This suite is in a great location and a bunch of restaurants are only blocks away. The beds, sofa, and chairs were all comfy to hang out in and the kitchen (as well as the whole suite) looks modern and is well lit. It is just a short drive to Mt Ripley and also the Maasto Hiihto xc ski trails and Michigan Tech xc trails and is 1 hr from Mt Bohemia. This is a great place for a couple to stay.

Everything was great and comfortable. Information provided was a great help, location was nice. Could hear footsteps upstairs during the day, but we weren't there much during the day. Could use a black out shade in the bedroom just for the street lights as as options. Since it is a basement, it was a bit dark with only one window in the bedroom, but worked well for us.

This property is exactly as advertised. The lighting is fantastic and well thought out. As someone who likes to sleep with the TV on, it is worth noting there is no TV in the bedroom but I slept really well.
