Magnuson Hotel Country Inn

Nothing fancy here, but clean and super friendly staff. Another thing that made our stay fantastic. We actually booked a day sooner than we thought we had. We were on a bicycle riding trip around Wisconsin and headed for the UP on our way home to lower Michigan. We thought we had booked Jul 11 - 12. In error we booked 10-11th. The morning of the 11th, the property manager called us to see if all was well, as we hadn’t checked in the prior night. We were on our way that afternoon expecting to stay 11-12th. Our bad. The manager was able to change our reservation and accommodate us without issue. Highly recommend this hotel!

Very clean facilities. When we checked in you could see a housekeeper folding clean laundry in the laundry room. When we walked in the room, it smelled like clean bed linens. The furniture was not new but was in really good shape, especially compared to other hotels, even nicer hotels. When we left or came back through the day, we caught glimpses of housekeepers cleaning the rooms and they were scrubbing those showers!

This motel is an “oasis in the desert”. Coming from the western U.P. it is the first sign of life after driving through 100 miles of non-existent “towns”. We found it to be clean, safe, and comfortable.

I liked the location. Also I thought the continental breakfast was very good.

Good value! It's an older hotel, no thrills or anything fancy but it was clean and the staff were really nice. We stayed three nights. The beds were comfortable, the hotel was so quiet at night (we were on 2nd floor). There was a little noise from the highway but nothing that kept us awake. There is a grocery store within walking distance and good restaurants nearby and downtown. We commuted to Marquette to visit family and it was a pretty quick 20 minute drive! We would definitely stay here again.
