We called prior to the football game asking if it was ok for a late check-in, for the game didn’t start until 7pm. We were assured it would be fine, that there would be staff at the front desk 24/7. Upon arrival, we were told that the shift, prior to the current, gave our 2 queen beds to someone else, switching us to 2 twin beds. We paid upfront for 4 adults. They apologized and said they thought we only had 2 adults and the prior shift reported that they were balanced. Assuming, everyone has a bed for the hotel. The staff on hand did manage to find us a room 10 minutes away and paid for it, but it completely ruined our plans and we were extremely disappointed.

Great property & front desk, housekeeping staff. Valet parking a bit complicated, not well explained by attendant or front desk staff. Valet attendants not friendly, in their room on their phones, never offered to carry bag or open the door. They are a bad first & last impression of a pretty cool property!

MSU downtown hotel

Was here for four nights while meeting colleagues at MSU. The graduate is conveniently located to walk around campus and dine around "downtown" East Lansing. Breakfast (not included) was good. Parking was valet only. Very nice rooms, and friendly, efficient staff.

No room even with reservation

We reserved a room and had a confirmation. We revised the stay removing 1 day and they cancelled the entire reservation. Suggested we stay at The Marriott nearby which was double the rate. Had to send my employee via uber to another hotel almost 2 miles away in the middle of the night.

No, I want room was not ready at 4 o’clock when we tried to check in. We ended up leaving the area and going to the meetings with scheduled. It was very inconvenient because they called an hour later that the room was ready and we had already left the parking garage and paid for our stay there. We ended up having to go back to the graduate Hotel, pay again at the parking garage, we were never offered anything for our inconvenience.

Holiday hours were a bummer but love the Graduate

We decided to treat ourselves to a stay over the July 4th weekend near our famliy in Lansing... I was really drawn by the location and amenities of the hotel. Unfortunately the in hotel coffee shop was closed on Saturday, July 4th, as well as the rooftop where we were hoping to relax after the day with family. I totally understand giving Team Members a break over the holiday with the local coffee shops, yet with the hotel industry being open daily, was hoping they'd offer more over this holiday weekend. Still do love the concept and design of the Graduate Hotels in general.
