Holiday Inn Grand Rapids Downtown by IHG
Very nice hotel! Lobby and rooms were clean. Employees are friendly. The pool arena is nice, lots of bubbles in the hot tub lol. We ate breakfast at the restaurant downstairs, it's a little expensive but very good! Free parking in downtown is worth it in itself! Definitely staying here again.
