This is an extremely overpriced hotel. It was the worst bed I think I've ever slept in and the pillows were the same. The heat didn't work so someone had to be called in, that took about an hour. We were right next to the lobby and there's a sensored light that lit up our entire room and went off and on all night. The curtains didn't offer any protection. I mentioned it to the girl behind the desk but I could tell she could care less. If I had paid $100, I would shrug it off, but for $200, I expect MUCH more.

Location, location, location!
The decor of the rooms is reminiscent of the early 70's, but they are clean and comfortable. Check-in was fast and the staff very friendly. The location is incredible. You can sit on a lawn chair less than 100' from your door and rest your feet on the seawall and gaze across Munising Bay. At night the stars are incredible! The next time I stay in Munising, this one will be at the top of my list!

The room was dirty. Dusty behind every place that would be difficult to clean. Carry out salt, pepper and mayo packages were found in a bedside table drawer. We couldn't get hot water in the bathroom sink. The bathroom was primitive, at best. 1 foot between the tub and the wall. Very inconvenient. Not welcoming at all.

Not as advertised
It was not anything as advertised: Breakfast only a danish, room outdated, Bathroom small and had bugs, very precarious walk to get to the room, service was not open until 8AM, very small TV, Dust and not clean. Some items were acceptable, but would have been better to stay next door at the Comfort Inn. It was a nice location, but it needs to be torn down and replaced with a new motel.

We were comfortable enough for the two nights we stayed, however extra effort with the cobwebs in the corners and mold in bathrooms would make it much more enjoyable.

Annual Fall Color Trip
This is the second time I have used one of the house rental properties at the hotel. The location is excellent, right on the bay with stunning views. It is also close to many of the stunning Pictured Rock landmarks. There is plenty of room to park two cars. If needed, someone could use the street. There is a cute back porch that has a table and chairs. They also have a grill if you were so inclined. All of the bedrooms are upstairs. The beds were fine and we were able to sleep really well. The open floorplan was community friendly for chatting and games. The bathroom is good sized, even though the fan didn't work. There are a few little things that people should know before their stay. The dryer absolutely does not work. lololol. We washed towels and had to dry them literally 4 times at 119 min. The stairs are super loud, creaky. It is almost hilarious how loud they are--back in the day, definitely no kid was sneaking in and up without someone going on alert. It was super toasty upstairs. So much so we opened the stairs window a crack. Also, the kitchen isn't the best power wise. As a woman that works for an electrical contractor, this problem happens all of the time--too much power to one breaker. Just be careful. The crockpot and the toaster couldn't be run at the same time when the stove was on. I enjoy staying in this quiet little neighborhood--even in a quirky house.
