Hotel was fine. Older hotel but kept up, nice pool. But they gave us a room that had a locked door that led to our room and 2 others. We go back to tell them this and they acted like it wasn’t possible. So the desk lady comes out to check and sure enough it’s locked. She says she’ll get the key and be right back. She doesn’t come back but some teenager comes and checks the door and then says she’ll get the key, which she eventually does. Did you think we were lying? Just grab the key and unlock the door. We sat there with our bags waiting far too long just for you to grab a key and unlock the door.

Great room, great location
Old-school family vacation motel, complete with pool in the courtyard, with some modern updating done to the rooms. My room was clean and comfortable, and refreshed every day. I didn't like the tiny shower, and I'm not a fan of PTAC units, but overall I was satisfied with my room. Great location, just far enough away from the thick tourist traffic that clogs downtown on weekends.

My family and I have been going to Ludington for a very long time. We have almost every time stayed here, even with the ownership change this place doesn’t fail to be enjoyable and relaxing. Nice pool and hot tub. Awesome gazebo. The only quarrel we have is the gazebo being the smoking area. Overall great choice, usually more affordable than other stays.

The Viking Arms was a pleasant surprise. It appears to have been recently renovated and everything was clean and well maintained. Nice landscaping, complete with gazebo. Fresh, clean room with comfortable beds. Equipped with refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker. Being able to park in front of the room was a treat. Breakfast was very basic and was designed to "dash and dine." Carry out items (yogurt, fruit, granola bars, coffee) were available; no seating. The front office was never attended and the owners were nowhere to be seen. The room was so nice and clean that I would definitely stay here again.

Mold in bathroom. Floor in bathroom dirty. Whole room was damp, musty. AC unit/fan did not run continuous. Breakfast was coffee, bananas which are fine and there was toast plus muffins. Sunny D and yogurt, too. So, in other words it was ok.
