Good hotel for a great price point and very conveniently located to Grand Marais and trails around Lake Superior. The room was a bit dated and in need of minor repair in some areas but clean and well kept. Staff were friendly and helpful. The room definitely got the job done for a long weekend stay in Grand Marais, especially since we spent most of our trip exploring the parks and trails around the area. Would recommend if you’re looking for budget-friendly way to explore the North Shore.

Very simple space, you get what you pay for. I was happy to have a clean bed and a roof over my head for $60 a night. You can't get anything for double the price around here so in that sense it's a 5/5 in my opinion.

Unseasonably chilly during our Memorial weekend visit and our room did not have heat. Front desk attendant, one of the friendliest we've ever encountered, moved us to a new room which had heat. Very kind of her. Will definitely stay here again.
