This was a super cute, clean and comfortable stay. There isn’t much in Gwinn but at the same time it has everything you need. A few good restaurants, a Kwik Trip, and both a Family Dollar/Dollar Tree and a Dollar General if you are searching for anything for your trip. It is only 20 minutes from Marquette and saved us a hundred(s) in lodging. Nice cute little touches including popcorn and fresh fruit in the lobby. It was extremely quiet. Kelli was extremely welcoming and has worked hard to make this a lovely place to rest your head. Highly recommend!

Extremely friendly staff! Beautiful little hotel! Very nice continental breakfast set up! Extremely clean room with awesome red, white, blue touch! I was stationed at the nearby base 30 years ago and loved the added touch original U.S. Air Force pictures, in their original frames, that the hotel acquired from the heritage society. The next time I travel to this location, I will stay here again. TY for an excellent stay!

I was skeptical about stay here, but this was honestly the cleanest hotel I have ever stayed in. The woman at the front desk was kind and friendly. The room was immaculate. We use the local airport about once a year and needed to stay close by for the early flight. We would definitely stay here again if we need to be nearby. There was a firepit burning outside when we arrived. It is cute! The hotel has a very patriotic theme.
