Great location, old motel rooms

Old motel style rooms. Price is reasonable for Grand Marais. Plumbing and AC were good. Bedding was old but still reasonably comfortable.

I was not aware we would be in a room with NO air condition! Also the walls are so thin you can hear every word spoken in the rooms next to you, which means they can hear you as well. There are quite a few hotels/motels in the Spruceglen Inn listing. When a person gets the confirm email for their stay, It would be VERY helpful if the physical address to the place they are staying was linked to google maps.

Good Economical Motel

Keep in mind that you are in Grand Marais, not Manhattan nor downtown Chicago. Grand Marais has motels or lodging. This one has what you should expect from a motel: a clean bathroom, access to hot tub and pool, grab and go breakfast and walking distance to restaurants and bars. It's the lowest priced motel in town; take advantage of their amenities to get your money's worth.

If you are looking for luxury this isn’t your place. Nice clean room with ceiling fan. No a/c. Small room. The Aspen Lodge is next door, motel patrons may use the pool and spa. Motel is in the town so is walkable to the Lake, restaurants and shopping. Motel is on Hwy 61 so easy access to the Sawtooth Mountains and hiking destinations.

There were gross stains on the mattress, the sheets, and the comforter. I asked for clean sheets and even that was stained. I asked if they washed the comforter between guests and they said only twice a week because “most people don’t sleep on the comforter.” The room smelled really bad and there was no air conditioning. The room was hot and humid.

Two night stay just right

Small room with king bed. TV and fridge, no coffee or microwave in room. Those were available in main lobby which was fine for the price. We just needed a place to sleep and base out of, this fit the bill. Loved being 2 blocks from downtown. Would stay again 👍

This was very insulting!

The room was awful! No air conditioning! A “BOX” tv! Spots and stains on the roof, walls, ground, and bed! Holes in the sheets! A giant spider “ON THE BED” not even ten minutes of us entering the room. We sprayed bug spray around the bed frame. This was beyond disgusting. Never will we return here!

quiet little spot

Quiet little spot within walking distance of Restaurants and shops in the center of town. 10/10 Would recommend if you just need an affordable place to sleep. Not usually my cup of tea having a door directly to the outside, but when I brought up my concern to the front desk, the property manager was there within seconds to add 3” screws to the strike plate on the door, giving us much needed peace of mind. The staff were friendly and courteous. There were several amenities at the hotel right next door available to us. Pool/hot tub/sauna , WiFi, coffee/breakfast etc.
