Staff was nice. It was a super cute property. I really liked that it was lit up a lot at night. I also liked that they had a few dishes in the kitchen. The deadbolt on our door stopped working properly. Luckily we had another door we could go in and out of before we were able to fix it enough to get the door open. Called the front desk and were told they would get to it eventually so we were unable to use it while we were there.

Cute place!

We were there for just a short stop, mostly to sleep. Super cute place, definitely stands out from the road. The only "complaint" from my child was about the cool bathroom floor in the morning - welcome to Wisconsin winters, my child. :)

Staff very friendly. I grew up in Sturgeon Bay and this Motel was always an after thought. Very run down. Recent renovations have made this place cute, clean, and must stay when visiting my family.

We booked Motel 57 for a last minute weekend getaway. Upon checking in, the front desk lady was not very friendly. The process of checking in was quick and easy. When we entered our non-smoking room, it immediately smelled like cigarettes. The carpet was terribly dirty. It turned our white socks black. Thank goodness I packed a foam playmat for our daughter or else she would not have been able to play. The floors were sticky and the bathroom had black mold growing on the ceiling. The TV was so dark you couldn't watch it and the remote was sticky and gross. The rooms need an obvious deep clean, but it was in a good location being close to everything. We would not stay there again.

This is a "Vintage" Motel. The motel is exactly as I remember from days past. What a wonderful stay. Not just like every other motel we stay at these days. A breath of fresh air.

We enjoyed our stay at this cozy little vintage motel. The room was quiet and the little kitchenette had what we needed. We brought our own pillows after reading reviews, and the beds were a bit loud but we still slept well.

This motel is in Sturgeon Bay, the entrance of Door County. It's not far from the other sites, i.e. Fish Creek. You can tell that this place was updated recently. The price is very reasonable, and the staff was friendly. It’s an economical place to stay if you are traveling on a budget.
