This is an old motel, which has not been updated in any way. There was mold around the tub and shower, the king-size bed had queen-size sheets on it that didn't fit and slipped all over the place, the carpet was filthy, the A/C unit was incredibly old and loud. The "breakfast" consisted of pre-packaged rolls. There was a coffeemaker in the room but there was no coffee filter so we couldn't even make coffee. This entire experience was incredibly disappointing.

The view was exceptional and it was near by activities! Down fall... Beds need to be updated, bathroom needs a remodel, and it just in general needs a deep cleaning! Smelled like mildew. But we sucked it up and stayed for 3 nights! Wouldn't go back unless it gets updated!

We were in a 2 bed room that was so small there was limited access to the bathroom, you could not close the bathroom door because of bed in the room, the bed left about 12 inches of walking space to bathroom, bathroom door also did not close because of improper fit. The “ curtains” were falling off. There was a power strip for the light, tv, refrig, coffee maker, all plugged into one outlet! The day staff was incredibly rude, however the night person who checked us in was great. I would definitely make a better choice and skip this place. @175/ nite I expected more…I am considering a call to the city inspector.

The location of this property was good with a beautiful view of Lake Superior. It was not the best set up for travellers with no instructions for early checkout and the breakfast, which was advertised, did not start until 8 and was basically a muffin and coffee.
