Just okay-ish

For the most part our room was okay but definitely not for the price. The bed was very lumpy, the headboard was loose and noisy. The air conditioner could not be on "auto" or it sounded like a jet engine and did not regulate the temperature in the room, keeping us from restful sleep.

Very worn. The people below me were smoking outside, so I could not enjoy my balcony. When I spoke to the front desk, the person was not helpful. I will not be staying here again.

Great Wolf Lodge was great. The staff were great. The only negative is that there seems to be really poor Lyft and Uber service around Traverse City.
