The place is spotless and the owner is super helpful. Shower is small, like European showers. Excellent choice for those watching their spending habits while travelling.

The owner was welcoming and friendly. the hotel is in an excellent location and we loved our room- it was nicely maintained with a great layout and a small deck!
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Great location for our family, and the outdoor fit pits with wood made for a much better way to spend out evening than inside watching TV. A few minor things could be updated, but the property is being actively maintained and we got everything we asked for. Very pleased how quiet and comfortable our room was. Next time I am in the area, I will happily choose this Inn again!

8/10 Very good

Our 3 important criteria for a hotel are bed comfort, shower, and cleanliness. The Willard Munger was in a good location and although there was no one at the office, he showed up quickly and was helpful. the hotel was older, but it was clean, the bed was comfortable and the shower was great. Not by any means fancy, but adequate for sure.

I am comfortble in th West End of Duluth, so this is a good/economical place to stay. However, it was better before Covid, when they provided breakfast.

This place was delightful. It was super easy to get everywhere, had easy parking, and was very clean and cozy. I would definitely stay here again. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. I would give it an 11 out of 10, it was that great!

Room was clean when we walked in, the staff was just as friendly as before when we stayed there the first time, the owner personally came up and talked to us and that’s something that you don’t get to have that often at some hotels, perfect view of the northern lights the first night too. The best part is that we didn’t have to worry about taking a Lyft everywhere, we got to take the bus. Definitely going to be staying here again, there’s so much stuff to do in area.

The rooms are always so clean and they smell clean, the dogs are so fun to hang out with. The place is family owned so there’s pretty almost always someone there to help you, we wished we got to stay there until check out but we had to check our greyhound early and we were able to drop off our key in the key drop and it was so convenient and they dogs are so sweet, I can’t get enough of them. The location of this hotel is perfect, it’s quiet around the area except traffic but eh whatever it’s traffic but you don’t have to deal with any upstairs neighbors and with some rooms you get a little deck it’s so cute I love it, I don’t need a lot to make me happy. This place is affordable for me and it’s close to everywhere I need to get to. Like I said I don’t need a lot to be happy. This place is my home away from home.

Nostalgic stay next to easy nature trail

Loved the nostalgic setting with sufficient updates for modern convenience and comfort. Having the nature trail just outside the door was also wonderful. I was even able to easily extend my stay on short notice.
