Everything was really nice. Bed was not too comfortable but for the price it was nice.

Location is good, on a beach and away from midtown bustle.

8/10

I had booked a family suite/room, and they upgraded us to beach side. However, I went back to the desk and ask for the original room, as it had 3 beds to the two in the upgraded room. It was in the older part of the inn. When we opened the door it was defiantly from the past. But if you're traveling with family - book the family suite/ room with the 3 beds. The rooms were separated, so the kids were in their own room and we in ours. There was even a pull-out bed that wasn't listed so if you were traveling with more people, you could still stay very comfortably. The room shared a bathroom in the middle, had a table on each side and the chairs had seen better days for the fabric/ covering. The hot tub was broken, and the pool was open, but it was as cold as the lake water on Lake Huron. They told us at check in we were welcome to use the pool and hot tub next door. But we didn't. Staffing was a little weird as they put a note on the door stating to go next door for service. It was a short walk, but still a little weird.

Rooms are no thrill but are clean and we were happy. Right on the beach and the balcony with a lake view is worth the upgrade. I have no complaints.
