My initial review was apparently too long so here is an abbreviated version:
This hotel is GREAT. My friends and I have stayed at quite a few hotels in the greater Muskegon area over the years (attending Electric Forest in Rothbury), and we all agreed after this weekend that THIS is where we will be staying now in the future. It is independently owned and operated, and you can truly see the difference while staying here. The couple who own it are wonderfully friendly and hospitable, and you can tell that they pour all of their energy into their business. Our room was very clean. Everything was in working order. The room's air conditioner worked GREAT (something that can be iffy at other area hotels). There was free coffee available in the lobby, as well as various snacks and drinks available for purchase. They even have free air to fill your tires while you stay. Any time we needed ANYTHING, their response was immediate.
Previously, we would always stay at various corporatized chain hotels and would have very mediocre (or worse) experiences. We took a chance on this little hotel in Hart, MI and seriously could not have been happier with our experience. We kept talking about it all weekend and then again as we left... This place has a very warm atmosphere and was a genuine pleasure to call home for the weekend.
So if you're planning a trip and currently reading my review, here is my advice: skip the corporately-owned hotels in the area and go with American Host Inn!
