Spark By Hilton Walker Grand Rapids North

10/10 Excellent
"I travel a lot for school, and this was by far the best hotel I’ve stayed in. My room was very clean with new appliances. Very friendly staff that coached me, a San Diegan that’s never driven in the snow, on how to drive in the mess of a snowstorm they had hit. "
