Clean room. Close parking. Keep in mind this is an old building so it does have an antique feel but does not bring it down. Right in downtown. Easy to walk around town for food or just to see the area. Easy walk to the mouth of the river and to see lake Michigan. Good sights. Staff was excellent. Kind, curtious, and very helpful.

Love local mom and pop owners and this small boutique hotel is not only owned by a new owners but one can make out that they care about their guests and staff. The patio dining was delightful and delicious. A short walk from the lighthouse and sunset beach made it an ideal location!
