Pros:

This was pretty clean but there was no body wash, shampoo or conditioner in the containers in the shower-super disappointing. Also-only 1 bar of soap is not considerate either. There is no on site parking either. Have to find it on the street or pay a nearby ramp.

Pros:

The sheets had big stain on them unfortunately I just took a picture of one stain before I went to bed and when I woke up in the morning with better lighting I then realized that the whole sheet had stains all over! Also no parking and no breakfast (not even complimentary coffee) was available so we had to park outside which was a block away and we paid $10. Overall really overpriced for what is offers! Super disappointed!

Pros:

Everything was great once we figured out where the hotel was. Obviously, we had the address, but there was limited exterior signage and no loading/unloading zone or parking area. We ended up circling the block before realizing where the main entrance was. Other than that, the hotel room itself was great for our 2 night stay in Duluth. Would stay again no concerns.

Pros:

hotel was great - rooms are large and clean! Parking was a problem - they offered paid parking but it was a half block away from the hotel and I felt unsafe at night parking the car and walking to the hotel - We were chased one night by someone!!

Pros:

Nice, polite staff. Very clean and quiet. They would benefit from having a big hotel sign on the Michigan side so drivers can see clearly from the street or on the facade of the building above the front entrance. Wish the car parking situation was clearly described online. Parking is available across the street or a few blocks away in the convention center, but it’s not free of charge for hotel guests. In the other words, the hotel does not have a parking garage; there is parking near by and it’s not free.

Clean room, helpful staff. Parking was really the only drawback because the elevator at the civic ramp was not working and the stairway doors were locked.

Nice hotel
Pros:

The hotel is new so very clean and had all the items you would need. The room was spacious and quiet. Parking is a couple blocks away but it worked out. It is a drive to canal park but walking to restaurants and bars.
