Was unable to stay at Aspen Inn as the called and told us someone went through our room with a car. Was nice enough to put us in a different hotel. Couldn't stay at Shoreline as I didnt feel safe as our door Couldn't lock. We are waiting for our money back as they stated they would reimburse us.

Staff were efficient, friendly and helpful. Room was quiet, clean and affordable, but could use some refurbishing. Grand Marais is a popular destination, so book early.

Check in was fine. Front desk person was accommodating. Room was very dirty. Shower curtain was disgusting. Bedding may or may not have been washed. Smelled old and could detect the faint smell of cigarette smoke. I am guessing it wasn’t always a non-smoking place, especially because it’s an older building. Toilet had problems flushing. Carpet in the room looked newer but the room was not well maintained. TV was small, but there was a Roku with many options, so that was good. Doors into the building were not secure, but the room locked just fine. Lobby closes at around 8 or 9 PM, so very inconvenient in that respect. Free breakfast was minimal and pretty much all carbs. They had a Keurig-like machine, which was fine except that people had to wait in line. Lobby doubles as the breakfast area, so very small and not many places to sit. Probably the cheapest place in Grand Marais - would not return here. I guess you get what you pay for. Hotels in town and right on the lake look much nicer.

General disrepair. AC did not work. Storm door did not latch because someone had broken the sill when opened. Shower water was installed opposite so when you wanted hot water move to the cold side.

I will never stay here again. Room was old and worn. The A/C made more noise than the road traffic and to top it off the bathtub was dirty. All for $150 a night.

This is a great hotel if you like nasty moldy rooms, no AC, and like being double charged. We were told the double charge would be resolved within two weeks, and we are still dealing with it several weeks later. During my visit, the front desk staff seemed apologetic about the awful state of things. They told me that management does not like to fix things, so no improvements are made. If you book this place, do so with VERY low expectations.

This is a basic hotel without much in the way of extras or luxuries. For example, the free breakfast is uninspiring. However, it is extremely clean and well-maintained. The bed is comfortable, and the shower stall is one of the best layed-out I've seen. Very much a good value for the price.

Very poorly maintained, needs to be torn down and rebuilt. The parking lot is a disaster, the room was cleaned with bleach and the odor was overwhelming, I avoid confrontation at all cost. We paid when we checked in and after reviewing the room, we put our luggage back in the car and left without asking for a refund. We found other accommodations. The desk attendant was a very pleasant person, absolutely nothing negative to say about her. You shouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

Property was formerly a semi-decent Super 8 that we used often in the past when on winter x-c ski adventures, but changed hands in last 10-15 years. Owners now appear to be the same real estate group who bought up many of the motels in Grand Marais (including a slightly better but pricier motel on the NE end of town with similar name: Aspen Lodge), which is an extremely popular Minnesota vacation area on Lake Superior. Quite remote so not many options for lodging. This property has NOT been properly maintained - now very dirty & heading toward dereliction. Ice machine "broken" so guests offered ice in lobby from a cooler - primitive but workable first night; however, second night told "no ice"...only one staff person on duty & she could not leave to buy more ice (say what?). Had only an antique, extremely loud and ineffective room air conditioner, and windows would not open. Bathroom sink replaced sometime in last decade, but so tall that touched the bottom of the original shelf above sink, making it very difficult reach the hot/cold spigots. No maid service between day #1 & day #2. Parking lot desperately needs repaving; potholes galore. There was a fridge but no microwave. Alarm clock did not work. WiFi, however, was quite good. Property needs a serious facelift!! I will not stay here again until it is upgraded - even if it means driving 40 miles farther north to Thunder Bay, Ontario for lodging.

The room was not the cleanest and the ice machine was broken, the staff left at 8pm for the night. The staff was really friendly and helpful very pleasant to talk with. Breakfast was cereal, toast, waffles to put in the toaster, bagels and cream cheese, cartons of juice. It was ok place but not sure i would stay there again

Aspen inn was adequate, but they didn't collect the garbage until I asked, and even then, they ask that you place the container outside for them to pick up, and for you to bring it back in. Free breakfast was sparse, mostly sugary cereals, beverages, etc. the facility itself was in need of much renovation. The spa, listed on their website, was closed, and has been so for months.

This place just needs a full overhaul. Spa wasn’t working, exterior doors didn’t close all the way, door to room you had to shoulder to open, staff person was nice and rooms seemed clean with what they had to work with. Good location to Grand Marais!
