We booked same day, a little worried because of some of the reviews but the place was clean and that’s my biggest concern. I don’t care if wood is scratched or paint isn’t perfect.

Quiet, clean, and friendly staff= Grand Stay
We’re choose this hotel because we wanted to walk to a brewery. This hotel was excellent. It was very quiet, clean, and the staff was very nice. It was an easy walk to Octopi Brewery, which has great food and drinks.

This hotel has been updated though our room was filthy, dark, and I believe moldy. Our floor was spongy as if it was wet and rotten underneath the vinyl flooring and I was sick within a few hours of being there with respiratory symptoms. The breakfast had very limited options with a waffle maker as the only option for warm food. This definitely doesn’t meet the standard cleanliness or hospitality as most Grand Stay’s have. I would not recommend staying here.

We had exposed wiring in our room that was not properly wire capped. Desk chair cushion looked chewed on. Window screens have large holes and need replacing. I have pictures of all this if needed.

Good but ready for some aesthetic updates
Experience was good and as expected, but the furniture and decor was somewhat random and outdated / clearly repainted haphazardly. Bed was clean and comfortable.

The room has laminate flooring instead of carpet. I love that. It’s clean and you know it’s clean. The bed and bedding are good. It’s a quiet location. The flat screen is large. The water pressure in the shower is good. All the bases are covered here for a clean comfortable stay
