Very neglected, needs major renovations. The mattress was thin and lumpy, the bedding almost see-through. The bathtub had chips out of it and the walls needed re-plastering. My husband and I walked into the room, looked around and checked back out. We drove back to Duluth and stayed in the Comfort Inn West which is a far superior motel. More

Check in was ok, when we were walking to our room there was an odor in the hallway.In the room there was only one light switch, the wallpaper was bubbling and pealing, toilet stained, out dated furniture, when you turned the Jacuzzi on the lights got really low,so we didn't use.

Room: We stayed in a second floor double queen bed room facing the pool. First off, even though the room is facing the pool, there is a hallway with glass windows that separates the room from the pool area - this DRASTICALLY cuts down on the noise level. Even with 3 hockey teams sharing the hotel, noise was minmal (from... More

My wife and I were on our way from Minnesota to Michigan and got caught in a huge snow storm. We stayed here thinking that we would find outstanding accommodations, based on the price, we were not really impressed. The rooms were, at the best, average. There was only limited internet connections. The restaurant closed at nine and that is... More

Not that spectacular of a place, but the location is good, it was clean, and the staff was friendly. I was there in the off season, so maybe it would have been better some other time. The area around the pool does smell old and muggy, luckily my room was not near the pool, so once inside the room it... More

I stayed at this hotel because a wedding I was attending was doing their reception here and everyone was staying at the hotel so I figured I'd rent a room. They advertise every room has a lake view - if they mean a sliver of water they dock boats in is lake superior - then my room held true. I... More

We had a lovely view of the marina from our quiet, comfortable room. The room decor is dated, although they are upgrading. The included breakfasts were excellent. It is a short drive across the bridge to the touristy Canal District of Duluth. More

Dragonboat festival weekend, close to the festival and all that it had to offer. Perfect for that as we walked to all the events and activities. It's an old hotel that offers a decent place to sleep. If you are looking for the Hyatt Regency, then this is not the place for you. If you are looking for a place... More
