    Great location with its own beach area. I wouldn't be put off by the roadworks at the moment, it didn't affect our stay at all. Helpful staff and a 15 minute walk to some good bars and restaurants. The beds were also very comfortable and the room was a little dated but very clean. Great hotel for the price and location. Huge bedroom too.

    Amazing new hotel with great and clean rooms! Entire place was spotless and well set up, and had the feel of a college apartment with all of the amenities in the main lobby! Lounge area, fussball table, and a modern looking fitness center. The hotel was at the base of a hill with tall trees, which made for a great view from the room! Very close to downtown Traverse City as well and cheaper than other hotels in the heart of town. This is one of the very few hotels that exceeded my overall expectations.
