Staybridge Suites Kalamazoo

I am not sure why this hotel has such good reviews. The only positive thing about this place was that the pool was warm. The negative about the pool was that there was garbage and other people’s towels thrown about and no one seemed to care.
We stayed in a two bedroom suite and the first room we were given was absolutely filthy. The carpets were stained in all rooms, the bathrooms were dirty, the kitchen had food debris all over, and there was some very strange things next to the refrigerator on the floor. The smell was awful as well. Thankfully we were able to switch to a room across the hall that was in better shape, but still had its issues.
There was still dirt and food stains in the kitchen and the bathrooms could have used some extra attention. Also, the light bulbs could be checked every now and then to make sure they work and match. Not sure why that would be to much to ask for especially after the price you pay.
Maybe the other people that post good reviews live in filth and don’t care about the cleanliness of their home.

Quite possibly the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in. We requested to be moved three times and then toured two more rooms all of which were filthy. The front desk guy couldn’t even be bothered to get off the phone to speak with me, just shoved keys at me. The floors hadn’t been vacuumed in ages, there were stains everywhere, food smears all over the kitchens, the pots and pans were caked with old food and there were pubes all over the bathrooms. This was literally every room we stayed in and the two we toured before giving up and sleeping on top of the sheets for 5 hours and high tailing it out of there. We requested to speak with the manager and left phone messages/​voicemails but finally had to resort to calling the IHG line. Thankfully our points and pet fee were returned.

We stayed here this past weekend to attend my college reunion. This was not my first choice, since I had never stayed here before, but it will be my first choice in the future.
This was a great location. It is on Stadium Drive close to the expressway. It is a couple miles from Western Michigan University and Kalamazoo College, and only a few miles from downtown.
The staff is phenomenal. Everyone was so friendly and helpful.
Our room was large, clean, and comfortable.
There is a pool and hot tub that are both decent size and temperature. The pool looks out into the pretty courtyard, which gives it a nice view.
There is a courtyard with grills! In the summer it would be lovely to eat breakfast out there.
The breakfast was one of the best free hotel breakfasts I’ve ever had. There were scrambled eggs, sausage, hard boiled eggs, freshly made oatmeal, wide assortment of pastries, cereals, fruits (including a great fruit salad). There were even toppings to make your own breakfast sandwiches. And everything was refilled so it was fresh!
There was a nice sitting area in the front. This looked very comfortable, and even had some books you could borrow.
This was also a great deal! The weekend was ~$ 250 including taxes.
Oh, and they have free parking and free wifi.
I will absolutely be staying here next time I’m in Kalamazoo!

Best hotel stay in the USA for me in a very long time. I particularly enjoyed breakfasting in the garden area with my family and friends. The breakfast and desk staff were professional and excellent, constantly bring out fresh eggs or oatmeal. The room had a kitchen area with small refrigerator. Well off the road, the room had windows you could open for a cool night breeze — really enjoyed my stay and will be back.

The staff here couldn’t be nicer. My wife and I had a horrible day and found ourselves needing a place to stay. They were fantastic and wonderful to us!

For a business traveler, you simply can’t do better than the Staybridge in Kalamazoo. The staff is very friendly. I started getting greeted by my first name by my second stay. Great breakfast and dinners included during the week too. Free gourmet coffee, popcorn in every room. Rooms are perfect and very quiet.
I’ve stayed here now 5 times and can think of anything bad at all. This is a very well managed and maintained hotel.

I loved my stay at this hotel. The staff was so friendly, the facilities were so clean, the breakfast was fantastic and they were dog friendly which was a plus. The room décor is very nice, and although the hotel is not brand new, it sure looked like it. I was definitely impressed and will be back whenever I travel back to the area!

So much more than I expected!
I stayed at the Staybridge Suites during a long move across several states because it was close to the highway and offered complementary hot breakfast and wifi. What I discovered when I arrived was that this jewel also offered complementary dinner (Tues/​Wed/​Thurs nights), free laundry facilities (soap was $ 1.00), a 24-​hour store stocked with travel essentials, and a beautiful pool and courtyard area in back. My suite was so much bigger than I expected for the price, and there was ample parking available for trucks and RVs in the lot next door, making it easy for me to get in and out without a hassle. It was a welcome surprise on a very long trip. I will definitely stay there if I’m ever in Kalamazoo again.
