We drive through the UP every few months and always stay here. Itā€™s always clean, quiet, and feels very safe for solo travelers. And we love that our dog is welcome!

The Hillcrest appears to have been a motor inn long ago, but has been refurbished and refreshed with care and an eye for clean, modernized accommodations for customers. The primary colored chairs on the front walkway are cheery and welcoming as are the staff who are extremely friendly and helpful. Huge hanging baskets of healthy, fresh flowers add to the welcoming ambiance. Check-in was a breeze. The location was convenient to area restaurants and an easy drive to other sites on the UP. The inn is located in front of some woodlands where the owners have thoughtfully cleared a walking path for customers. Although we don't travel with pets, they have pet-friendly rooms and an enclosed area for dogs to play and enjoy fresh air. I would definitely recommend staying here and would do so myself if I am in the area again!

For a motel in this area this place was below average due to the close proximity, 200 feet, to a main highway with a speed limit of 65 mph and used extensively 7/24 by semi traffic. When there are moments of no traffic the train horns, operated by an over enthusiastic operator, will catch your attention. If both of those are absent the hum from the refrigerator will provide you with some white noise. If you are a very sound sleeper, this might be fine.

We thought this property was overpriced considering no breakfast and the rooms are very small and outdated but the staff was very friendly and their is ample space to walk your dog.
