Check in was super easy and convenient. Rooms were adorable, clean, and relatively spacious! Enjoyed the location. Easy to access and close to town! Impressed by the modern amenities and bathroom. Super helpful staff, as tv was difficult to connect to at first. Called service number and employee was kind, patient and helpful as he walked us through the process. Other guests were considerate of quiet time. Overall a wonderful stay and would highly recommend.

Room was very clean and newly remodeled. Bed was very comfortable Owner was available by phone and also on the property a lot of the time. We were very pleased with this property and will stay again. No amenities on property really. Although rooms had coffee machines, shampoo and conditioner and very nice soap. Working refrigerators (new) and small freezer. Stores and restaurants close by.

This place was super cute and you can tell it was recently updated. The room itself is super clean, stocked with all the goods you would find in a larger hotel and check-in/out is quick & easy. It doesn’t seem like it, but this place is walkable to the downtown Aitkin stretch (roughly 30 minute walk). we were able to check out some cute shops and grab a bite from a cute local spot.

The place must have just been renovated. It was beautiful, very clean and quiet. Roomy. I liked the separate bedroom for the kids. Close enough to walk into town. Jackie was very friendly.

It was a very clean and nice place to stay! My only complaint would be the lack of communication from Expedia/hotels.com to the property. We had no clue how to get into our room because they never got contact information from Expedia
