Disliked: Amenities
The water view was great outside the property. The hotel itself was built perpendicular to the lake so no nice view from room. Property was dated but clean. We stayed here because the rates in Bayfield to visit Apostle Islands were very high.

Property was located next to the marina and lake Superior. That was nice. Old property tho, no elevator for luggage to 2nd floor room. Restaurant next door had good food but was a little expensive

Our stay was very mediocre. Room was clean, but could use some repairs. No breakfast or even a vending machine that we could find. Nice view of the lake from outside, but the property oddly faces sideways to lake, so no rooms have an actual view. Could hear every step the people above us took. Very pricey for no frills.
