Overrated
The toilet seat was broke, the light switches were not in convenient spot, our window looked at a brick wall and the areas that said wireless charging spots did not work. Think we will still somewhere else next time!!!
Everything in the room was sticky to the point you didn’t want to touch anything at all (light switches, lamps). It was gross. Staff experience was dependent on time of day. Morning and afternoon guys were extremely nice and helpful. Night time was not friendly and a customer had 45 minute exchange with him last night where the hotel record had him in the wrong room than what he checked into. The nighttime worker assumed the man was just drunk but the hotel made the mistake. Witnessed the whole interaction and it took way too long to resolve after midnight. So rating is based on two good workers and one that was TERRIBLE
There’s nothing incredibly special about this hotel. It’s quite basic in every sense of the word, but the location was exactly what we were needing and wanting.
The staff was great, rooms clean, but it seemed odd that there was no microwave, mini fridge, or fan in the bathroom. Also, the lighting situation was kind of weird. In order to turn on the bathroom light, the lights in the bedroom had to be on because they were all on a master switch. Not a concern for a single traveler but not great when one person is sleeping. Otherwise, everything else was excellent and I appreciated the extra security and the proximity to all of the major surrounding venues.
Renovated old town building of Grand Rapids. Nicely decorated room, with a good feel. More to see here than my short visit allowed. It is in downtown, so it's within walking distance of everything if you're ambitious enough to walk.

Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
A very unique property. I very much enjoyed the aesthetic and difference in standard design. The comforter was dirty and as I was brought another one, I was going to open the door for the woman and was electrocuted turning on the light. I literally screamed and panicked and all I got was a chuckle and “here’s your blanket, sorry about that”. It wasn’t until I repeatedly sighs with discomfort as I exchanged blankets did she fully show concern and even then, she just asked if I was okay. Although, there wasn’t much that could’ve been done, I do feel like there should be a high level of concern and a promise to report the incident when your CUSTOMER is electrocuted by your light switch. Will not be returning.
Very limited amenities. Lots of hard surfaces (floors, hallways, etc). Also, bed was overly soft and unsupportive. Granted we have a TempurPedic at home so our bar is higher, however the bed at CityFlats was worse than our cheapest mattress in a box.
It was nice, but our room didn't even have a fridge so anything we bought had to be eaten within a few hours or get thrown away. Some of the towels had some stains on them but otherwise room and bed were clean. It was really close to a lot of good food places.
