We really enjoyed our stay. It would be nicer if they had small garbage cans in our bedroom instead of having to go to the small kitchen or the bathroom every time. Also they should provide at least coffee in the morning. It doesn't have a hostel vibe, there's no intercultural exchange but the place is clean and very comfortable. No parking available right at the building but across the street.

Clean and comfortable place to stay, much nicer than anticipated. One surprise: the top slats of the room walls are offset (probably for airflow) which means that you hear every sound. Bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Not being able to open the window was a little frustrating but for the price I can’t complain too much. The place was clean, felt safe, there was reserved parking with our room and spacious bathrooms.

Walls are basically curtains. Weird offset slats on the tops of the walls by the room so you can see light from the other rooms and hear EVERYTHING. Hearing the person in the next room toss and turn in bed. Some degenerate left baby batter in one of the toilets.

Simple and clean with a microwave to enable us to heat up leftovers in the glass bowls we brought along. Tableware suited us fine, including the hard plastic dishes and bowls - we just don’t put plastic in a microwave, (maybe some types are ok - we just avoid it). Mattress was a bit too soft to our liking, but it was ok. Not being tech-savvy and skittish about downloading another app so we could use our phones as our “room key,” we appreciated Joe’s helpfulness and the option to obtain a physical key card. We brought everything else we needed, as recommended.

All of the information provided by staff was accurate and helpful. I did have an issue with parking since another person was in my spot. Since I was required to park in my space, I was worried about being ticketed. I communicated with the staff via email and Expedia, but did not get a response. It was short notice and I was told that they would respond within 24 hours. The issue was that would not help me in that moment which is not anyone's fault. Just an oversight.

What a great find in Duluth! The bed was comfortable, the bathrooms were clean, the shower water was hot, and the kitchen area was appreciated. The staff were so kind and helpful! I enjoyed the bar, gift shop, and outdoors focused ambiance. The only downside was that I could hear my neighbors at times, but for the price and value it wasn't a big deal. I'll be back!

I liked the hostel setup. Private room, individual bathroom/showers. Not at all like a college dorm, for instance. But more interesting than a chain motel. Good restaurants as well as fast food and gas stations within a block’s walking. Sweet cozy cocktail bar downstairs.

I thought the property was very nice, comfortable, and everyone was very nice! Truly, my only complaint is that you can hear EVERYTHING in the rooms, even from other guests down the hall. Most of the time, the noise level was okay, but there were some very inebriated and boisterous guests up all night during our stay who made it impossible to get any sleep. Other than the noise, the stay was great!
