The only issue we had was not being able to check in until later in the afternoon. Apparently, they were understaffed that day. The TV and viewing was hard to figure out. Not sure we ever did. The breakfast was not really a desirable breakfast. Get some healthy cereal, etc not loaded with sugar.

Loved this place!

We loved staying here. The staff are all helpful and friendly. Even if the decor is outdated as some reviews mention, the rooms and property are immaculate! We’ve never stayed anywhere that every square inch of the room and bathroom were this clean. This hotel is in a great location, within walking distance to downtown Grand Marais. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you!!

Had the best sleep in months!

We had the best sleep we have had in months! We chose the king room with hot tub in the room. They even had bath salts next to the tub! The room was dated (I was worried about the other reviews I read). But the bed, cleanliness and quietness outweighed everything. Isn't that what you want? Oh, the price was $100 less than any other hotel in the area (in August).

The pool and hot tub were nice. But they didn’t have any clean pool towels. We had to turn on the sauna and wait awhile for it to get hot. Our toilet would keep running until we jiggled the handle enough for it to stop. The beds were very hard. It’s a decent hotel and we’ve been staying here for years since I grew up in Grand Marais. It just needs to be updated.

We only stayed one night in Grand Maris. The room was clean, but dated. It served its purpose. Grand Maris is an entranceway to a lot of nature, hunting, fishing, etc. The town itself is okay.

Disappointed in the overall condition of this hotel. Rugs were dirty in our room, bed mattress was like 20 years old. Our room window was broken with bugs flying inside it. breakfast was nonexistent. Muffins and cold pancakes are not acceptable. Needed hot food. Eggs/sausage etc. not really a fun experience for our time up there.
