My husband and I booked a room at Odyssey owened Mountain Inn at Lutsen to celebrate our five-year anniversary. When we arrived at our check-in time, we were told that there was no room for us! The hotel had overbooked. They could, however, book us into one of their more expensive rooms at the property down the road (with no discount). The hotel, despite having my phone number, never called or texted to tell us that the hotel was overbooked. We were told it was "a known issue" with their booking software that "had been happening for about two weeks."
It was just bait and switch.
We had just come in from hiking ten miles and had driven five hours away from home. We were looking forward to a hot shower and a place to relax and instead had to get back into our car and drive the five hours home because we couldn't afford their more expensive property. It completely ruined our anniversary getaway, there was no offer to really make things right, and I can't imagine what would have happened if we had to check in late.

If they buy a new towel for the condo they add 20% to the bill. This company is greedy, greedy, do yourself a favor and buy or rent somewhere else. Customer service is poor, front desk manager won't even look up from his screen to greet a guest. General manager many or many now address your concerns, they don't care they don't have too, they're the...
Read moreMy boyfriend and I have stayed at their location in Grand Marais several times over the past few years. East Bay Suites is an excellent location to soak up phenomenal views of Lake Superior. It is approximately 100 feet from the shoreline. If you get a lake view room you will be completely immersed by the sound, smell and sight of its beauty. The rooms are very clean, comfortable, spacious and the decor is also lovely. The fireplace in both the bedroom and living room is perfect. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need for cooking. We spend most of our time in town in our suite and we...
