“Can't wait to go back!”
This hotel was more than everything we expected. We wanted a place for "Taste of Kalamazoo" weekend, near our daughter, a Western grad. student. Staybridge is a beautiful place set back off the main road, and close to good restaurants. It has its own courtyard, pool, etc, and a work out room with good cardio equipment and flat screen cable TV. Library/computer area was heavily visited by guests. The suite, which was no more expensive than a regular hotel room, had a kitchen with full fridge, stove, sink, coffee pot, dishes, soap, s&p, sugar and creamer packets. (We boiled corn on the cob!) There was a pullout sofa and full bedding set in the closet if our daughter had wanted to sleep over. The desk clerk told us about the special breakfast next morning, and was very welcoming. (Hot food was continually cooked in the kitchen until the breakfast hour ended; therefore, no rush to get down before other guests as with most continental breakfasts. Also, lots of tables and room to sit.) There was a DVD player, and pullout TV that angled where you wanted it. Iron and board in closet. I just couldn't ask for a beter experience. The only thing that may have gone wrong is that I wanted a hotel without pets, as my husband has severe animal allergies. There was a dog in the hotel one day, but he didn't seem to be bothered by it. I don't know if it was a hotel guest or not, but it's something to consider. All in all, I hate to let the secret out about this place-I want it available!
