Pros +
- beautiful view and location on the river, unique motel building, cute decor, deck off of room, fireplace in room, ease of check-in
- There was a very nice sitting lobby and the breakfast was very good. I felt as if this was more of a bed and breakfast than a traditional hotel. I hope to stay again one day. The room I had also was very clean and I enjoyed the room.
- Wonderful homemade breakfast with amazing staff! It felt like a cozy bed and breakfast and we were so comfortable.
Cons -
- Needs updating and a refresh, in & out, surface clean, but not detail clean - dusty bed, dirty carpets w/dust around edges, hole in the wall for AC, blind slats broken - sun in face in AM, no elevator, no one around to ask questions of..
- I don't have anything bad to say. It felt like money well spent. It is close to center of whitefish and all of the wonderful little stores.
- It was a little loud when guests came and went. Could have been our room location as the room wasn¿t as removed from the lobby as a hotel might be.

The staff. Very friendly and helpful. Loved their waffles. Relaxed, cheerful. Simple but comfortable with all I needed. Great location on the river.
Not really.
Very relaxing in and out atmosphere, clean rooms, and excellent Breakfast.
Everything exceeded expectations.
The owners are very welcoming, friendly and helpful.
The room was a bit hot even with the heat off, but cracking a window open helped.
It's inviting, comfortable feels more like home than a lodge. The owners are friendly, engaging and helpful. And hotel employee is the best!!!!
The hotel is located in a quiet, corner of town with easy access to main thoroughfares and the downtown. Not a large hotel so there is no noise from other guests. Very much like staying at a friends house.
Best breakfast, nice staff.
Wish they had coffee at 6 am.
location and staff were phenomenal
bed was squeaky
Professional service, intelligent employee, stress free atmosphere.
Awesome rooms, fabulist hospitality, incredible breakfast, quiet location close to town. Definitely exceeded our expectations. This place gets warmth service. Would be great for a family reunion or a gathering of friends, booking the whole place.
No kidding, perfect.
This is a boutique hotel. Small and welcoming. The morning breakfast is really special.
Friendly staff.
Location was a bit removed. $8 cab ride.
The owners were incredibly kind and fun to visit with. They made sure everything was perfect and that everyone was having a good time. Very comfy lobby to hang out in and the room had a beautiful fireplace, big tub, and comfy bed.
Everything was wonderful.
This is a beautiful hotel with a view of the river on one side. We stayed there in early October when the trees were turning colors. Hotel employees made sure everything was perfect for us. The coffee and warm entee was delicious.
I would recommend this beautiful hotel. The beds are so comfortable.
Everything! The location, the view, the interior design, the rooms cleanness, the Breakfast. We travel a lot and never find such a good deal hotel with this quality!
Very nice room and chance to see wildlife in yard.
Disappointed in Breakfast. Was nice setup but not what I eat.
Staff
Room small and dark. Barking dogs early in morning. Lots of traffic noise.
Very cozy and has a beautiful location right by the river. Also, great breakfast and a staff that makes you feel right at home. Very comfy bed. Loved the porch and fireplace in the room too! Will definitely recommend.
