Cleanliness feedback is mixed, ranging from clean rooms to recurring issues like stained carpets, odors, pests, and bathroom wear.

The sink water came out brown for a couple minutes and had a bad smell after. Reserved a few months in advance and when we arrived the pool was closed to remove the hot tub. Asked for a refund for one of my two days as we chose it for the pool and they said no "it was posted on the website, so no refunds". Was told to let the water run and it should clear up. It did clear up, but when I turned it on about 10 minutes later it started out brown again. Stayed the first night and checked out first thing in the morning.

Where to start...we happened to book this room on the same weekend as the NHRA auto show weekend. Made parking the first night tight, but with the hundreds of people that overtook the area Friday and Saturday night, actual hotel patrons could not access the hotel parking, and the crowd that had assembled just overran the whole area. We wore socks in our room that turn black on the bottoms after an hour or two due to the dirty carpeting. Bathtub shower VERY slippery, no hand assist bars - be careful! Whole property needs updating. Breakfast: so-so, powdered eggs and sausage or waffles every morning, no oatmeal. Fitness area was poor, treadmills unusable or non functional, carpeting filthy. Young lady at desk was sincerely apologetic, but thst's where the hospitality ended. Will be back to Kalamazoo, but will search for better accomodations.

One of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in. I stay in hotels at least one weekend a month if not more. This hotel is filthy. People were fighting in the middle of the night on both nights that we stayed and multiple car alarms were going off all night long. People were purposely setting the car alarms off. They have no security to help control the problems that they let stay in the hotel. The windows do not seal so you will here every noise outside. The pool is green and full of alge. The breakfast is horrible. Hotel Smells like dog and cat pee. Ice machine was broken. Pop machine is so loud you can here it inside the hotel rooms. DO NOT STAY in the hotel ever!- beware

Lobby/breakfast area was clean. Carpeting in my room was sticky through out the room. Desk chairs were covered in unknown stains. Both the carpeting and chairs were in desperate need of shampooing. Attempted to use the pool area with my grand-daughter. Left because the pool walls were dirty. Grab bars leading into the pool were loose and wobbly where they connected to the floor. Paint on the pool deck was peeling and chipping.

As you exit the elevator and head to your room, there was a lingering smell of spice, weed, and urine. The room and bathroom reeked like urine. There was a mold growth ring inside the toilet. Existing drops of urine were visible in front of the toilet. It was disgusting! At this point, we didn’t want to change rooms as it was clear by the condition of the hotel, we weren’t going to get anything better and it was late in the evening. My husband just laid a couple of towels on the floor. Did notify guest services the next morning as we headed out to start our planned activities. They offered to go clean the room, but we rejected the offer. I explained, I booked/paid for the room and this should’ve been done prior. Plus, we were leaving and did not want people entering the room. We also saw non-guest members walk in and out asking to use the bathroom. This was confirmed by guest relations telling them they weren’t allowed to take beverages from the breakfast area. One night, there was a large crowd of people drinking and playing loud music in the parking lot that spilled over to the Enterprise across the street. The area does not feel safe. We will never stay here again.

My room was disgustingly dirty and had old dog treats under the chair and dog hair on the floor. There was also wet spots on the carpet and splashed gross unidentified substance on the bottom of the bed. Absolutely disgusting. And all the front desk offered me was to make a note that I wasn’t the one that made the room dirty. Unexceptionable and disgusting. 0 out of 10 rating!!!!!!! Front desk extremely not helpful as well. This property should be ashamed!

Pictures say 1000 words. Hotel in Paw Paw was nice. We were here 3 or 4 hours. It was too dirty to stay. The manager did try moving us to a different room, which was dirty as well. Good place to go if u enjoy cleaning the room yourself, finding half eaten cupcakes on the floor, crumbs/dirt around the perimeter of the room, sticky substances on the counters, ect, ect, ect. I have never left a hotel room, but after seeing the second room, we left. I have small children and i travel weekly for business all over the USA. I didnt see bugs, but we weren't there long. Further, Hotels.com has told me that they cant get me a refund. Not really sure why. Apparently they cant get in contact with the manager at this hotel? I will be contacting my bank for what i should do next as i was only at this hotel for a few hours before leaving due to it not being in advertised condition.

The room had some mileage. It looked like the bathtub caulk was wearing out. The hot water didn't last very long. The toilet had a tendency to run because the internal tank hardware needs replacing. And the bathroom doorstop was a toe stubbing hazard (they really should've gone for the hinge door stop, given the room layout). That said, the staff was very friendly and helpful and the room was cozy and comfortable. If you just need a place to sleep while visiting Kalamazoo, it's a good choice.

The staff we friendly and accommodating . Definitely needs updating. When we got to our room . There was no nob to turn on the shower on . A maintenance man was on the floor within minutes to apply a nob . But i could spit harder than the shower water pressure. Me and my husband didn't bother to call we just laughed about it. The parking lot always had shady people walking through, i think the area around it is not the safest. Definitely stay away from the Dennys acrossed the street. The bed was worn but clean. Location is the best part very closed to everything. Pool needs a major updating. Cracking paint i didn't even go in it was so worn out. Gym was good. Breakfast was good only 1 waffle maker , makes for a long wait time.

I thought I was staying at a hotel. This location seemed to a home for some people down on their luck. There was a lot of updating and maintenance that needs to be done. I was there for a dog show. When I checked in, no word was mentioned about an extra fee. The second day I had pounding on my door and a gruff man stating that I will be charged $200 for having dogs. I felt spied on and accused of doing something wrong when it was their responsibility to address this at check in.

The hotel is a little out dated but seem to be clean for the most part. Bed and shower were both good and air worked well in the room. We were in a non smoking room and I thought area and keep smelling cigarette and pot, that was the downfall. Which may of been people in for the concert smoking it. Front desk service checking in was super nice and checking out I had asked him for a receipt and price and was told they couldn’t provide that and I would have to get it from where I booked from. He was nice about it but I found that odd when all over hotels have provided a receipt and if not, then told me exactly what I was charged. My husband and I were in town for one night for a concert and walked to Wings Event center. It’s about a mile but seem to work out well. This was book way in advance and I got a great in the price. I will stay again.
