Alto Hotel with Pool

"Loved the breakfast and dinner. did not use pool"

"Staff were friendly and helpful. While the hotel was generally clean, it needed some freshening up. With that being said, it was a perfect "close to the airport" and the city hotel. The free airport shuttle was so helpful! I had to leave for the airport at 4am and the driver was in the lobby waiting for me when I came down. I only stayed one night and left too early to get breakfast. However, the breakfast area looked wonderful. I would definitely stay here again."

"Overall, it was an okay stay. Friday night to Sunday morning. Breakfast was alright, if you like the frozen stuff that thaws out in those metal trays. The waffle area was a mess, but breakfast was fine overall. The pool and hot tub were functional. There was A LOT of loose hair and floating specs of God-knows-what in the pool. The beds were not very comfortable, and the pillows were very flat. There were some stains on the baseboards that looked like vomit that had crusted over. There were small copper-colored stains on some towels and bed sheets. It wasn't a terrible stay, but there were a lot of small things that my attention to detail caught. The staff was very helpful and accommodating."

"I was impressed that they served a mini omelette…never had that anywhere else. Also, there was a large variety of breakfast choices. The room was crisp and clean too!"

"I HAD TO MOVE THE MATTRESS TO FIND MY EAR BUD. THERE WERE HOLES FROM OLD OUTLETS NOT COVERED AND DUST AND COBWEBS, THE ROOM HAD A HOLE IN THE WALL, THE BATHROOM HAD COBWEBS IN THE LIGHT FIXTURES, THE TUB WAS PEELING, THE PAINT WAS BUBBLE AND TORN ON THE CEILING IN THE BATHROOM, THERE WAS A HANDICAP SHOWER CHAIR IN THE BATHROOM WHICH WE DID NOT REQUEST AND IT HAD HAIR LEFT ON IT. HOT WATER IN THE SINK WAS WEAK, SHOWER PRESSURE WAS AVERAGE, BUT THE SHOWER HEAD WAS PLACED TO LOW TO COMFORTABLY SHOWER. BREAKFAST WAS AS ADVERTISED A BASIC CONTINENTIAL BREAKFAST. THE SHEETS WERE CLEAN BUT HAD HOLES IN THEM AND THE BLANKET WAS ALSO CLEAN BUT HAD STAINS. THE GIRL WHO CHECKED US IN WAS GREAT. I DON'T EXPECT PERFECTION AT A CHEAP HOTEL, BUT I DO EXPECT IT TO BE CLEAN EVERYWHERE AND PROPERLY MAINTAINED FOR GUEST SAFETY. ROOM ALSO HAD A MINI FRIDGE AND MICROWAVE WHICH WAS NICE TO HAVE. COULDN'T COMMENT ON ANY OTHER AMENITIES WE DID NOT USE THE WORK OUT ROOM OR POOL. "

"Didn't seem worth the premium. Kind of a tired property, bath drain broken, no free breakfast."

"Everything was great"

"My husband and I decided to stay the night at the Grand Amway Hotel in Grand Rapids to celebrate his birthday. We selected a room on the 24th floor. The room itself was average with a typical TV, desk, chair, and king sized bed. The dimmer lights were a nice touch. Unfortunately the bathroom was a huge disappointment. The water pressure from the sink was low and it took so long for the water to heat up. The toilet required flushing three times when just flushing toilet paper because the paper would float back up. The worst part was the shower. The drain was so slow that the water from the shower rose above my ankles while showering. I had to stop my shower several times because I was worried it would overflow onto the bathroom floor. It’s hard to feel clean when water you are washing your body with is rising up over your feet and ankles. While the building itself looks impressive, our room and overall experience with the staff was disappointing. We had stayed at the Marriott across the street six months earlier and were much more impressed with the staff and room, even with being on the 3rd floor. We have no desire to revisit the Grand Amway again. "

"I was in town for a concert and chose this property across the river from the downtown core - a short walk away - as the parking was free. A free shuttle to the venue (and pick up afterwards) was a bonus as the weather was dubious. I prepaid for the breakfast buffet which was standard fare but hot and convenient. Our server was lovely. The room was clean and the decor updated. Staff were pleasant and helpful. I would stay here again without hesitation! "
