I live in Lansing, which is around a ten minute drive away. I stay at this hotel on the weekends (sometimes with my husband) after a stressful week just to get away from everything in my personal life. I enjoy the peace and quiet. I rent a room about once a month and have been going here for about a... More

The guy in the front desk was so rude that I just wanted to live as soon as I talked to him, but I was so tired that I decided to give it a try. When I went to see the room I was almost in shock, everything looked really dirty and old and the smell made me want to... More

To Mary W., I would like to personally apologize for your stay at our property. I am very sorry that our front desk employee was rude to you, as we do not accept that behavior from our employees. I would also like to apologize for the condition that you stated of the room. That is unacceptable standards and we are... More

Just aweful. By far the WORST Super 8 I have been to. Run down, dirty, rusty, moldy. Anything nasty, you name it. If the hotels in the area hadn't been booked for the weekend, we would have turned around and left as soon as we opened the door. Curtains were broken, light fixtures and outlets didn't work. There were holes... More

Dear Guest Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback regarding our motel. I am disappointed that we could not make your stay more comfortable. I would like to assure you that we have swept the room you stayed in for bed bugs and we could not find any. We pride ourselves on making a constant effort to... More

I drive charter buses and parking for large vehicles was good. The rest goes down from here. Beds seemed okay, but no or only lukewarm water for showers, room had been repainted, windows were dirty, carpet needed to be replaced. Free breakfast was a joke, stale ceral, small amount of milk, juice and coffee. Manager came in carrying two muffins,... More

where do i start? DIRTY everything, nothing on the bed was clean (pillows, sheets, blankets, etc). Horrible traffic noise. Remote did not work. Knobs on "tub" for shower did not barely turn and "luke warm" water came on after about 10 minutes. Dirty floors, dirty carpets, dirty towels. Horrible smells. Door barely locked. I only handled it for one night... More

We came in the night of bar exam at MSU and this was the only game in town available. After staying I can see why. The windows were dirty and stained. The bedspreads looked like they hadn't been washed. The chairs were tattered and torn. The morning breakfast was bananas, fruit loops and stale muffins. So fitting for the condition... More

I drive buses for a charter service, so parking is something I look for. The bus parking in the back was nice. Pulling onto the property there was a 5gal bucket with caution tape warped around it to show you where a grate had fallen into the drain. When I left after the week it was still there. The bed...

I planned to stay here after hiking the MSU spur of the Lansing River Trail based on the online advertised price of 42-43 dollars. Got there and was told that there was only one single-bed room left at 57 (this was a week day), but figured I should have made a reservation. Got to my room and found a plugged/leaky... More

Dirty rooms, terrible customer service, broken beds, carpets were filthy, and the rooms smelled as if they hadn't been cleaned in years. Overpriced, and the workers were rude. I have never had stayed in a more disgusting place in my life. I will never go back and would never advise anyone to go there. Sleeping in my car would have... More
