"We paid for the accommodation; the reservation stated that four people could stay there, but upon arrival, the receptionist told us that only two people were allowed per room. In the end, we had to pay an extra $85 a day because the reservation couldn't be cancelled. They completely take advantage of the situation; I will never stay there again. Be careful."

"We’ve stayed here 3 years now and have enjoyed our stay. Nice beach, clean hotel. Like all of the hotels in Traverse City, the prices keep rising. It’s getting harder to stay more than a few days. Great hotel, would definitely recommend."
