Blossom Hotel & Suites Traverse City

10/10 Excellent

"The amenities were very good & staff very friendly. An excellent stay over all"

Boardwalk Suites & Residences By Kasa

10/10 Excellent

"It was very easy to check in and self explanatory. They will send you a link to upload your ID and choose a method for incidental damages. I chose the $250 refundable method and provided a credit card. You have the option to pay $50 for parking but honestly, the parking garage is a block away and it's $25 overnight. We chose to get the parking ourselves. The link they send you gives you detail by detail instructions (and pictures) on how to get to the property as well as where to go and how to get inside. They put a lot of work into it and I appreciate that. I'm always nervous about going to unfamiliar places. Their guide was very helpful. As for the room, think hotel. It was very clean inside and had the space of a hotel room with 2 queen beds. We had a party of 3 and there was plenty of space. As someone else had mentioned, I do wish there was some kind of little table to sit at. We ordered pizza and sat on the floor as to not dirty the white bedding. The bathroom was nice and had bottled soap and lotion at the sink. They smelled very nice. We did not use the shower as we were headed to the beach for the day and would shower afterword, so I can not comment on that. It looked nice though. The room was in a great location and walkable to pretty much everything downtown. We even walked over to the beach by taking the tunnel. Overall, very nice place to stay and we would stay again."
