Byron Center Vacations from $281

I was disappointed with our stay at the Canopy in Grand Rapids. For the price we paid, I would have expected better. Housekeeping was an issue. When we arrived we had no handsoap in the room and I had to ask twice to get some. Also, after the first night, the maid only made up one of the two beds and didn't vacuum. The overall noise level made it difficult to sleep, even with a white noise machine running. Breakfast in the hotel was dry and unappetizing (the Canopy breakfast). As a relatively new building, the hotel was generally clean and in good repair. It is conveniently located and has plenty of available parking. However, it will not be my first choice next time I am in town.

Residential lodge doubling as nightly motel. Room shabby but clean. Excellent heat and hot water. Insufficient bedclothes. Room keys did not work and had to be replaced. Registration desk not staffed on weekends but the staff we got, while overworked, was very kind and helpful. Exterior lights burnt out and trash strewed on the grounds. There was a fork jammed in the bathroom sink drain. Drains had no covers or strainers -- watch out for your small property! Warning signs and handouts state that mgmt. not responsible for damage to your car, theft from car or room, heavy fines for loss of room keys, and otherwise make you feel unsafe and insecure. Suburban neighborhood with convenient gas, shops, and aromatic restaurants nearby. The price was right, only affordable lodging open in town that weekend, Not noisy; we slept well.
