    Bathroom needs an update, broken tile, excessive caulk everywhere. Typical Hindu, Muslim repair tactic. Don't fix it, just put a band aid on it 😵‍💫. I was a big fan of Choice Hotels, but our stays this year driving down to Nashville, and this recent trip along Lake Michigan (Comfort Inn, Quality Inn, Roadway) have been disappointing, all Hindu/Muslim managed franchises. I was impressed with Roadway in Grand Haven Michigan, they were remodeling rooms, contemporary decor. Do you guys actually inspect these places? We stopped at Quality Inn in Indiana where we walked out. They had a sign at lobby desk requiring a $100 deposit if you used a credit card. The counter was shielded off by plexiglass ( another trademark by theses franchise owners)

    King bed, comfy..

     The sheets and bed was clean, but the tables and dressers were sticky and dirty and it was just kind of dirty. It was a very small room. our TV was broken and we had to call them in to fix it.

    The people that work they were very nice.

    “100% smoke free facility” smelled like 100% cigarette smoke in the hall way, and the language barrier with the clerk.

    good location. next to a McDonalds (since there was no “breakfast”) and just down the road from the highway.

    The room itself was dirty. The carpet had stains and stuff stuck in/on it. The side tables and furniture had icky stuff on it. I used my colox wipes from my truck to wipe everything down in the room.

    The price point was good.

    There were no options for hot water for tea. Even with a microwave there were no cups I could have used. Not everyone drinks coffee. It was dirty—the top of the microwave in my room had red sticky stuff. The tub also appeared dirty, thank goodness I was only taking a shower. There was no stopper in the sink and I needed to wash out a shirt so I used the ice bucket. The ice bucket didn’t come with a plastic liner but the ice machine barely put out any ice. The carpet in the hallways were dingy. There were no hangers in the room to hang anything up on. Very environmentally unfriendly with little bottles of shampoo and plastic wrapped soap. There should be dispensers for shampoo, conditioner and body wash that can be refilled. The furniture was dark and dated, but I wasn’t spending much time there, nor did I want to. The breakfast area had a cold case for milk and juice, the outside was dirty as if no one wiped it down each morning. I felt like I wanted to use hand sanitizer after getting milk out for my coffee. The breakfast options were of no import to me as I was eating elsewhere anyway. However it was all cheap processed carbs. For $90 a night, it would be appropriate to provide fruit such as bananas and apples as well as protein sources such as yogurt cups and cheese sticks.

    I was participating at an adult choral camp at Blue Lake. I only needed a place to rest my head. The property was close to Blue Lake Fine Arts camp so I liked the proximity. I liked that I could get a hot shower. The bed was reasonably comfortable and the towels seemed cleaned and as expected quality wise for the level of hotel. I was in room 115 which seemed to be outfitted as a handicapped room so I liked that it had no carpet which made it feel cleaner and the tub had lots of grab bars so considering you didn’t know how slippery the tub might be was a great assurance.
