Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
No carpet in room, not even a mat for wet shoes. 2 towels for 6 people. No towels in pool area unless asked. Staff overworked and too busy to be nice. Bathroom had bad lighting and the shower had terrible pressure. Cheap fixes to broken floor in shower (felt unsafe) and sink smelled bad and didn't drain. No extra garbage bags. Asked for blankets for pull out couch and was told they didn’t have any. So kids had to sleep with only a sheet. Breakfast was decent and the beds were clean though.

Hotel was clean, bed was comfortable but pillows are usually too big. Hotels should have a variety but they don't so, that's why I bring my own.

Our stay at Grandstay did its purpose. Room was clean, but showing its age in places. Also, unfortunately we could smell that someone had previous smoked in the room. Overall we’d grade this property with an average grade.

Very nice staff
Service was great! Everyone working there was friendly and helpful. My only complaint would be the bathroom in our room. The toilet and shower were not clean. There was a ton of dust along the top of the shower and the toilet had a black/brown ring around the top of the bowl

Room was clean and honey. The hotel was conveniently located and well suited. The bed was extremely soft and comfortable. The decor was older but nice. The only downside was there was only 1 roll of tp for the room. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it to others.

Best hotel of the whole trip
I am so happy we found this place! Spotless room. Bed was just the right amount of soft but supportive. Super convenient location. Staff was friendly and attentive. And the best part… we stayed in a suite with a full kitchen for the cost I would have expected to pay for a fleabag hotel. DONT MISS THIS PLACE
