Quaint, quiet motel relatively close to Door County attractions and not far from Lake Michigan. Very friendly and helpful staff. I wish there was breakfast included but for the price, I really enjoyed my stay and the coffee/tea provided in my room.

The fact that no one was available to get more towels, ect. was a bummer. Called the number . It rang for 5 minutes with no answer. Room was clean and cute. Patio was nice. The sheets pulled off the bed quite easily. Missed the human contact.

Thanks for the opportunity to comment. On property we came in late so didn’t walk around to be able to give it a fair score. Room was very tidy. Only a couple of tissues in tissue box and no vent in bathroom. Key entry was sweet and easy. No coffee around and really needed it!!!

This is a straight forward, no frills, old style motel. It was inexpensive relative to other properties in the area. There were comfortable chairs on the covered porch It was crowded, but quiet. The digital checkin was impersonal, but the housekeeper, Kiyanne (sp?) was wonderful, so helpful and thoughtful. If Door County is your destination, Algoma is as pretty, interesting and friendly an entry point as I can imagine. Lovely stay, lovely town.

Nice simple updated classic motel. Enjoyed the outdoor space off our room ... bed was very comfortable. However, it was the weekend and there was a lot of noise from various groups of fellow motel patrons who were also enjoying their outdoor spaces with beverages well into the night which affected our overall experience.

A good hotel with an electronic check in process

I liked this hotel. Unique as I got my key via an electronic box instead of a front desk. Kind of cool. All we wanted was a place to sleep and showers in the morning. This hotel suited our needs.

It was clean, the colors in the unit were pleasant. There was 2 plastic chair's for sitting, nothing comfortable to sit on. The beds were ok, a bit hard. Nice coffee machine. The shower curtain was a dud. It clings to you and I had to keep pushing it away. They had dove soap & shampoo etc which was great. Parking was great, you can park right in front of your unit.
