Great price for this area. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Small property but right on the lake and a very nice restaurant across the parking lot. No free breakfast but most hotel breakfasts are not that good and they recommended we try a nearby restaurant which I think was called Time Out. It was very good and priced right.

This place was clean. It was old and seemed run down. No good, not bad, but I probably would not stay there again.

The location is excellent with a walking path by the lake. The staff were all friendly. The carpet in our room appeared to be dirty and probably is where the odd smell was coming from.

The hotel is pretty outdated but the service was good with friendly staff. Right on Lake Superior with a restaurant in the parking lot. It is also walking distance to downtown with other dining options available. We arrived early and they let us get into our room since it was ready. That was much appreciated. Staff always had a smile on their faces and were willing to answer any questions we had about the local areas.

The Washburn Inn had very reasonable rates for this time of year. The room we stayed in was clean. The staff were all very friendly and accommodating. It has very nice views of the bay and Marina. Very nice restaurant/supper club right next door. They have shown signs of updating rooms. It's a process, that they will complete in time. People need to be less critical. The ++ out weigh the -- When we return to that area I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again!

We needed a last minute room for the Bayfield/Washburn area, and I’m so thankful we ended up at the Washburn Inn! The room was well kept and clean, the shower water pressure and temperature was great, but the best part was the front desk staff. I had asked about a few local features and businesses and while he was immediately knowledgeable about them and told me about local walking trails, he then called our room later to let us know about a suggestion he just heard from another customer that was useful for us too! That personal touch was great.
