Great stay for a few days
Easy, quick and friendly check-in. Room was clean and ready upon arrival. Breakfast was warm and a decent selection, we have had waffles here in the past and they seem to be gone now. Over great stay, will be back

Nice place to stay
We stayed in one of the cottages. While it was outdated, we were very happy with it. It was spacious, except for the shower stall, and met our needs just fine. The ladies doing the check in/check out were very friendly and helpful.

Good hotel for someone on a budget.
I'm sure many would knock this place down for it's condition and being outdated, but for the price you pay, it was a wonderful stay. We were looking to go economical, and Cedar Motor Inn delivered. If you are on a budget, you will feel safe, you will have the minimum necessities you need, and you might even enjoy yourself. If you're looking for an updated hotel, with nice fixtures, and beautiful appeal.....then you'll just need to pay twice as much and go somewhere else.

This was a friendly, clean, inexpensive place to stay on my way to hike along Lake Superior. It’s an older building, so a scuff here and there, but perfect for a girl who wanted nice staff, a comfy bed and a hot shower.

Graduation trip
The beds were clean and very comfortable. The layout of the room was nice. They need to update their shower/tub enclosure. It looked a little rough. Overall we feel it was a very pleasant place to stay and a good value.
