Paid a decent amount to be put in their detached building which was clearly an old motel. Rooms were updated, but the price was too high to not be in the actual hotel and there was no warning for that before purchasing an unrefundable stay. Also the air conditioning barely worked and we had a wasp nest right outside of our door.

Dear Valued Guest, Thank you for your review. It was a sold out weekend with different groups in house. We would of been more than happy to try and move you if we had anything else available. I did have maintenance check for the wasp nest and it is not an active wasp nest but they are going to get a ladder and remove it. With the 101 heat index with such high humidity it was very hard for any a/c to keep up we would of been more than happy to have maintenance come over to look at ptec unit. We do appreciate your feedback and hope that next time you are in our area that you will try us again. Sincerely, Lori Faught

The property had a decent price, location, and amenities. However, our bathroom stank and the pool was gross - there were gnats, and the hot tub foam turned RED... The walls were pretty thin so we could hear neighbors, too. The complimentary breakfast was a definite plus and satisfied our needs. Overall OK.

Good hotel for an overnight stop

Pros: Everything.
Cons: The breakfast space could be a bit larger.
This property works well for a stop on the way from the heart of america to the north woods. The property, staff and facilities are all very good.

keep looking

the hotel lobby reaked of cigarette smoke, the 5 story hotel has 1 small elevator, the wait was long, the air conditioner did not work and the desk staff told us to try to reset it - "they didn't have anyone available to fix it", the room was very small and the bathroom was tiny with a towel rack that fell off the wall, at check out we were charged for another party's room - the staff at the front desk were surly and refused to call the manager
