My stay at this hotel was simply wonderful! The rooms were clean, comfortable, and offered a great view of the water. I would highly recommend it for anyone visiting Houghton. The service, however, had a few hiccups, especially in communication, but the location couldn't have been more perfect, close to the university, downtown restaurants, and picturesque Portage Lake. The dining experience, although basic, was decent, and the facilities were adequate for a pleasant stay.

Staying at the hotel was worth the little extra for the good-size rooms with views of Hancock across the river. We even had the delightful surprise of observing an eagle and otters right from our room. However, the service had its hiccups with a lack of acknowledgment of a customer's loyalty and training issues. The location was very clean and well-kept, offering multiple docks to enjoy waterfront views and access to a local seafood restaurant. The dining options were somewhat limited, but adequate for starting the day. Overall, the hotel provided a pleasurable experience with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel is conveniently situated between Houghton and Hancock, offering easy access to the snowmobile trail system and Mount Ripley view. The rooms are elegantly decorated with artwork resembling a higher-tier hotel, but mobility might be an issue due to the time I spent in each room. The dining experience features a decent selection, including the best waffles, although a Dutch touch would enhance it further.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were clean, and the view of the water was stunning. The bed was almost as comfortable as my own at home. Having a fridge and microwave was convenient, but I wished they offered more protein options at breakfast besides just hard-boiled eggs.

The location was nice, within walking distance of downtown Houghton and Hancock. It's by the river with a lovely outdoor terrace overlooking the water. The walking path along the canal is a great addition.

I couldn't ask for a better stay in Houghton! The rooms were very clean and had a great view of the water, making my experience delightful. The artwork in the rooms felt like a touch of luxury, and the bed was nearly as comfortable as being at home. The hotel is a top recommendation for anyone visiting the area.
