It’s a nice looking place and it’s good to be right on the beach. BUT, the walls are very thin and you can hear every voice and every noise on the entire floor. When the shower in the next room was being used it sounded like it was in my own room it was so loud. Also, the bed was very uncomfortable. My neck and shoulders are killing me after two nights sleeping in that bed. The view and the beach is nice, and it’s clean, but it’s nowhere near worth the more than $400 per night I paid. I don’t recommend staying there and I would never stay there again.

My husband and I stayed here for our 1 year wedding anniversary and loved it! The hotel was clean, staff was friendly and they had a great selection for breakfast. Right down the street from downtown so it was very convenient to go shopping for the day, get some dinner and then the hotel was super close at the end of the night!

Great location and view. Great staff.

This hotel is right on the water. Get a room with view if you can. The hotel is comfortable and clean. The coffee options in the room's coffee machine are not great, but you can get good coffee from the lobby at any hour. Breakfast is decent, though more fruit and oatmeal would be great. Best part though is the staff, all were very nice and helpful. I arrived at midnight and although their shuttle service closes at 10, they were nice enough to pick me up. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely spot to enjoy the bay!

The property if clean and well kept, but looks very "dated." The room was great with a beautiful view of the water (and sunset). The staff were friendly, and the breakfast was really quite nice (not with omelets, sausage, etc.).

The location cannot be beat, the shore of Lake Michigan is magical. The staff are very friendly and accommodate requests almost immediately. The facility is older but kept up extremely well. Has a great pool and jacuzzi area, the game room and gym are a bonus. Good food every morning and fresh coffee available always. I will be back, this was my 2nd visit.

We really appreciated the friendly staff! They accommodated our early check-in and late check-out and they were attentive at breakfast. Our room was on the lower level with a spa tub and we did not have privacy we expected with people walking on the beach. This wasn’t too bad since we visited on the off season and there was a privacy curtain available. Aside from that, we were very happy and will likely come back.
