The Inn at Mary Free Bed
Loved ones are essential to your recovery and are encouraged to stay close by. Our private patient rooms come equipped with a comfortable sleeper sofa so a family member can stay with you. If you’re from out of town or when an in-room stay isn’t feasible, your admissions coordinator or care manager can help you decide what works best for your family.
The Inn at Mary Free Bed is an affordable and comfortable option for family members of inpatients to consider. Conveniently located in the Mary Ives Hunting Center on the corner of Lafayette Avenue and Wealthy Street, it’s also great for patients who aren’t staying in the hospital or outpatients returning for appointments.

We have a limited number of rooms, so reservations are given on a priority basis to:
- Patients who live more than 40 miles away and are involved in an ongoing program with multiple days of treatment, receive a one-day specialty evaluation or have routine follow-up clinic appointments.
- Outpatients residing more than 40 miles away and are scheduled for early morning or late evening evaluations or treatment, or those being seen for high-frequency therapies.
- Families of inpatients residing more than 40 miles away receiving family education or pediatric families unable to use the Ronald McDonald House of Western Michigan.
- Families of inpatients or outpatients residing more than 80 miles away who are here for services other than family education.
- Pediatric families without other housing resources.
- Mary Free Bed conference speakers or job applicants.
