In exchange for everything... More

The location of the place is wonderful and in walking distant to restaurants. The staff was very helpful when my computer was not reading their wireless signal and it took them a very long... More

I stopped after a long ride on the motorcycle, got into my room. Brought in my gear and headed out for some pizza. After a couple of beers with dinner I returned to the room and don't know if it was ever cleaned from the last guest. Of all the motels I have stayed in this one was the worst.
