There is so much history here. Rooms were updated, spacious and clean. Some street construction going on, so be creative when you get close. We walked around outside in the evening, down to the marina, skate park and park. Lots of people around of all types, but felt safe. Good lemonade and ice cream. We paid more for the harbor view, and it was worth it. Loved the sunrise over the sleeping giant.

We checked in and police were in the parking lot , not a good first impression. Constant noise from the parking lot, police again, train going by in wee hrs of morning, old blg needs update. The waterfront is beautiful BUT the hotel and people in the area made us feel uncomfortable and unsafe on what was our first vacation together. Would not recommend this hotel.

Had to be shown three different rooms before settling on one because the rooms were so dirty and had a very musty smell. Mostly the bedskirts on the beds were filthy. I understand the hotel is old, but it definitely needs to be shut down for a few weeks and have a good cleaning overhaul.

Curtains did not close properly. Need clothes pins to keep them closed. Window A/C was real noisy. Had to shut it off. Breakfast was fabulous.Service was great. Bed had only one bedside table.. Made it awkward for my wife, who had to use ironing board as a place to put her cleanex, etc. I triped on it during the night. No safety bars in shower. Toiletries were good.

This is an older hotel full of history and nostalgia and a reminder of how the hotels used to be rather than the cookie cutters we often see today. All of the staff, including those working in the restaurant, were excellent. We had a fantastic view of the waterfront. Of particular note was how the front desk had read our request for accessibility needs and went out of their way to ensure that our needs were met

The room was clean, spacious and bed comfortable. The hotel itself could use some updates as it is an older hotel. It seemed some new updates are happening. The location at the waterfront was nice despite the road construction. As in any city or town homelessness is a problem. This area is no exception.

Staff were very helpful and friendly. Beautiful view of Lake Superior. Not enough sink or counter space in bathroom but I did like the idea that there was a bathtub and shower. Also loved having coffee maker in room and mini fridge was great. I would stay there again as lots of nice restaurants near and a beautiful Marina & Park close by.

There homeless / drug addicts litterly sleeping in the parking lot of on the stairs behind the building. My son did not feel safe. Not to mention the police helicopter that flew over top at midnight. We cut our stay short and ran out of there . You could not pay me to stay there again.
