Great location; poor hotel
The location is great if you plan to spend time on I-Drive. The hotel is run down. Lots of broke things in the room (I.e. door handles, furniture, bath hardware, drawers, etc). The floors were very dirty. There is only housekeeping available every third day even if you request it. The elevator doors stuck and the pool area had multiple safety cones up where there were hazards. The gentleman at the front desk was very pleasant and helpful.
