"I had a one night stay here on a quick trip, but I would definitely stay again. The room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. There was a refrigerator with actual top freezer (not like a normal hotel "freezer" inside a tiny refrigerator), a microwave, and a bar style table with stools--all of this would be perfect for a longer stay. There was a small lawn perfect to take my dog out. As a solo woman traveler, I look for properties that are safe and clean, and this one was great."

"This place offers an affordable price compared to other hotels in Traverse City. I chose it mainly to have a place to sleep. I used silicone ear plugs to help with noise since the air conditioning unit and traffic can be loud. It has excellent hot water and a small refrigerator, which I really appreciate. There is plenty of parking. I will stay at this place again."
