Exceptional Stay Near the Airport! From the moment I arrived, this hotel exceeded my expectations. The location is unbeatable—just minutes from the Grand Rapids airport, which made travel incredibly convenient. The property felt fresh and well-maintained, with a modern design and a welcoming atmosphere. My room was spotless, quiet, and spacious, with a super comfortable bed and strong water pressure in the shower (a detail frequent travelers will appreciate!). The complimentary breakfast was hot, varied, and well-stocked—even on a busy morning. Staff members were consistently friendly and attentive, making me feel right at home. The shuttle service was a huge plus—reliable and easy to coordinate.Whether you're flying in for business or leisure, this hotel delivers comfort, convenience, and great value. I’ll definitely be staying here again! Dr. Gerald Baraza
