Checkin person obviously does not like his job. The rooms were very shabby and not well maintained. So run down and over-priced. Has gone downhill over the years.

Location is great. Short walking distance to all the shops and restaurants in Grand Marais. Lake Superior is about 100 yards from the back of the hotel. Room was clean. Beds comfortable. The bathroom is a bit dated and could use a remodel. But everything worked fine. Price should be about $50 less per day in my opinion, but it looks like all lodging is expensive in Grand Marais these days.

Great Hotel
Great hotel to stay at in Grand Marais! We loved that we could walk to town. Beds are extremely comfortable. Pool, hot tub, and sauna was a real treat after a long hike. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. We especially loved Don, the gentleman who checked us in. He was charming! We would definitely stay there again!

It was an older hotel, but it served its purpose for a 1 night stay. Beds were ok but pillows were flat. Room and hotel was clean. Front desk staff was friendly and polite. Continental breakfast didn't have much to offer so we passed it up. Price was a bit on the high side for the age of the hotel.

Overall a really nice stay, great location it was walkable for all of downtown Grand Marias, they had everything you needed and the pool and sauna area was a great bonus. Decor is a bit dated but there is upgrades where it matters. Staff was friendly and helpful. The only real complaint I had was there was lots of ants in the building, but they were all dead so it seemed to be a known problem that they we handling which is appreciated.

Horrible Check in. Greeted by an older gentleman with a summer hat was complaining behind desk all along, did not even acknowledge us no hello or thank you. I know we all have our bad days but when you have a customer service job the first impression is so important especially at a hotel
