Not sure I'd stay here again.

Daily room refresh was requested on check in. During my 6 day stay it happened once. Others days I had to walk to the lobby to get clean towels and toilet paper. In addition, I asked on 3 occasions to be placed in a lake view room. This did not happen. The hallways throughout the room levels were dirty. The room ventilation was full of "mold??" Lots of spider webs in all windows throughout the hotel. On a brighter note, the bar and restaurant were nice.

Only one elevator which was out of commission for part of a day although it was repaired. Had to borrow a swiffer from front desk to remove all of the spider webs. Had to kill numerous spiders. A/C unit condensate drained onto the balcony instead of being directed to a drain. Mattress was uncomfortable. Numerous stains and streaks on seemingly recently painted walls and ceiling (probably from others killing spiders.) Great location, great views, courteous staff. Great price. But could be so much nicer (maybe if it was privately owned?)

They had just finished some upgrades, some still in progress. Decent hotel, nice view, beach access was nice. Centrally located to everything we were doing that weekend. Did find a used cup behind the chair that wasn't cleaned.

Decent hotel on the shores of Lake Michigan

Some issues with cleanliness of our rooms at check in. Fake eyelashes stuck to the lamp, visible dirt on the floors, etc. Requested rooms to be cleaned and they were while we went to dinner. Overall stay was average. Hotel is older but location was nice. Short 1 min walk to the beach.
