8.4/10 Very Good! (1,469 reviews)
If it wasn’t for the super friendly and helpful front desk person I would definitely have been a bit concerned for my stay. I don’t typically end up at airport hotels (this was due to a flight cancellation) and the area was a bit desolate looking. But my arrival was so easy and welcoming! I wish I had gotten her name but what a great energy that really made me feel comfortable and at ease. The rooms themselves we ok, a bit dated, but provided the amenities I needed for the night.

5/5 - Excellent

Aug 7, 2019If you drive past the Dunes into Beverly Shores you can find more quieter areas to the Lake front. There are some small parking lots in that area (free) but they fill up fast so you have to go early in the morning if it is the Summer time. In the Fall, it is easy to access.
4/5 - Good
