The property was easy to find and had more than enough parking. From the beginning of my trip, through my last day, the staff was amazing! They were so nice, personable, attentive and they even wished me a happy birthday! The property was very well kept, the linen was fresh and they provide breakfast. Next time I’m in the area, I will be staying here again.

We stayed one night for a trip to the Silver Lake sand dunes and Lake Michigan. The young lady who checked us in was very polite and helpful with the area as far as how to get to the local dining and our destination. Room was clean. I would consider the facility itself as average, although I would not have a problem with booking the room in the future.

We booked this place for a 1 night stay as we were passing through. The front desk was so kind and helpful. Room was decent and older. The walls are super thin!! Thank goodness for the AC unit and the fan to help drown out the noise. The breakfast was a continental breakfast and hot coffee. We opted to go next door to Charlies Family Grill for a full breakfast. We needed protein. There is plenty of parking for trailers etc. Good location too.
