Old and outdated. Only the minimum amount of upkeep. Had cable, yet the bare minimum of the channels were enabled. A/C worked but if you change a setting it would stop.
Convinately located to Fishing Harbors for Kenosha or Winthrop. Quite clean plenty of food options close by. I wish they could have coffee in the rooms or lobby. Great place for long wknd
I like that the owner was on the property. This is an older motel. But it was very very clean. We always check the rooms. It was nice to have a slider door with a patio outside. I plan to stay at this motel again. Clean and affordable.
We walked into the hotel, which felt like an "rent by the hour" hotel. Hotel smelled. Walked into room and flipped on the main light switch by the door, didn't work. Had to hunt for another light. Sheets were stained on one of the beds. Room had a "mildew" smell and the humidity was horrible. TV remote did not work. The TV was stuck on ROKU and could not get the cable box to work. The blankets on the bed are basically tissue paper.
We were in the room for about 30 and just decided to leave. It was already late and I did not feel like confronting the staff there.
Tell you what....STAY AWAY! RUN! Stay somewhere else! HOTELS.COM should take this hotel off their platform.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Everything was fine but barely having hot water was ridiculous.
Unfortunately, my stay was marred by some cleanliness issues. I noticed mold in the room and the air conditioning didn't seem to be fresh. The overall condition of the room wasn't up to par. Given these issues, I wouldn't recommend this hotel to others."
Pretty sure the deadbolt did not engage all the way as it would only go partway over. The glass sliding doors had the old style lock on it and no safety bars so it did not feel secure. There was food in the refrigerator left. The sheets were stained really bad. The bar I’m in the shower was missing. There was a hole in the bathroom door.
