Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
There was a gas fire place in our room. It was clear that there was a leak. We alerted the staff, the matter was not dealt with in a timely and appropriate way. As the problem reoccurred, a new trip to the reception and again the seriousness of the gas leak was ignored. It took a lot of conversation for the staff to recognize that they had to give us a new room or I would make a call to the authorities. Compensation four our lost time (basically 1 day ) was not awarded. I don’t think we will risk our lives and stay at this establishment in the future. The empty restaurant which had “demanded” a reservation, could not accommodate a simple request of “something pasta based” for my marathoner running husband on the weekend the Grandmas Marathon was held. Nor did they have any kind of transport or suggestion of transport to the start point of the marathon. Overall a costly stay at a place that has seen better days (think late 80ies 90 Ives). Do not recommend, totally overpriced, with staff challenges)

Superior Shores presents a good front but once you're there, we found they have failed to maintain their property. The employees were friendly.

Disappointed 😞
Was less than satisfied. Room was okay, no daily cleaning, no fresh towels. Have to request fresh towels, coffee, and toiletries. Restaurant is very pricey, no lounge or bar. No place to sit and enjoy a beverage with lake views. Hot tub under repair, sitting area busy with guests checking in and out. Will not go back.

Overpriced for what we got. The whirlpool was subpar, jets didn’t work very well. Water pressure in the shower was terrible. And either the window or the ac was leaking and made the floor soggy, gross. Just wasn’t as good as I was planning for, definitely was not worth what we paid. I would have been happier at a hotel. Won’t be back!

Walked off the elevator to no carpet on a concrete non finished floor. No laundry, that ass out of order. No vending machines in the who building, a ice machine that was full of water, no ice! Room was nice, but booked for three people and was supplied with two towels and 2 wash cloths, had to wait over a half hour for more. Accused of not using the hotels key cards, when we returned them in the morning after using them for an entire evening.
