We've stayed at this same hotel on occasion over the years as we visitied the Michigan lake beaches. It has been nicely remodeled. It is a fine place to use as a home base for visiting a Dunes beach

The hotel was under construction during our stay, it was very loud with the workers installing and fixing whatever they were doing, the room itself was nice but there was a very strong odor of chemicals on the entire 3rd floor. I am not sure if it was paint, or something else that was used during the construction. Our room door did not close on its own we had to push it shut from inside the room, and pull it shut if we were leaving.

Convenient to the National Park

The room was very clean and had recently been renovated. Everything looked great including the bathroom until you used it. The bathtub was weird. The sides of the tub curved in so that the base was about 8 inches wide and just enough to put two feet together on the flat base. I felt that this was very dangerous for moving around the tub for a shower. Maybe it would be perfect if you took a bath. I’d be interested if others felt the same. Also, the sink faucet was too close to the side. The faucet should have been extended further into the beautiful sink. Otherwise the rest of the room was very comfortable. We were on the third floor. Breakfast was great! Convenient to Indiana Dunes NP.

The hotel is fairly nice but it’s being renovated so it smells bad and there is construction going on which is never nice to be in the middle of. The manager was very nice and accommodating and obviously tired of the construction taking so long. There are lots of boxes and debris out in the front that is unsightly and the hotel has a strong smell of chemicals right now. I assume it’s from the construction

If I knew there was construction going on, I would have not booked. I’m not sure if the room I was given was finished being renovated but there was only one mirror in the bathroom and there were no hangers or place to hang clothing. The smell of paint was very strong. I also didn’t appreciate the staff using foul language speaking about a guests room.

Hampton inn was our emergency option after a disastrous experience elsewhere. They attended us with kindness, the place is very clean and although it is under renovation, it looks and is preserved very well. Our room was very spacious, clean, and absolutely comfortable. We would choose this place again every time 🙌

Under Renovations

Hotel is undergoing renovations. Exposed wires, construction, and other issues makes me believe that they should not be operating until the renovations are further along.

On our way West

We got a third floor room. The elevator was not working. Thank you for the exercise. The ice machines on the ground floor and 3rd floor didn’t work. So more exercise to the 2nd floor for ice. No shampoo in the bottle But the bed was comfy
