The bathroom had mold in the shower and ceiling and the sheets were strongly perfumed which caused a problem with my allergies. The fridge was full of water and the key card worked maybe evwry other attempt. We were awoken by a crew resurfacing the parking lot at 8am outside our window with no notice prior to booking.

Just so-so
It was not so good. Room was adequate. Difficulty getting heat to work. Stairs up to room were not the safest. Clock on wall didn't work. Clock in bedroom went out every time you used the light switch to turn on/off light. Hotel facing wrong direction. No view of Lake Superior. Very disappointed in that. Coffee in a.m. was good but you need to have a breakfast service. Harbor Table except Bloody Mary was nice. Bloody Mary was awful. Walk along jetty was nice.

Very nice motel, comfy bed & nice shower. Restaurant next door although we didn’t eat there. Roads are torn up all around town so a bit of a hassle but would definitely stay there again. Staff were very nice and friendly!
