Great Location in the heart of downtown. Our sweet had a view of the river. Friendly staff. I needed to FEDEX a package to the location and they had it ready for me when I arrived.

Not very well done.

The rooms were clean and looked nice. The beds were comfortable. The walls are so thin we could hear every word the neighbors said, we could clearly hear people talking in the hall, we were right across from an entrance and got to listen to the outside door slam. There was hardly any water pressure. We went down to breakfast between 8:30 and 9:00 and there was no coffee, no hard boiled eggs and no hot food for more than 15 minutes. The breakfast attendant was working her but off. It was move-in days at MTU, they had to know that and should have been better prepared. If at all possible I probably won't stay here again.

Mattresses were worn out. Ask for extra pillows, all they could give me is another blanket. Scrambled eggs looked green.

Location is excellent. Breakfast wad good, more selection than expected for a continental breakfast. Building is old and shows wear. Some rooms are accessible only by creaky stairs.

This hotel looks nice on the outside and in the lobby, but the actual rooms hallways and pool area needs some serious updating. Other than that everything was fine.

Centrally located in downtown Houghton. Lots of steps. Older facility in decent repair. Parking was an issue first night having to park in the city "overflow" & walk to the hotel. Room was clean. Had a great view of the canal and lift bridge (room 501). Across the street from the Ambassador Restaurant! Amy & staff were great!

Pool was cold, but hot tub was amazing. Kids didn’t mind the pool temp with the warm hot tub. Breakfast attendant was wonderful and variety of options was great. Queen bed was worn and hubby and I rolled together. Area was amazing. Would have loved it if not for the bed.

Great location right downtown, our room had an amazing view of the pool. The hotel is quirky, but clean and the beds were comfy. Parking is a bit of a nightmare especially when they are booked, but we made it work. Will definitely stay here again!

The hotel is actually a motel that they enclosed the hallways and made an attempt to update it. The upgrades are hit and miss. The roof leaked into our room (and other places), and yes, the staff knew about it. The windows look into a sad, enclosed hallway that all of the AC units blow into (very hot). The location is great, but the property needs a lot of work; maybe start over! This is all about supply and demand - very limited supply and they demand a high price for what in most towns would be shut down because of poor conditions (not sure what building codes are enforced here - very questionable in my opinion). I would never stay there if other options were available.

The location of the hotel is excellent. The carpeting in the rooms is worn and definitely needs replacing. The bathroom also needs updating and the shower curtain smelled sour.

Last choice for miles around.

Only room available due to graduation at college. Rate extraordinarily inflated. Building floor uneven. Loud echoing children running on stairs. One ice machine right outside our room. Only large enough for one person to move about room at a time. Bathroom tiny. Mold along baseboard. Opened a dresser drawer and shocked at something growing inside. Nearly fell or tripped several times. Unsafe for elderly or disabled individuals.
