It was a nice clean hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. The mattress was one of the most confortable I have had at a hotel. If you need a place to stay in the Ashland/Washburn/Bayfield area, this is the one I would recommend.

8/10 Very good

Nice views.

The location is great- it's right on the water- restaurants and stores are close. The bed and shower were nice- good pillows too. It's an older hotel, the AC takes awhile to cool off but its not usually hot here so shouldn't be an issue. They gave us a fan when we asked. The customer service was excellent the 3 days we were here. Breakfast isn't included but there is a great coffee shop in town with great breakfast!

Air conditioner was not very cool, seemed to be not working. They had new units in lobby so i think they were in the process of replacing some. Had an odd old smell in room. Overall clean and comfortable.

We liked it. We would have loved to have half-and-half for the coffee. And my knees would have loved an elevator. So obviously, we have no major complaints! The staff there were friendly and helpful. Thank you!
