My white socks were soooo dirty after walking on the room carpet for an hour. The room smelled musty. I went to the front desk to ask what they could do and they gave me some room spray to use. Went to the front desk on day 3 asking for room service. No one ever came. When I told the front desk the next day they handed me towels.

Such a disappointment and not worth what I paid.

Apart from one worker, the staff were rude and lazy. The breakfast dining room and outdoor patio were an abomination- dirty tables inside, the water jug constantly empty, zombie-like crew could not have shown less interest in their job. Outside the patio needs resurfacing as the cheap plastic tables all waddle and are unstable.

Needs better dusting and vacuuming, noticable layers of dust. The mirror looked wiped but not cleaned, was streaky. Theres no mattress protectors under the sheets. I discovered this when I found a pin beginning to poke through the sheets where my face had just been. The patio furniture has been replaced since our last stay and that was nice, however, the mattresses weren't very soft anymore and a bit lumpy in spots. The AC was mediocre for a weekend with heat warnings and temps in the 90s. The building itself felt like it could use more air flow and my rooms AC unit was on 63 and still didnt feel like it was "too cold". Check in staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Really nice shower facilities. The views are just as great as we remember but we did miss the live weekend music outside. Conveniently located but a bit overpriced for how outdated it's become.

Awesome location, clean beds, friendly, BUT…

Beds were comfortable and rooms were clean, but the hotel was a little more dated than I expected. Breakfast was pretty standard. They have s’mores supplies every night, which was fun, but the baskets/napkins where they kept the supplies (the ingredients) looked dirty and looked like the napkins hadn’t been changed for days.

Great balcony view but....

We were looking for a room with a balcony/view of Lake Superior and got it. Small but had nice polywood chairs with small attached table between. Spent a good amount of time there reading, watching ships & boats on the lake, and watching people on the Lake Walk below. However, the rooms are very outdated and worn. The sofa had a slash across the back and was frayed everywhere. One mattress was definitely old and uncomfortable. The elevator made very loud bands and vibrations as it kicked in (there are 3 floors). The staff were friendly and good people.
