After 1-wk of Motel 6's & their paper thin walls, this Quality Inn was a breath of fresh air for me.
Pros:
* Price. $48 as a walk-in, with a AAA discount, when I stayed in mid-April 2019. I was paying more for dicey TX M6's.
* Super comfy king bed & warm comforter & really quiet, ahh! There was a large burn hole in my top sheet, but again, coming from a week at M6's, I can be forgiving. Double sliding curtains... 1 a black out curtain & the other to allow light in but allow privacy... a nice touch.
* WiFi was great once I asked the front desk to reset the router. Staff even came to the room to ensure I could connect once it was reset (my room phone didn't work). All staff was very nice... it's a family owned hotel, they seem to enjoy their guests & are great with customer service.
* Small fridge, microwave, plenty of space, quick working wall a/c-heater, alarm clock, in room coffee pot, but only 1 decaf & 1 regular packet. They do offer free b'kfast from 6-9am.
* Washer/dryer in hotel, if you need it. Outdoor pool, but I came to sleep, so I didn't see it.
* There is a flat screen TV, but no premium movie channels.
* Convenient location off MI Hwy 49. Several gas stations nearby & if you're into fast food, there's plenty in this small town, from Subway to Huddle House to a Krystal's next door that you can reach via a 10-second walk.
* Safe, quiet 'hood... I'm unsure why another poster said it was a dicey 'hood. I don't know where he lives, but I'm thinking he's never even driven through some of the genuinely dicey 'hoods I've lived in, in varying inner cities. Nothing 'hood about this area.
Cons:
* Room was slightly overlooked in the housekeeping dept. Nothing horrible, but since my room phone wasn't working & I needed to call the front desk to reset the router, I had to pull away the nightstands on either side of the bed to see if it were disconnected & there was a candy wrapper, used Kleenex & dust behind them. Still, couldn't get the phone to work so I had to call the front desk on my cell.
* Lots of lighting, but several of the bulbs are fairly low wattage, so not very useful. Still, there were 5 lamps to make up for it.
Overall, a really restful stay, which is all I wanted.
Solid 3.75* out of 5. Minus a bit for the room glitches, but because they happily took care of any & all, that excellent customer service made a huge difference.
I doubt I'll be back this way, but I'd definitely stay again. read more
