Is a BNB, not a hotel

Overall this was the singular most disappointing interaction I have had with hotels.com, and the lack of support from both the hotel owner, as well as hotels.com have convinced me to stop using the service as a whole. I'd rather just book through hotel websites from now on. To the meat of it- This ‘hotel’ is not a hotel. It is a BNB. You are literally in a room off of someone’s kitchen or dining room or something similar. Much like a listing on AirBNB, the property will have charges tacked onto your stay for ‘cleaning’ if you do not ‘clean’ to their expectation. The property has a unique ‘check in’ which is ‘break into a strange house in the middle of the night’, because there is no check in process. They claim to send instructions on the website, but there were no instructions sent until reached out for more. Is it a cute house? Sure. But I was trying to book a hotel, not an overnight at a strangers home.

Northside- Charlevoix House

It was a Relaxing/Amazing Trip. A 10 min walk to everything downtown Charlevoix. Room was immaculate, “Great Lakes.” The Property Mgr. Terri was terrific, she always had a beautiful spread for breakfast, and she knows the area well, and always had great suggestions for restaurants, shopping and sight seeing. I have already blocked another week in April, 2025.

I especially enjoyed meeting Terri and her daughter. They made me feel right at home, were more than helpful on local information, and it was fun to stay local in an old historical house. Terri provided a continental breakfast which was appreciated and more than adequate. As a solo traveler, I felt very safe in the area.

Charming and comfortable

Terri was a wonderful host. The breakfast was good and the room was very spacious with a comfortable bed. The stairs are narrow so keep that in mind. If mobility is an issue, check to see if a first floor room is available. There is a window air conditioner in the room. Parking is very close.

The lovely lady and her grandson who maintained the home were very nice, friendly and helpful. It was a bit noisy, but then the property is on a main thoroughfare and our room was at the front of the house. This also made it very convenient to the downtown area. We would stay there again.
