This location is owned by Seasons Inn TRAVERSE CITY. I rented a room at the economy inn accross from the the Hotel. I stayed for one week. It was 250 a week, I had 215 and had to run to the bank to get the rest of my money which was 35 dollars. I worked late on Friday which was the day rent was due. I called and let the lady know on Friday morning from the front desk, I told her i couldn't pay till later in the night friday. Friday night rolled around, I worked and then ran out of gas. I got back in after being help with gas at 2am. I went to the office and told the man I had 215 bu. i told him i had to go to the bank to get the other 35 on Saturday. Saturday rolled around and I went in to talk to the manager to let her know what was going on. She accussed me of making excuses and told me to get my stuff and leave the premises. I said theirs no way you can work with me on this and she said we did. And you failed. We gave you till 8 Friday night. I said "you never specified a time." She then told me to leave again. Mind you other hotel guest were eating in the breakfast area while she is raising her voice at me. Being very disrespectful. I ask to speak to the manager and she said "I am the managaer." I said "Can I talk to the owner. She said no. I left and walked back in to tell her i would let the owner know what happened and i was also letting him know about the living conditions in the motel. Our room was not cleaned, we had previous guest blood on our sheets, the bathroom floor had severe water damage. I reported and took picture of before and after i cleaned the room. The A/c and heat unit had 2 inch thick mold where the heat comes out. I cleaned that as well. The maintance man fixed the toilet that you couldnt sit on without it tipping. Overall the hospitallity and ethics of the manager was unexceptable. You dont treat your customers like that. Period! I get i had to leave but the whole situation was wrong.
Just there for a quick overnight, so not looking for a ton of amenities. Pool looked fun. Clean and decently furnished. Good price
