Check in was 4 o’clock but rooms were not ready til 6! Then there was candy rappers next to night stand. The outside beach was beyond dirty. Towels everywhere, dirty clothes and toys also. They were there the entire time of our stay. Complained but they did nothing. I’ve been here many times but this trip was such a let down.

Very Nice Hotel. Sadly they put us in a handicapped room and the hand held shower nozzle did not get much pressure. We told the staff about it on day 1 of 2 and they said they fixed it while we were gone sightseeing, but when we got back it still did not perform correctly. We ended up showering at the local YMCA om day 2. Frustrating. Room service free Breakfast each morning was nice.

An error was made when I made the reservation; I requested a water side room and was given a parking lot, handicapped room. After a call to the desk, I was told that nothing could be done. Later that evening, at dinner, I received a call telling me that there was a cancellation and they’d move my belongings. The second room was perfect. I wish I could give you the name of the young lady who helped me on Friday afternoon, May 3rd. My thanks to her. Parking was a problem.

the room was clean but the light between the beds was missing a knob to turn it on that was rectified later that day. In the middle of the night we were woken by a load yelling and talking in the hallway outside our room. there was a domestic instance that included the police. The disturbance lasted several hours. I called the front desk and the person their said it included the police and if i wanted to see if they could move it or be more quiet i should go out into the hallway and make that request.

We've stayed there before and love it. This time our room wasn't clean. We found scraps of food behind the table and women's underwear in between the mattress and the wall. We were right by the outside door so there was quite a bit of noise.

Grand Beach has a spectacular view of Grand Traverse Bay. The Beach frontage, right outside of the hotel is lovely too. The decor in the rooms and the hotel common spaces is pleasant and comfortable. Loved the lighthouse table lamp/night light! The coffee in the lobby was delicious/Starbucks. The desk staff and other employees were always pleasant and helpful. Nice quality pool towels. And good boxed breakfast.
