Affordable Suites of America Grand Rapids

Fresh paint, modern look, full kitchen, good heat (has only furnace) and big suite. A friendly man called me while I was on my way down state. He was friendly. I was shocked to learn that the front desk closes at 3 PM on a Saturday. Issues: Smoke Detector chirping for a new battery for the entire stay. Called the "emergency" number when we arrived about it. Told couldn't do anything about it then. Would send someone in the AM--they didn't. It chirped until we left at 10:45 am. No stop for the sink. How do you wash your dishes??? No plates, silverware, or cookware for the kitchen, which is okay if the description told you that. I come prepared for that, but noting that would help other travelers. The sliding closet doors are not on their railing, so they are just for looks, I guess? There isn't a single garbage can or garbage bage in the place. AND you have to take your garbage out to a dumpster by another building. WHO TRAVELS WITH GARGES BAGS/CANS??? Who books a room and does garbage detail?? I had high hopes when I entered the room. From the first chirp on, it was downhill from there.

Staff is friendly. Some of the guests however, lack consideration for the property. The way guests leave there trash around the bins is RIDICULOUS

I would not recommend as the property has VERY limited hours for check-in. Details on ******* DOES NOT explain that the property is only open from 9am to 3-5pm. I would strongly advise against reserving this property for travelers with a schedule.

It was cozy. Could use some upgrades, cold spots in the suite.

Staff was nice. Room was a little ruff.

We were not able to get into the room. Finally we were let in and was told if we left we would have to call to be physically let in again. TV not working. They said I was not charged for the room but the charge is still on my card.
