10/10 Excellent

"Rooms, pool , lobby and staff were all wonderful. Quiet and relaxing place to stay right on the water. Will come here again!"

Seasons Inn Traverse City

8/10 Good

"Room was good, not great, but worked for a quick motorcycle trip. Staff was ok, short staffed it seemed like as there was only one person that was around, however not really attentive."

Blossom Hotel & Suites Traverse City

8/10 Good

"It was a nice place to stay. Very cleanly. Nice to have a pool and hot tub to take a dip. My least favorite part of Traverse City is the walkability though. Just drive 3 minutes, get in your car, and drive again. You will lose so much time trying to walk around this unwalkable beach town."
