The lobby and hallways were clean and smelled fresh, but when we entered our room, it had a very stale smell. Once in the room, we got used to the smell and it wasn't bad. We slept well and everything seemed clean. The only issue was the stale smell every time we entered our room.

Rooms where really clean ,staff really nice. Not much for the breakfast just cold cereal, and bread for toast . Could of been better . They need to clean up the weeds going down to the beach . So you can at least get down to the beach , and maybe rake the beach once in while so you can walk on it .

Front desk clerk was friendly but not very helpful. The sign out front says award winning, I don’t know the award but the place needs some help. The rooms are dated with furniture, the floors need a serious cleaning, The deck on the as picture is starting to rot and the beach should be cleaned. The landscaping around the building is all dead and was sprayed with weed killer. Cobwebs litter the exterior walls, and windows need cleaning. Maybe the award was its close to nearly all dispensaries in Menomonie, MI.

Thank you. I think the area by the shore could be improved by making it a bit larger, raking the sand, offering chairs by the shore. It is a lovely spot and could be more utilized though I totally understand that this would be costly. We enjoyed our stay. We appreciated that a one night stay is offered as we were passing through. When I was looking on-line to make a reservation I had a difficult time trying to contact you directly which I would have preferred. I ended up booking through Expedia but would have rather just called you. Perhaps that was due to my lack of knowledge on-line but now I have your number and will consider booking again.

Do not believe the pics. The expedia post makes this place look peaceful and isolated. It is not. It is in a busy commercial area. The bay view is scant and the bayside area js unkempt. Breakfast is one of the worst I have seen on this two week trip. Basic and uninspired. But the worst is the feeling that I was duped by the images.

Everything about this hotel was fantastic from
The beginning. Making my reservation was very easy user friendly. When I arrived I was tired and had a not so great experience at a previous location I stayed along my travels so when I arrived my entire trip turned around for the better. The grounds were immaculate the view was everything to be expected and then some. All the staff was polite and personable. I will be returning next year with my wife and we can’t wait to stay here again

Convenient location. Very clean room. AC worked well. Staff was helpful and check in was quick and efficient.
My only suggestion would be to hire some window cleaners. When you walk in, the entry doors and windows were terribly dirty which gives a bad first impression. The room windows need cleaning outside as well. And the pillows are flat and very firm - not my favorite….a variety to choose from would be nice. But overall the hotel was well kept and clean.

Room was clean, and there IS a fan in the bathroom (big plus in my book), but I had to keep the curtains drawn, because there was mold all along the window trim. The continental breakfast was ok. Limited selection, but oatmeal, cereal, fresh fruit, juice, bread for toast and microwavable bkfst sandwiches were fine. I found it was worth the money for the night. good location, right off of the highway and right on the shore of the Lake.

Room was clean, but windows were so dirty you couldn’t see the “lake view”. Also, you can decide for yourself, but the “lake view” was more of a 3/4 parking lot and 1/4 lake view. I’ll put a picture here so you can decide. Breakfast choices were really limited with only hot option being a microwaved egg sandwich, toast or instant oatmeal. Breakfast area was only checked every hour so things tend to run out. The lake view behind the hotel is beautiful though so that was nice…freezing in the morning, but a beautiful view. Would’ve been nice to see that from the room since we paid for a lake view with dirty windows you could barely see out of.

AVOID!!! Looks like a good place but by far the worst hotel experience i have ever had. The front desk staff was nice but everything else sucks. I shouldnt have stayed there but it was already paid for. My rooms sheets wasnt even changed when me and my wife were there. Didnt realize till morning after we woke up. We got in super late like 11pm at night. Something was smeared on the the sheets and mattress pad on the side of the bed. I have pictures. After my wife asked the front counter in the morning if we could please get the sheets changed because we didnt know what was on it. We came back after a whole day out visiting my family to the sheets not changed and all they did was wipe it off. So gross. So my wife went back down to the desk and asked for for a fresh sheet set and we ended up putting fresh sheets on our selfs. As for breaksfast in the morning forget it go else where unless you want a jimmy dean sandwich you heat up in the microwave or 3 kinds of cereal to choose from along with boiled eggs. I know its continental and complimentary from them but i have never seen so low of choices to choose from in a hotel. I have stayed at cheaper hotels and got more when it comes to breakfast

There's no pool, which is okay because I wasn't in need of a pool. The room was not very clean. The bathroom mirror had brown dripping streaks, the desk chair was peeling/ falling apart, the hot water wasn't hot, and a smelly carpet that smelled like cigarettes. The king bed was alright but only made with 2 rock- hard pillows. When my husband went to the front desk to ask for more pillows the guy accused us of having extra people in the room, which was odd. He then said they were out of pillows. Eventually the desk person found some pillows and dropped them off very late when we were finally about to fall asleep. The worst part for me was the breakfast; there is no waffle maker! The breakfast was pretty much stale cereals, or toast. There was no fruits, and there was a homeless woman talking to herself \"what are ya building a wall to China!?\" Over and over again. I would definitely not stay here again, AmericInn down street is way better.

The room was very spacious and had all the things we needed to stay the night. We stayed in the king suite.
Couple of problems that actually solidifies that we most likely won’t return

The bed? Rock solid. The pillows? Bring your own bc they are also rocks.
230am I was woken to the fireplace kicking on. For no reason as we were asleep
We could hear the people in the next room loud and clear and every time they had conversation.
The toilet paper is cheap and falls apart
The woman at front desk was kind and allowed us to check in an hour early, but her attitude was definitely not welcoming.
The breakfast was good for a continental.
Overall the surroundings were great. But the room amenities were average at best and uncomfortable

Upon first arrival I waited 20 minutes at the front desk before I got recognition I was there. After I was checked in I was told to pull around the side of the building and I could access my room from there. So that’s what exactly what I did, but unfortunately, the side door would not open, so I had to walk around the entire building and wait another 10 minutes to be recognized again. The front desk clerk walk me to my room and confirmed that the keys were not working for the outside door or my room. I was given another set of keys and those also did not open the outside door. So for two days, I’ve been walking around the side of the building so I can access my room and today day three I’m still not able to access the side door so I checked out and I will be staying somewhere That’s more convenient. Also the mattress is rock hard like plywood. Lastly no fan with heat, it’s either or. Who can sleep without a fan or heat when it’s 30 degrees out.

Very disappointed, will never stay here again.

In one word, my stay at the Econo Lodge on the Bay is \"Disappointed\".
Whoever submitted the photos and the description of this property to Hotels.com, made it look and sound far better than it actually was. They stated that this property was \"award winning\". They sure fooled me. Based on what I saw and read on the website, I really thought that this property was a significant step-up from the other Econo Lodge properties I've seen over the years. Well, I was wrong.

The minute I walked into the hotel, I smelled the odor of stale cigarette smoke, just like you would years ago before most hotels banned smoking. Looking around the place, it felt like I was going back in time. This feeling was reinforced when I entered my room, which struck me as being small, dark, and outdated (with the exception of the bed, which appeared to be fairly new). By the way, the key to my room didn't work so I went down stairs to the check-in desk and the desk clerk had to reactivate the card and he said there was a problem with the key activation device - sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. (Note: I was staying there two nights and the next day the same thing happened again. The same clerk was on duty and said don't blame me, I didn't do anything wrong, it's the machine's fault.

The \"breakfast\" offered was sad - poor selection, poor quality, and some items gone.

The only positives for me were that the hotel was clean and quiet.

My conclusion, I will never stay at an Econo Lodge again.

The hotel bathtub had a large burn mark in the bottom of tub and stains on the sheets. No elevator in the hotel so we had to drag our luggage up and down the stairs to second floor which was not practical. The front desk clerk didnt even ask if anyone would prefer to have a room on the first floor. The view of the water located at the end of the hotel was the best part of our experience.
