Family vaca for Pictured Rocks

Came for 2 night stay. Was pleased with the motel. The place was clean, cute and perfect location to go see all of Pictured Rocks. My family and I had a perfectly relaxing time and really enjoyed the sunset.

Beautiful sunset view

We had a nice , quick overnight stay at the Sunset Hotel which is situated facing a beautiful bay off Lake Superior. The check in staff was very friendly and helpful, the room was clean and had two rooms each with a queen bed. The bathroom is small but adequate. There is a beautiful sunset view from each room or the front of the property. One suggestion would be a few more electrical outlets or ubs outlets near the beds.

8/10 Very good

Motel is a little dated but clean and comfortable. The biggest win for this property was that every room had access to a back balcony with amazing lake views. In addition, there is a large well manicured back lawn with a variety of lawn furniture to lounge in. We took advantage of this a couple of nights to enjoy spectacular sunsets.
Shelley, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Not great.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. The view was nice and there's plenty of chairs by the breakwater to sit and watch the sunset. Mattress was comfortable but the pillows were flat and pretty terrible. The room had an old range and a small fridge and sink. The bathroom was clean-ish but the whole room was outdated, run down and gross. The pans and utensils were pretty disgusting as well. I guess I expected more from a room that was $300+ per night. Wouldn't stay here again.

Overpriced, street side rental; wouldn’t recommend

We booked the vacation home and it appeared online we would have a bay view, along with breakfast included. This was not the case. We had a house that was up the road from the actual motel, sandwiched between another home that was falling apart. There’s no pics of this house on the website and for the price we paid, I expected it to be a little nicer. The front desk was okay, but didn’t give much details - they provided better service to those staying at the actual motel. The floors of the home were slanted, it was pretty musty, and the upstairs master bedroom had a damaged closet with the tv ripped out of it just sitting on the floor. The cleanliness of bedding was questionable and we found mouse droppings in the silverware drawer. Definitely not what we expected when we booked. If you’re looking for a budget single home and don’t mind paying a little more for a lot less, this is for you. The cheaper comfort inn next door will probably be our choice next time so we have a better level of cleanliness.

Extremely Disappointing Stay – Not as Advertised

We booked a room specifically with a lake view, but upon arrival, we were given a completely different house down the street — no view in sight. When we entered, the cleaning crew was still there, and the bathroom reeked of urine. There was visible urine around the base of the toilet, which was completely unacceptable. The sliding doors in the kitchen had no blinds or curtains, leaving us with no privacy from the neighboring hotel. All the bedrooms were upstairs, but with only one vent in the hallway, the rooms were unbearably hot at night. Only one room had a ceiling fan — and it didn’t even work. When I called room service, I was told to crack a window for air. Seriously? The kitchen floor had a raised lip that caused multiple trips and near-falls — clearly a safety hazard. And the “continental breakfast” was laughable: just coffee, packaged juice, pre-wrapped pastries, and yogurt. Needless to say, this was one of the most disappointing stays we’ve ever had. Definitely not worth the money and not at all what was promised.
