Ramada Grayling Hotel and Conference Center

It's ok, pool not in service.

The room was clean and comfortable and an appropriate stop for our purposes. The breakfast was very well received!

I reserved online and although the room was prepaid, the registration process still took 15 minutes. The clerk was uncertain of the whole process and needed assistance the entire time. When asked if she was new she replied that she'd been there 4 months. Yikes. The room itself was clean and the bed was comfortable. Since my room was on the first level, it had both an inside hall entrance, and an exterior door entrance directly in to the room. It was nice to be able to park directly outside the room door and have only a few steps to the bed. The room had both a fridge as well as a microwave which are great if you want to bring your own food. Before entering the breakfast area on my first morning, I was called to by an employee in the pool area who literally ran to come take my meal ticket. There were only 4 people in the entire dining room. Really?? Are you that afraid of someone trying to get in on a free breakfast, especially considering the disappointing array of food I was offered? Although the food tasted fine, the assortment was sad. No juice was provided, you needed to ask for it. Both mornings featured only sausage links (no bacon), scrambled eggs, the wettest oatmeal I've ever encountered, and only on my first morning was I treated to the thinnest sausage gravy and biscuits on earth. This along with a hotel manager (or owner), who glared at me if I went back for a second cup of milk, or an extra pat of butter. Next time I'll stay in Traverse City.

Got there the room that i reserved had someone else in it and was not what was asked for did not offer any thing for there mess up and in the breakfast buffet was empty and the staff for the kitchen was just complaining about how busy it was did not have any thing for the handicapped to get to the up starers

It was an average hotel with a beautiful and large pool and hot tub. The staff was very friendly. I would definitely stay there again.

We really enjoyed the pool area. There's a separate pool for really little kids with a bigger pool and separate hot tub for adults. The dome area has a ping pong table my family enjoyed. There were also pool tables and an arcade we saw but didn't use. The restaurant really should add a second waffle maker and move the toasters. There was a long wait in the morning. The restaurant and bar was closed Sunday night. Our room bathroom needed updating. Chipped and crack in the sink and something funky by the toilet. It was great location. We came back and stayed a second night.

the overall experience here was good. the hotel is old and needs some updates, but at the rate we paid we weren't expecting the Ritz. The hotel was easy to find right off the freeway. the staff was friendly, especially the front desk lady named Jackie. the breakfast wasn't great, just cereal, muffins and the ability to make your own waffles, but again for the rate we paid it was better than nothing. the best part of the hotel was the pool and family area. we would probably stay here again just for that reason and reserve a pool side room. if you're traveling with kids this is a great place to stop.

The hotel itself is very clean and moderately comfortable. I know several of the rooms had recently been remodeled, and in speaking with other hotel guests around the pool we must have gotten one of the remodeled rooms. Our room was very nice, however when we arrived at 2 to check in the grumpy woman who appeared to be a manager due to her business dress attire instead of a hotel polo gruffly stated NO EARLY CHECK INS. You have to wait until 4. So, we found something to do to waste time for 2 hours after driving all day only to come back at 4, get checked in and walk into the hotel room they gave us.....which was still occupied by a previous guest. NICE!! I went back up to the front desk where they were more concerned about grumbling about the fact that guest was still in their room than apologizing and worrying about the fact I had just walked into someone else's hotel room. Went to hotel room #2 where there was a huge wet spot between the 2 queen beds. I was very tired and frustrated at this point. I didn't want to change rooms AGAIN, called the front desk to let them know about it where they didn't apologize or seem concerned, just asked if we wanted yet another room to go to. No, I just threw pool towels down over it, cranked on the air conditioning and flopped on the bed. A half hour later our room still hadn't cooled off. The air didn't work, but intermittently. Are you kidding me!! I didn't even bother to call the front desk.
