Typical rural hotel, suitable and friendly.

The hotel was good. Typical of a budget friendly hotel in a rural area. The staff was friendly. The walls were thin and the people staying there were all there for winter sports, so there was quite a bit of noise from clopping boots, but the hotel was very accommodating to those who were there for snowmobiling and fat biking. I have been to a lot of hotels for bike trips, and always do, but this was the first time I have ever been asked by staff to take my bike to my room because they know how expensive it is and they don’t want anything to happen to it on the property, which felt very welcoming. Breakfast was very basic, coffee and carbs; cereal, toast, muffins, etc. There was a pool and hot tub which looked nice, but I didn’t bring a suit, so I didn’t partake. I would stay here again because of how welcoming it was and the proximity to the RAMBA trails.

Very cold air was coming through the opening around the ac unit in the wall. The pool has seen its days and the "new" sauna was very week maybe 70° after and hour of running. The beds were hard as a rock.

This is a dated property but is well maintained and was a nice find for a good price. Room was clean and front desk staff were friendly. Breakfast was good for the price paid and level of this property. They had make your own waffles, yogurt, bagels, etc. I will return next time I am in Houghton/Hancock.

No sauna, big gap between our door and the floor

Hotel advertised having a sauna. They do not have a functional one so I booked the room under false information.
