“We rated it a 4, but the staff deserves a 6”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012

We travel all over the mid west on a weekly basis. A new hotel every week. The value is wonderful and the staff was terrific. The building is older and could use a bit of up grading. Overall, it was a great value for business travel and it was clean. Our room was close to the road and we expected to hear more road noise, but it was not an issue. The breakfast was the normal continental breakfast with a terrific coffee/hot cocoa machine. Loved it! My husband said the review that was po'd about the bad continental breakfast needs to go to "Old Country Buffet" and complain about not having a doggy bag. Overall, we will be back on our next trip.

Room Tip: The handicapped room was very spacious. We needed the microwave and refridgerator. This room came wi...

“It's a place to sleep...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2011

I honestly wouldn't stay here for longer than one night. The room was overpriced and I felt like I went back in time. The decor in the room looked like it was from the 80s. Also don't count on your typical continental breakfast. There's no eggs and bacon here. It's two kinds of cereal, bagels and muffins. Very poor selection. We also didn't feel completely safe here. We were in the room right to the exit door, which was left open overnight. No one monitored whether it was closed and locked so anyone could've walked in. Again, if you have to stay here, I wouldn't stay for longer than one night.

Thank you for reviewing your stay at our hotel. I am so sorry you were unhappy with your stay. In regards to the decor, our hotel will be undergoing decor upgrades throughout the winter season. We will be adding flat screen tv's, King size beds new artwork and more to many of our rooms. Our breakfast is a standard continental and is directly in line with brand standards that Wyndham Worldwide has detailed for us. However, Wyndham is rolling out a new breakfast program that will be present in all Super 8 properties within the coming year. As for the exterior door staying open...this has been remedied and thank you for bringing this to our attention. We had some work done on the doors last week and the door adjacent to your room was not adjusted properly. The glass company that performed the work has adjusted the door and the safety lock mechanism is again functioning properly.

“Bed bugs in Super 8 Traverse City”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 October 2011

I checked into the Super 8 Motel located at 1870 N us hwy 31 N Traverse City MI. Oct. 7th. I paid in advance for four nights. Later that evening I noticed bed bugs in the bed. I reported it to the desk employee and was told that there was no manager on duty and no one available to check the room. I spent a sleepless night with the lights on while killing bugs. I called around looking for another hotel but they were booked. I tried more than once to find someone in charge to look into the situation. No one would help me. I was actually told that I had no business checking the room by one man at the desk.

I had already paid for the room but called around to find another and they were booked in the area because of local events taking place. I was over a thousand miles from home and spent four sleepless nights with the light on, killing bugs and getting bitten.
I returned home and called the hotel to complain. They flatly denied a refund and stated the rooms were free of bed bugs. They are not! Beware!

I am sorry that you were unhappy with your stay.

I do need to inform you, as I did your husband in his review from October 13th that our hotel does not have bed bugs. We are voluntarily inspected on a monthly basis, and upon learning of your complaint I had our pest control company re-inspect your room and several others just to be sure. Our pest control company did not find any indication of the presence of bed bugs in your room or any others. As the General Manager of this property I am also professionally trained to detect bed bugs and I routinely spot inspect all of our rooms. I will also make the inspection reports available upon request, as I am absolutely confident that there are no bed bug concerns in this building.
