Cute motel right on the water

The motel is cute, a little dated but clean and fit our needs. The best part is the location right on Munising bay with a view of the town. They have chairs by the water to sit, relax and take in the view.

Great motel. Big coffee pot, friendly employees on site, clean, everything a motel should be…and right on the water.

Great location - but not much else

The location of the motel is amazing. Nice seating area outside looking west to the sunset The room was musty smelling, the sink was cracked, carpet needed cleaning, no mattress pad on the mattress and window air conditioner did not work Breakfast is a strong word for what was served; weak coffee, pre-packaged danishes and little yogurt cups

Family vaca for Pictured Rocks

Came for 2 night stay. Was pleased with the motel. The place was clean, cute and perfect location to go see all of Pictured Rocks. My family and I had a perfectly relaxing time and really enjoyed the sunset.

Pictured Rock Base camp

I travel a lot and although this is not a big name brand hotel I found this little motel 50 feet from Lake superior Shoreline an excellent place for a base camp location to explore pictured rock national Shoreline. We selected the double queen bedroom with the kitchen living area combo. The only downfall which is not the motels fault was the bridge which takes you back into town was being reconstructed thus far the road leading you back to town turned into a 20 minute car ride rather than 1 minute car ride. I would definitely stay at this motel again.

Don’t stay here even if it does have a sunset view

The place is old, run down, uncomfortable bed, minimal toiletries. View was the only good thing. I paid 3 times what the room next door did. Very disappointing at the tune of $261
Carol, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was spacious and clean. Furniture is outdated, but sturdy. The beds were comfortable. The owner is so pleasant and helpful with recommendations. It was a perfect stop for an overnight visit to the area and you can't beat the view!

Beautiful sunset view

We had a nice , quick overnight stay at the Sunset Hotel which is situated facing a beautiful bay off Lake Superior. The check in staff was very friendly and helpful, the room was clean and had two rooms each with a queen bed. The bathroom is small but adequate. There is a beautiful sunset view from each room or the front of the property. One suggestion would be a few more electrical outlets or ubs outlets near the beds.
Sunset from the property

8/10 Very good

Motel is a little dated but clean and comfortable. The biggest win for this property was that every room had access to a back balcony with amazing lake views. In addition, there is a large well manicured back lawn with a variety of lawn furniture to lounge in. We took advantage of this a couple of nights to enjoy spectacular sunsets.
Shelley, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Cleanliness is the most important thing to me and it was definitely very clean. However, the property needs a lot of work and it is seriously outdated. The staff is very friendly and accommodating and I know they try hard to keep everything up

Is this the right hotel?

I'm not a hyper critical person. But I'm surprised that the reviews of this hotel are as positive as they are. We arrived late so perhaps we were assigned the last and worst room. Idk. The bathroom had peeling wall paper, the carpet was damp near the refrigerator, the air conditioner controls were inaccessible, and the furnishings seem to date from the 1970s. I reread the online reviews after our stay and frankly it seems that we were in a different hotel than previous reviewers.
jonathan, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not great.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. The view was nice and there's plenty of chairs by the breakwater to sit and watch the sunset. Mattress was comfortable but the pillows were flat and pretty terrible. The room had an old range and a small fridge and sink. The bathroom was clean-ish but the whole room was outdated, run down and gross. The pans and utensils were pretty disgusting as well. I guess I expected more from a room that was $300+ per night. Wouldn't stay here again.

Vacation travel

The proprietor of this motel was friendly and helpful. The room itself was clean and comfortable, for the most part. The bathroom was good-sized and had everything we needed. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and provided us a good night's sleep. The sofa was saggy, uncomfortable, and badly in need of replacement. We had a kitchen which was fairly decently appointed, though we did not use it for cooking meals. We had a lovely view of the bay and a balcony with decent chairs. What made our stay less comfortable was the stairway to our 2nd floor room. While the steps were sturdy, the stairway was in very bad repair overall, with broken or missing rubber treads and many protruding nails that could easily cause injury. With this stairway in its present condition, we would not recommend the second story of this property for anyone who is elderly and/or has mobility issues. Carrying our belongings up and down this stairway was a treacherous proposition at best. The cost of this room did not reflect its quality. This property warrants updating.
