The hotel provides a decent stay with a lot of potential, especially due to its central location and two pools for family fun. However, it falls short on some aspects like check-in confusion and minor maintenance issues in the rooms. While overall cleanliness was noticeable, the structure's age became apparent, which might make some guests feel the experience is not worth the price.

My family and I stayed at this hotel during our visit to Duluth, and while we appreciated the cheerful check-in process and the great view of Lake Superior, the cleanliness of the room left much to be desired. The bathroom was quite cramped, and the toilet issue really overshadowed our stay. Overall, it was an average experience with some notable pros and cons, making it a mixed bag of comfort and inconvenience.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. The location is convenient and made it easy to walk to many attractions. The staff was surprisingly accommodating, which added a nice touch. However, the noise from the elevators was a bit disruptive, and the facilities could use some updates. Overall, it's a decent option if you're in the area but comes with a few drawbacks.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a mix of experiences. The rooms were large and provided ample space for my family, but they didn't seem as clean as I'd hoped. The service was generally helpful, but our placement near families with kids made things a bit noisy. The location allowed for easy access to several attractions, which I appreciated. Dining was decent but could benefit from more breakfast options.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room was large and had useful amenities like a microwave and fridge, which I appreciated.
