The check-in and check-out process was quick and easy, with friendly and understanding staff. The bed in the room was tidy and comfortable. The hotel is conveniently located, with easy access to nearby attractions and amenities.

The bathroom was in need of a deep cleaning, with mold and worn caulking. The front door had worn weather stripping.

We loved that we could park right outside our door and that the room was spacious, clean, and the mattress was very comfortable. As bike riders, we appreciated the convenient location near downtown. The outdoor pool was clean and well-maintained, providing a private and pretty setting. We were also pleased to find that there were not many rooms available due to the ongoing cherry festival, making our stay more peaceful. The staff was very friendly and seemed genuinely interested in feedback to improve their service in the future.

Felt very welcome, no complaint.

I have been staying at this hotel for many years now and it never disappoints. The rooms are always clean, spacious, and well-equipped. I love the retro decor, it adds a unique touch to the stay. Additionally, the location is convenient, not too far from downtown Traverse City.

The breakfast offering could be improved, especially considering the price point.

The breakfast provided me with a delightful array of options, including a generous selection of coffee, tea, and juice. It felt like I was on a luxurious private yacht, with a spread fit for a sea captain!

Front desk service could be improved.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The room was clean and comfortable, with a king bed that we didn't want to leave. The shower had great pressure too. They had delicious cinnamon rolls, high quality protein bars, yogurt, and juice. The staff was kind and the check-in process was smooth. The location was perfect, as we were ready to go the next day and explore the vibrant downtown area.

There was nothing we didn't like.

Our stay at this hotel was a pleasant surprise. Despite being a bit far from downtown, the location was still convenient without the usual traffic and noise. The front desk staff provided amazing service and made us feel welcome from the start. The room itself was impressively clean and the beds were very comfortable. We couldn't have asked for more in terms of the friendly staff, basic amenities, and the value for money. The complimentary breakfast in the lobby, though a bit light, was enough to get us going in the morning. a great experience.

All our expectations were met, nothing to complain about.

My friends and I had a blast in Traverse City, hitting up Pirate's Cove Adventure Golf and shredding the slopes at the nearby ski area. We even planned our escapades using the free Wi-Fi. Plus, the hotel's proximity to Great Lakes Children's Museum and Centre Ice Arena made it super convenient for us to have a great time.

We would've appreciated more nightlife options nearby for a better party scene.

Convenient location, clean property, and friendly staff. Limited amenities but comfortable rooms.

Great value for the price. The hotel is conveniently located near downtown and the bay, making it easy to explore the city. The rooms are spacious, clean, and generally adequate for a comfortable stay. The staff was friendly and accommodating, providing excellent service throughout our stay.

The rooms could use some updating as they seemed a bit outdated. The shower heads were not cleaned well and sprayed water all over the place.

The location was perfect, close to everything we wanted to see. We especially enjoyed the wineries on Mission Peninsula and the city beach nearby. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable.

The lack of privacy in the room was a major issue. The sink was located in the bedroom instead of the bathroom, which made it difficult to use when someone else was in the room.

The room was spacious and clean, with a nice Jacuzzi tub. The location was convenient and the staff were friendly. Breakfast was great! I'll recommend this hotel for future stays.

This hotel offers great value for money, with reasonable prices and attention to detail. It is conveniently located just up the road from a beach and quite near to the airport. The staff provides excellent service and the basic amenities in the rooms, including a jet tub and a roll-in shower, are perfect for the value. The hotel is also located very close to downtown, making it convenient for personal supplies. Plus, breakfast is included, although it is worth noting that there is no protein option available.

All was satisfactory, nothing to complain about.

Cozy room with awesome mattress and soft, fluffy pillows. Clean pool area. Continental breakfast available. Friendly staff.

Felt quite safe, nothing too much trouble.

Staying here feels like home. The first time, the staff helped with my heavy baggage. It has everything I need: Wi-Fi, 24-hour reception, fitness center, and breakfast. I'm coming back for Christmas. Great place!

I stayed at Howard Johnson for a couple of nights for leisure. The location was perfect, right by downtown. The room was clean and comfortable. I appreciated the bag breakfast they provided, which included a selection of muffins, Danish pastries, protein bars, yogurts. The shower was great, and the swimming pool, although closed due to the season, looked inviting. The greenery around the hotel was a nice touch, and I even spotted some ducks near the water.

Would be happy to recommend this hotel.
