Im not a complainer, and hate to complain, so let's start off with this... Great communication via text, with easy instructions. Easy to find. Cute place, right off of the Hwy and across from Beautiful Lake Superior! Parking right outside your unit. It was easy access to enter into your Unit, via instructions given. We stayed in Unit 44. It was super cute! It has a small refrigerator, small microwave, sink and cubby holes/shelves, table with coffee maker, bench type luggage rack, metal chair, decent sized bathroom. One thing this unit does not have, is a patio or deck, which we were a tad disappointed at, since all the other units seemed to have them. Just a large window with blackout remote blinds, overlooking the Hwy and beautiful Lake Superior! **Please add a deck and sliding glass door to Unit 44!!** Thankfully, The Birchy have picnic tables outside on their grounds for you to be able to sit and relax at. Even with the traffic going by, it was peaceful to sit out there and look at the Big Lake, the moon and stars, plus the sunrise!! Now, I will admit, my husband and I are bed snobs, as we own a Tempur-Pedic. But... let's talk about the bed! It was NOT comfy! We felt like we were falling into the headboard when we would lay down! We slept, but both woke up with very sore backs! Otherwise, for those minor things, it was a great place, close to town, and we would stay again.

Great stay, will stay again.

Very cute, clean and modern. Simple in and out made it convenient to get going to where you wanted to be. Would definitely stay there again.

The room was very nice. The stairs felt treacherous and could benefit from better marking as the steps are uneven

You have a great view of Lake Superior.

The bed was too high, had to stand on a chair to get on it. The electronic key pad malfunctioned, took the staff over an hour to rectify the problem. The hair dryer was missing, and we had the only room in the entire hotel that didn't have a balcony or deck. There were weeds knee high in front of our door. This place did not live up to it's web site description. The only saving grace was that it was extremely clean and the bed was comfortable once I got in it. I would likely not stay there again.

Clean,quiet and nice area. I took a photo of the Northern Lights right outside my room. It was amazing!

Amazing stay, great location. We will be back.

Good stay. Clean room with comfortable bed and plenty of charge outlets. Need to provide enough coffee for entire stay. Good location.

The concept of this property is unique, easy access, minimal frills, decent price, however execution of this concept was very lacking in this case. We arrived to the property and were able to access the room without any staff interaction, but that is were the convenience ended. The property is pet friendly, the walls are very thin and we had several dogs that were barking significantly. The property is right off the main highway, and without any sound proofing this meant we heard significant traffic all night. The property claims to be smoke free, but the patrons who wanted to smoke did so where ever they wanted to, this is the start of the problem with not having staff available. When we settled down into our room we discovered that there was no remote to the tv, when we reached out to the number provided it took over an hour for a response and we were told there was nothing they could do about it that night (due to no staff on site I assume). We were only staying one night, so this meant that we were not able to even watch tv before bed. They were eventually (about 3 hours in) able to get the dogs to stop barking, our neighbors continued to be loud and smoke throughout the night, the laundry/ice facility was not well kept and we decided we did not feel comfortable using those amenities. Overall for $200 a night this was not the bargain we were hoping for, we would not stay again.

Nice up to date rooms. Great views. Enjoyed the balcony, and looking out over Lake Superior.

Beautiful view of Lake Superior. And games to play outside and fire ring

The room was very nice, a modern Scandinavian style. The view was very nice of Lake Superior. The king size bed was very good quality. The location is very convenient, only a couple miles to center Marquette with good restaurants and shopping. Hwy 41 by the motel is quite loud during the day. Birchy thoughtfully had a sound machine in the room to drown out the road when sleeping. In the morning rush turning left toward town can be tricky. The bath room tub had no grab bars, a bit dangerous for us older folks. We had a bad experience trying to get the TV to work. A half dozen calls to maintenance only partially solved the issue with battery changes and reprogramming a new remote. While the room was newly renovated, the air conditioner was quite old and had a mind of its own. It would change its temperature setting during the night, waking me up too hot.

Our room had a nice balcony but no chairs on balcony or in the room. Could not get comfortable on the room, did not like bed, but no other place to sit. Outside lots of picnic tables but very poor condition. Nicely redecorated rooms.

Great stay. Great location. This place is great and will be at the top of the list when we return.

Everything was smooth and as expected.

Clean and comfy. Would recommend!

Customer service was fantastic! We requested a later checkout time because we were in town for a marathon and we were uncertain when we would finish. They responded immediately and accommodated our request. They had a no contact check in and check out and they communicated all the information to make that smooth experience.

Very clean & modern. Pool, bikes & cornhole all at n/c. No employees at the property. A code to open the door is sent to you a few days ahead of your stay. Worked great. No issues. Several miles south of town on the highway and bike path. Not as noisy as we thought it would be because the walls are well insulated. Great beds.

Nice little place water across the street and the bikes provided was a nice touch

The property was cute, cozy clean and exceeded my expectations in every way. The location is also great. I could see Lake superior right out my back window. I would definitely stay here again anytime I’m passing through the area or even for a small vacation. I will say that the Wi-Fi is not great, but I don’t think that anybody Goes to the UP for the Wi-Fi anyway.

The only thing that was a bit of a disappointment is that the window A/C units were soo loud so it was very difficult too sleep as it was usually hot weather and you had too run the A/C while sleeping.

The propery was very friendly and responsive. Checking in and out were so easy.

Nice job lace

the hotel is situated directly across from the shore of Lake Superior. i spent much time on the balcony reading and watching the waves roll in. the room was well equipped with a microwave, fridge/freezer, and great toilettries. the check-in/check-out was simple and straight forward.

Nice place to stay !!!

It’s an OK place to spend a night. The rooms are nice enough but the surrounding area isn’t. There was all kinds of construction materials and a dumpster right outside. The lake view is more of a busy highway with a lake behind it. The whole virtual check-in thing was incredibly annoying. I thought it would be easy but it was nonstop texts and emails and requests for phone calls. I’d have much rather dealt with a person at a desk one time than that mess or messages for two straight days. If you really need a place to sleep for a night, sure, but you can do much better.

The staff was unbelievably helpful. Couldn't recommend more. Clean. Modern. Affordable.

Great views. You hardly heard your neighbors. Comfortable rooms.

We loved our stay at the Birchy. The room was spotless and full of nice touches, like remote control window shades. We enjoyed the deck, with its view of Lake Superior. The bed was very comfortable. We paid an extra fee to bring our dog, which was worth it. We would highly recommend this recently remodeled motel.

Excellent clean very easy to check in property, but on a four-lane highway very loud. If you want quiet and peaceful to hear the birds, this will not happen at this location. Very clean excellent accommodations. The air conditioner could not keep up with the heat and humidity. The bed is very high, so if you’re a short person, you’ll need help getting into bed.

I was never given access the booking was inncorect. When I called for help I was given access to someone else room by my surprise. The contact just ignored this happened. They were no help and messed up my whole trip. Causing a terrible experience to me by intrupting someone’s space. I demand a refund.
