GrandStay Residential Suites La Crosse

Great price (95) for a very nice stay. Clean, comfortable, great pillows. Breakfast was the typical diy waffles, yogurts, sausage/potatoes/eggs. (I'd love to see fruits other than apples/oranges sometime) But really, my only complaint would be that the pool was tiny. I was hoping for some exercise after driving all day, but it was very tight.

Our family had a wonderful stay over the recent holidays and we will definitely be back again. Our kids and grandchild had so much fun in the pool and being so close to Rotary Lights was an absolute favorite! No long waits or parking. We also all noticed how friendly and helpful all the staff were during our weekend visit. From the front desk,the breakfast staff to housekeeping - all so friendly and helpful. The holiday decor and fireplace were so welcoming!

We picked this hotel because it had a playground, hot tub, two separate sleeping areas and a kitchenette with full sized fridge/freezer/cooking supplies - perfect amenities for our weekend in La Crosse. Check-in was a breeze and the front desk attendant Michael was great! He was attentive and helped out with extra blankets and trying to track down a frying pan. We get up to the room and it smells musty and moldy. We opened the windows and put the a/c as low as it could go. After a few hours the smell goes away. The room itself had the usual marks of wear and tear - stains on all the things, a sagging bed, rust on the utensils and pans, tiles broken in the kitchen area and bathroom, peeling paint and mold in the bathroom. The shower worked well and the tub held water - so that's a plus! The only pan in the kitchenette was a small sauce pan and there were no cooking utensils, only tableware. Okay - I go down to the front desk and see if they have an extra frying pan so I can cook the meal I just bought all the ingredients for. They didn't, but recommended a local store that may have frying pans. I was able to make due with cooking each item separately so it kinda worked. Breakfast was meh. The usual waffles, but the waffle iron was so dirty that the waffles stuck to it, even with the spray. The biscuits and gravy were decent. The potato hash was unappetizing. There was no milk or yogurt on Monday because "the weekend wiped us out!". Eventually they found a gallon of milk and some yogurt. The coffee was yellow, not brown so I'm guessing they only put a few tablespoons of coffee for the whole carafe. Aside from the waffle maker, the breakfast area was very clean, so that's a plus! The hot tub was the perfect temp and the pool wasn't too bad either. The exercise room had the usual treadmill and stationary bike, but no weights. My 6 year old wanted to play on the playground pictured on the website and Air BnB. We looked around the grounds and couldn't find it. Asked Michael and he said he never knew there was a playground. I pulled up the website and he mentioned making sure it was updated to remove the photos and description of said playground. Hotel is in need of refreshed furniture, new carpets, stocked kitchen, and an update on the website. Was it worth what we paid for it? Yes, but I wouldn't spend more than the $130/night we found it for until repairs/refreshes are done.
