It’s dirty the shower wall is broken and they just put putty on it we walked in and there was a man that pulled in stumbling around and drunk out of his mind. We paid for 2 queen beds and we got beds barely bigger than a twin size bed. Only half of the TV remote works the coffee maker is filthy. Everything is just gross

The hotel was under renovations, but our room was recently updated and felt clean and modern. Nothing fancy but a good price near lots of the Traverse Area attractions.

As a former CHOICE hotel Manager for Comfort Suites South in Grand Rapids, Mi., I was so impressed by the new management of this hotel. Their friendly, hospitable service, coupled with clean comfortable rooms, pool and exterior care shows they care for both for the CHOICE brand and their property. I was impressed and enjoyed my visit!

Upon entering rm was hit by earthly smell (mold) air conditioning increased mold smell. Couldn't breath, equipment didn't work, no lights or H2O, and towel rack above toilet ready to fall on you while you use toilet. Toilet was only thing working & it was filthy....Worst, & most unhealthy place I was forced to stay. When you check in at 9 at night you have no choice ugh... Asthma attacks, blankets visablely stained. I took pictures of fixtures hanging from walls, dried urine all over...... Yes worst
It's visibly not level. Thatsb beacause it's hanging out of wall
Where towel rack should be connected
TV duck taped to keep it up
A stain one or two of MANY
