“Dishonest Staff-steal things left in rooms”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 November 2010

Worst hotel ever! for the price this hotel is nasty, it is a total rundown dump. I also left a brand new dress on the hanger in a dress bag hanging on the bathroom door. I went to the MSU vs Purdue game after the game remembered that I left the dress there immediatley called the hotel back and the front desk girl told me they did not find anything but the housekeeping staff went home she would give the manager a call and someone would call me back. I received no call back so I called the next day when housekeeping would be there and was told by the front desk clerk that the hanger and the bag were found but NO dress. I called back and spoke with the manager where the manager also told me he found the hanger and the bag but no dress and they were not responsible for lost items. I told him that at this point that it wasn't lost that it was stolen he argued with me telling me it wasn't stolen. I got absolutley nowhere with this management staff leave nothing in your room they are very dishonest.

“Better than it used to be”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 May 2010

We are in town doing construction work. They gave us a great rate. New beds, the rooms have been fixed up from a couple of years ago. Still didn't change the carpet though. The internet is on again off again, sucks for the most part. Staff was very friendly. Asked for a new shower curtain and got one the next day. They took care of any requests we had asap. It's nothing special, but it was clean and cheap.

“Horrible Place! Enter at Your Own Risk”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 September 2009

The Super 8 in East Lansing was horrible. Seriously bad. I half expected to find a chalk outline of a body on the carpet.

We were in town to watch the Final Four tournament in which MSU played. This place was so bad I slept on the bed with my clothes on. To say it was dirty is an understatement. The bathroom was enough to make you gag with spiders under washcloths, etc. And there was the most vile, indescribable smell.

Fortunately, we got toasted at a local bar. There's no way we could've slept here if we hadn't.

Do yourself a favor: Stay anywhere in E Lansing but here.

“go elsewhere”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 July 2009

We had guaranteed reservations for a handicapped room at the Super 8 E Lansing/University Area last Friday. When we arrived, the room we were given was simply not acceptable. It was too small for a manual wheelchair, and would have been inaccessible for a scooter. Incredibly, it had an approximately 1” step at the front door and at the restroom entrance (I had to go in backwards). Entry to the commode required a sharp 90o turn through a door that was too narrow for a wheelchair, and the room would have been too small to transfer (but I couldn’t get in anyway). There were no grab bars at either the tub or commode. It was a handicapped room in name only, and the manager didn’t seem to understand what a handicapped room needed. We asked that the desk clerk make suitable arrangements for us at another location (which he reluctantly did). My wife also talked with other (not handicapped) customers who were upset about their accommodations too.
