It has everything you needed. And the staff was always asking if you needed anything else for your room. They were very attentive and courteous. Will do that again as soon as I go up north. 

It was close to everything and the five In lakes including torch lake. Only 15 min away.

This is a much older unattractive low budget motel and apparently has several full-time residents. Was booked only because nearby Traverse City was nearly sold out. The rate was high for such an outdated site, but low in comparison to Traverse City. The bed was clean and comfortable as was the room itself but everything about it was outmoded. The carpet definitely needs replaced as do the room doors which were flimsy and hollow Lauan-style doors. Theres only so much that can be done with such an aging building. Renovations to fully modernize the motel wouldn’t be cost-effective since it’s unlikely that this out of the way spot could ever recoup the money spent on them. The night was spent uneventfully and no one bothered us or our vehicles.

The room was very cozy and they had the air on so it was very comfortable from the moment we walked in

Water didn't get very hot in the shower, and the stairs to go to second floor was very stuffy
