So much potential

The hotel beds were very comfortable which I’m generally pretty picky about same with the pillows. The halls and rooms are fairly dated. The halls are very dimly lit. We weren’t there for staying in the room though so it was fine. We ate one night at the pub downstairs. The food was good, the pub itself was very warm though. Our poor waitress looked like she was dying of heat. Escanaba has so much potential. You can see that at one time it was a very busy city. We went downtown on a Saturday and there were no coffee shops open to sit and relax at. The two ladies at the candy shop (this is probably wrong spelling but Saywells?). It’s a must stop, the candy is delicious and the two ladies working were so friendly. The street downtown was under construction while we were there which I’m sure put a damper on businesses. I live in a tourist town and I wish we had the opportunity that this downtown has for revitalizing.

Good value hotel for a short stay. Everyone was nice and the property was clean. Limited to no seating for the breakfast area. Small enough to take to your room easily. Pool area was clean and nice. Restaurant on site was good and convenient .

Cute place

The hotel is beautiful. Staff was excellent. Can tell they try to keep up on the rooms..still minor repairs needed. Mattresses were worn out with a deep sinkhole in the middle and very mushy. Restaurant onsite...continental breakfast was average.

A bit disappointed

Extremely disappointed there was no luggage cart. We do not travel light and carts are necessary for our travel. Additionally, breakfast was very minimal compared to other hotels not to mention no where to sit and eat other than the lobby couches. Other than the above the place was nice and clean.
