Detailed Reviews
The Quality Inn had a discount stay in the hospital brochure. It was a good price for a one-night stay. The reviews were not promising but all I needed was a bed and some sleep. It provided me with that. The pool and hot-tub were closed which seem to have been a big draw in the past. It has a huge pool room in the center with a high ceiling and a lot of light in it. There was a note on the entrance that proclaimed the pool area was closed. I believe the restaurant attached to the hotel was closed also. That being said, the location is close to the ski hill and to the rib mountain shopping area. My room was outdated but it was warm and very clean, just what I needed for a good night's sleep.

We stayed on Sept 25 as a midway stop on our way to the Northwoods. The hotel is older, but very clean. We were hungry when we arrived and thought we'd have a bit to eat at the restaurant inside the hotel. The food was average at best, but was even more disappointing was that the bartender was completely intoxicated! She was so preoccupied with doing shots with other customers that we ended up going back to our room to get our own drinks. Not sure we'll be back.

FROM THE OWNER. Our bartenders are NOT allowed to drink behind the bar PERIOD. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. We watched with great detail the camera footage of that night, and you are SPOT on. Trust me when I tell you this will not happen with this particular bartender from this minute on. And all of our remaining bartenders were put on notice. Again, thank you for bringing this to my attention, it is customers like yourself that make us a better place to stay.

We had several issues with our reservations as the property transitioned to new ownership. Our reservations were cancelled without our knowledge and then dates were changed as well. If we had not called to confirm we would have shown up to no rooms.
The common area is very nice for groups/families. However, if you don't have a group contract good luck finding tables and/or chairs. There were large groups that had "reserved" 90% of the poolside seating leaving the rest of the hotel with very little. I have heard of reserving conference space for groups but not plastic tables and chairs around the pool.
Also, if you have a need for a roll away bed start requesting it immediately with your reservation as they are extremely difficult to come by.
Overall, the hotel is fine. Nothing spectacular but a nice place to stay for the price. I hope all the kinks are worked out with the transition.

Our second night was paid for (nonrefundable) and we still left instead of staying there.
The door was misaligned and you can see right into our room, I hung a sweatshirt on the door handle because they were fully booked.
The shower was moldy and smelled. The breakfast was useless. The staff were useless and smelled of bo. The entire hotel smelled of bo because of it.
I purchased cancellation insurance, and even though they were booked solid, they refused to cancel the second day. My wife didn't feel good, but this was not a big deal.
Would not recommend.. lol

We booked rooms on the 1st floor due to recent hip surgeries and knee replacements. We also asked for adjoining rooms. Neither of these happened. Stairs are steep and difficult. Water was dripping from the ceilings throughout the hotel. Children running the halls until midnight. Nothing down about this from the parents or the hotel.
Hotel is outdated to say the least. Avoid at all costs
As for the continental breakfast...not bad but no decaf coffee. But 3 pots of regular.
On a positive note, the bartender/waitress was Very nice and accommodating. Wish I got her name.

Arrived on a Friday to go skiing and the pool was closed. Selected the hotel because of the pool so was a little disappointed. Inquired when it might open at the front desk and the employee stated it had been closed for months. I said we booked a month ago and selected the hotel BECAUSE of the pool. His response was ‘sorry, sometimes Expedia and other sites lie so they can get the money’. Beds are a snug double. Overall quality is poor.

Breakfast eggs and potatoes were terrible. I’ve had better eggs deployed to Afghanistan! Room was gross. Visible stains of multiple colors on the bedspreads. Ceiling peeling in shower. Shower dod have awesome pressure and super hot water. Full beds were very uncomfortable. And who has full beds anymore?!! Tiny TV. Guessing at 37”. Mold in fridge. Hot tub didn’t work well-no bubbles, could’ve been hotter. Pool area wasn’t too bad but hardly anyone was staying there. Should have been a clue that the place is less than nice. Overall just a dirty hotel. Very disappointed. Will spend the extra money next time for a nicer place.

Very run down hotel and carpets smell like urine. No quality in this place. Very old furniture that should be thrown away. Bed spring was broken, and chair had no padding in the seat. Pool not open in second year. Planned to stay 3 nights but checked out after 1 night.

Horrible bait and switch. The pool is closed. The one reason we chose this location. The front desk said, “Yeah you should have know this when booking. We told the that we booked a few months back”, to which he replied, “Yeah, it’s been closed for months due to a leak.”
However, recent reviews rave about the pool. Are those reviews fake? Is the front desk lying. Either way, the pool is closed. And the hot tub. Are both the pool AND the hot tub leaking?
Poorly managed, poorly staffed and poorly maintained. Keep your distance and don’t say we didn’t warn you.
