Delamar Traverse City

10/10 Excellent
"The very heated outdoor pool was fantastic! Our room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable. We noticed our room was missing a robe, so we let the front desk know and another one was delivered. Very attentive staff. It's a short walk to downtown. As it was a bit chilly, we didn't walk on the beach, but did notice that the dock is in a great state of disrepair - not what's pictured. Hopefully that will be remedied in the future. We'll definitely plan to stay there again in the future. "
