The room was comfortable, except for the fact that the air unit dripped water down the mirror & maintenance said that was normal. Also, the patio area needs to be cleaned and/or swept from all the bugs on the rail.

Its ok

Honestly we stay in TC a lot! We have family in the area and a child that attends the college near by. So we have stayed at most the area hotels. This hotel isn't terrible. The location is great! But the rooms are defiantly outdated especially compared to most the other ones in the area. The floor layout of the building is by far the most confusing I've ever seen! The room however was a good size. But it did cost way more then we normally spend so I don't find this hotel worth the cost.

My only go-to choice in traverse city

This was easily the BEST resort in Traverse City. It has the largest beach area, spacious rooms, and super comfortable bedding items. Honestly it's rare to find bed that matches home standards. Also plenty of beach chairs.

Beautiful view, nice beach area. Motel is in desperate need of a facelift. For what we paid for 1 night, I would expect a much nicer condition condo.

The hotel is older and could use some updates. But it was clean. Was concerned being right on a main drag, but was surprisingly quiet in our room. There is a barrier between the rooms and the road. View from patio was awesome. Got pics of a beautiful sunrise right out our door. Lots of baby ducks to make us smile as well.
