Staff was friendly, room was clean. We got a free upgrade. Breakfast was light, it would have been nice to have something of more sustenance .

The Baywatch Resort
Had a lovely stay. Only mishap was not the fault of the hotel. A car ran into the power pole in front of the building and there was no electricity for a few hours.

Blossom Hotel & Suites Traverse City
Everything was fine. Next time I may need to ask for a handicap room, the toilet was so low, could barely get up. I have back problems. The hot tub was broken, which was something I was looking forward to.
