8/10 Good

Could use some updating but clean and good location , comfortable bed and had an inground pool outside.
theresa, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Four of us stayed in the Family Suite with the 2 bedrooms and we loved it! Very clean and comfortable. The pool was great too - very clean and without the old chlorine stink of a lot of other hotel/motel pools. Close enough to downtown Traverse City to make it easy to get to. Very friendly and attentive staff. We'll definitely stay here again next time we're up this way.
Scott, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The rooms were very nice. The kitchen was fully supplied with dishes, etc. Did not realize that they did not offer breakfast since they have a kitchen in the rooms.
Kim, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Amazing stay for bigger groups :)
Connor, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Great location across from the bay with a public park for beach access, hotel has a pool but limited hours of operation closing at 8. Rooms were good for family of 5 but beds were not comfortable and the floors were filthy. Otherwise a decent place, but we will go elsewhere for our next visit.
Towels used to clean nasty floors.
Twice.

Would stay again

The stay was amazing. I had called earlier in the day to make sure our reservation was good and had told the nice lady on the phone that it was our 10 year wedding anniversary. She went out of her way to make sure there was a cake in our room! Either way I lived it. I got the queen suite and was nice cozy and clean!
