Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Traverse City, MI

8/10 Good

"First, i thought the property was difficult to find..it is not well marked and it is surrounded by other bldgs. The staff are beyond helpful & the checkin was flawless. The rooms are ample in size, and have good amenitites but the bathroom is dated. My only big complaint are the beds. Hard as rocks. I had a bad sleep. Breakfast was wonderful..they had everything. I would not likely return because of the beds.. if the beds were replaced i would absolutely return!"

8/10 Good

"Great location. We enjoyed the tour of the asylum grounds and the proximity to shops and restaurants. The loft was very cool but beware if you are tall. The stairs to the loft are steep but manageable. We enjoyed our stay."

10/10 Excellent

"The instruction notebook in the unit and instructions given by owner upon arrival had some significant differences. Would be helpful to have the notebook updated. Would have appreciated some kind of window covering in bedrooms to darken room during early morning sunlight.Otherwise was an extremely clean, comfortable and unique property. We enjoyed our stay."
