Beautiful location right at the shore of Lake Superior. Most of the staff was really helpful. Gluten-free breakfast for my company worked out well.

The room was very comfortable and offered a ton of storage. The microwave and fridge were appreciated as well. While one elevator was out of order during our stay, they staff accommodated it very well, offering us a choice of rooms depending on our needs. I also appreciated the exercise room. The breakfast buffet has many options and coffee was available in the lobby all day long.

“Fantastic stay on the Lakeside - just needs a couple tweaks to make it exceptional.”
I found some of the staff went above and beyond. The location was amazing - but only on the lakeside. City view was a different vibe and noisy. Breakfast was better than expected.
