This motel was nice and clean.. Check-in and check out were seamless. It is false advertising for the breakfast and the Egyptian cotton bedding lol..but I wasn't expecting much. The "breakfast" is Little Debbie snack ckes but the coffee is delicious. I would definitely stay here again.

We were not happy with our accommodations. I'm pretty sure we booked two beds, it may have been about $111, which we paid. The place seemed mostly for working people who stayed all week. The first room they gave us had one queen bed, the room was very stuffy and smelled of smoke and there was no sign of air conditioning. Then they found a room on the first floor with one king bed that had a much lower odor and AC, so we stayed. There was no box of tissues, no waste baskets. Should have been $60 max. I would not recommend it to anyone. Can we get some kind of credit?

This place was reminiscent of the movie "Psycho". We did not feel at all safe nor were the rooms clean. Carpets were stained, bed linens were thrown haphazardly on the beds, sink and tub looked like they hadn't been cleaned from the last occupant (soap residue on the sink and counter). One in our party slept in her travel clothes and no one unpacked anything. No coffee, no attendant in the office in the morning... we left ASAP.

This property was possibly the worst place I’ve ever stayed at. We sat in our room for 20 minutes and then checked out. The hallway to our room smelled of fire. There were piles of linens in the hall. We checked in after 11:00pm. There were a lot of flies in the room. It was dusty. The rooms are very out dated. We payed $130 for one night. Check in including the wait time to get someone to the front office was over 30 minutes. Someone came up to us when we walked out to go to our room and asked if we’d been helped. It’s after midnight now and someone approaches us in the middle of the parking lot. Definitely made us feel unsafe. When we left and let the front desk person know in the parking lot we were leaving he asked why and tried to deny the conditions of the room. My finacee did her best to kindly explain to this man the situation. The place needs to shut down, torn down and they can start over. Trying to polish this turd won’t cut it. Stay in Traverse City or sleep in your car.

Sasquatch Shaving Party

Pictures are deceiving they are about 30 years behind. Place is run down and unclean. Checked into room uneaten food left in a styrofoam container on top of microwave. Pubic hair left all over bathroom counter and in sink. Looked like they had a sasquatch shaving party. Food remenants in the sink strainer. Hair on every towel pulled from the rack. Stained sheets hair in the bed also. Booked this through hotels.com with no refund otherwise I would have left and found another place to stay. Slept on top of blankets.
