We stayed in a deluxe king suite. Roomy and comfortable. Had kitchen, allowing us to cook a meal , kick back and relax while visiting my son from MTU. Seems like a newer hotel, everything about it was top notch. Friendly staff at check in and while getting morning coffee. Would stay there again.

Everything was great. Very clean and new. Only thing to improve would be comfort of pull out bed, mattress was pretty uncomfortable, and wrong size bar chairs.

Stayed here for just one night and it was great. Our room was right off the entrance and it was still very quiet. Room was spotless. Bed was firm yet very comfortable. We used the iron and it was much better than mine at home. Both employees I came into contact with at the desk were very kind and helpful. I highly recommend staying here.

Very nice hotel. We certainly stay at this property again when we are in Houghton. One minor complaint.... The cable tv for the hotel does not offer PBS or CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Company) like other hotels/ B&B in the area. PBS and CBC are the only TV that we watch. We were able to watch PBS on our computers.
