Overall, stay was nice, but the late checkin at the kiosk left a lot to be desired. Waited 20-30 minutes to get keys to then enter the hotel.

Eh
Having to check in through a computer monitor with a person over zoom was odd. Our tv did not work but there was no one on the premises to call. The beds were very comfortable and the place was clean.
Woodspring Suites East Lansing was clean and appeared to be well managed. The only item that caused a pain point for me was the lack of coffee in the lobby and no coffee machine in the room, and there is no McDonald's nearby to get coffee at, so I got coffee at the Mobil gas station on the other side of the highway. I recommend adding a self serve coffee machine to the lobby area. Thank you for requesting feedback.
Brand new property, so obviously in great condition. Arrived late so I was remotely checked in for my 3 night stay. Never saw a sole in 3 days. No service to our room, ie towels or garbage, shampoos, no coffee. No extras at all. Made a point to go to the lobby to check out. Ran into the maid service, she did not speak in return. The actual desk clerk was blunt and short. Lobby is virtually nonexistent. Would I stay again, probably not. There are many other options, just thought I would give the new place a try.

No dishes in kitchenette??
They have kictenettes and there is no dishes included. It says nothing about being an extended stay hotel but it is i guess so bring your own dishes.
Hotel is very clean as well as my room , staff was excellent and very helpful especially housekeeping ( Natalie ) .
I didn’t care much for the stove top in my room being digital it kept shutting off when I tried using both at the same time and I also didn’t care for the laundry facilities having to use my credit card or Apple Pay!
The room was described as a "suite" with refrigerator, microwave and stove but absolutely nothing to use (e.g., dishes, glasses, cups, pans, etc.) There was no coffee maker in the room so we requested one. Did receive a few filters but no coffee. There was no hair dryer in the room and had to request one. There was no tissues in the room. The temperature in the room could not be adjusted by thermostat unless unit was completely turned off. There are times when no one is at the registration desk. Need to call a number and speak to someone on the phone if help is needed. The best thing about the hotel was its cleanliness.

No one to check us in. Came in with our hands full at 10:00 pm to have to juggle everything and check in through a kiosk. Room was loud. Everything was made for someone short or in a wheelchair which made it loud with the hard flours and beds so low they were hard to get out of. Only 2 pillows on the bed. Blood on the shower curtain. No Kleenex. No shampoo or conditioner. No coffee or any type of breakfast/food. The entire time there we never saw an employee.
Couldn't even check in, the property itself was disgusting

Smelly, dirty and loud. Check in at kiosks was terrible. Attendant was virtual. She was nice but overworked. Was answering other customers phone calls during check in. Run as fast as you can.
Kiosk Fail Just The Beginning Of A Sleepless Night
We arrived around 10:50 p.m. and the kiosk to check in is between two sets of doors and wasn't working. We called the phone number on the wall and they said they would "send someone down to assist us." Meanwhile, someone came to visit a friend who was staying at the hotel. They came down to let him in and they let us into the double doors to at least sit in the lobby cause it was freezing. We started eating our late-night dinner to kill time until someone arrived and when my friend went to toss the garbage, she noticed the screen on the kiosk was back online so we tapped the screen and finally talked to someone and we were able to check in. This was a 20 minute process to finally get keys in hand. We were in Room 317 and while the room was clean, the beds were the loudest beds I've ever heard in my life, like loud plastic twisting every time I turned over. But I didn't get a wink of sleep because the neighbors above us were stomping up and down the hallway all night long. Then there was arguing and even more stomping, it was so loud it seemed like it was outside our own door. And someone's car alarm kept going off and they didn't know how to shut it off. I get that you can't control the behavior of other guests but when there's no front desk to contact for physical assistance there was nothing we could do but suffer through it. There was no one to speak to on the way out either because the desk doesn't open til 9 a.m. If this is the future of hotel stays, yikes.
