Carped dirty. The property needs some care. Shows it age. When we arrived I was told the elevator was out of order. I had called and asked about elevators for the room we were reserving as my wife recently had knee surgery. After expressing the problem they did get us a room on ground floor and took &12 off the premium room we had reserved.

Charlevoix charm!

The Weathervane is a charming hotel in a perfect location. It's just a few steps over the drawbridge into downtown Charlevoix. There you'll find shops and restaurants, as well as the beautiful city marina and an outdoor Amphitheater. We loved the layout of our unit which included a queen bedroom, a family room with full kitchen, wood burning fireplace, and a deck with a view of Lake Michigan. Our stay also included a continental breakfast in the dining room adjacent to the hotel lobby that had a nice view of the city center. Of course most importantly, the bed was very comfortable and the water pressure in the shower was excellent. Highly recommend!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room was awful. The carpet stains were disgusting. The shower literally flooded the bathroom floor. The light in the room all night was much too bright. The privacy from the room next door was miserable. The neighbors came in after midnight- super loud. Startled me) thought they were in my room. The gap between the doors separating our rooms is ridiculous. I see the light/movement and of course all their noise. I did not enjoy hearing their private moments. In the morning, the only cups were plastic cups- nothing for coffee. We went to the breakfast room. The tables and chairs were filthy- food crumbs on all of them. The staff person watched me clean. The food selection offered nothing, but chemical filled carbohydrates, no healthy options. Perfect location, but overall, very dirty, uncomfortable experience.

This place was convenient to many restaurants, shops and the marina was close by. Our room was a Lake Michigan suite but it had an obstructed view of the lake due to the tall trees, but still good as it had all the conveniences needed for staying there being that it had a mini kitchen. The bed was comfortable and bathroom was a decent size and clean. One thing about the AC units, there was a motor that kept coming on and off due to apparently the humidity that builds up outside and has to drain and the motor runs consistently. That could be very annoying for the people who would be sleeping in the living room sofa bed. I guess that’s normal when I spoke to the desk about it. There was a continental breakfast offered and convenient to grab something in a hurry. There is a hot tub on the third floor of one of the buildings that really does not get advertised, very quiet and nobody in there. It also had a pool which we spent an afternoon by, but the water was not heated even though the brochure says it is. It’s overall a pretty area and short walk to the lighthouse and beach. It also has many restaurants nearby in a short distance to walk to. Many different shops to walk to and the marina nearby with an amphitheater with entertainment going on. Also, we ate at the weathervane next to the property and the food was delicious and had a great view.

The parking lot was being hot tarred the days we were there, it was dirty, noisy, & smelly. We were given a room #38 on the 2nd floor, climbing up a steep metal stairway with luggage was difficult. The room was dated, had a 80’s look, carpet was stained. It was a run down dated room. When retiring for the evening I pulled the curtains closed, the curtain rod dis-assembled & into 4 pieces. We couldn’t get it back together after trying numerous times. So at 10:30 my husband went down to the office to ask for help. We were given another room, downstairs on the other side, so we had to pack up our things down the crappy stairs to a room with 2 double beds. I went to the office asking for a king bed that we reserved & paid for & the man on duty said to me as he rolled his eyes, “you paid for a standard room”. I told him the original room was a dump & he said he had no more king bed rooms. Being the parking lot was mostly empty I couldn’t understand it. I will not stay there again. The whole complex needs major renovations.
