The bathroom sink was plugged and very slow draining. Other than that it was very clean and comfortable.

Older roadside motel that was converted and updated to a nicer facility. Although the price was steep ($260) for just an overnight lodging, and the bathroom was very small, the shower was hot and strong with a seat. The room was spacious for a double, the beds were very comfortable, and the cosmetic features have all been updated, but it’s still old.

I come to Grand Rapids every week for work and this is the only place I’ll stay! It has become my home away from home. They have the best food in town, an excellent wine selection, and wonderful crafted cocktails. The staff is also top notch. They get to know their regulars and truly care about their guests.

Great hotel

It's not often you can find such a nice big hotel room while traveling with a large family. I was a bit nervous when I booked because it was so cheap but this hotel is wonderful! It was clean and spacious and had beds for everyone. We would stay again!

A nice surprise

The crepes were amazing at breakfast- make sure you use your $10 breakfast vouchers. The staff is great. The yurt was fun to hangout in and play cards. A nice modern / hipster place to stay in northern MN.
