It is an okay place to stay for a night passing through on a snowmobile, but not for long durations. The bar offers pizzas and air-fryer frozen chicken tenders (nothing to write home about), and you see the pool/jacuzzi from the entry. With that in mind, I will say that the breakfast in the morning is good with eggs, sausages, and waffles you can make yourself.

Most of the rooms have a small balcony that in the summer would be perfect for cocktails overlooking the beautiful tree line lake in your backyard. In the winter time, there's a whirlpool tub in the bedroom to look out over the snow, covered trees and beautiful winter wonderland while you soak the stress away.

My husband had a dinner meeting so we picked up a pizza from Tastys Take and Bake in the early afternoon for me to eat later for dinner. We needed a room for one night. We had already been away from home a few days and were making our way back. I did not pack a swim suit so Rented a room with a jacuzzi. We visited the local Walmart where I was able to pick up some lovely scented epson salt for my achy body. I was kicking myself for not picking up paper plates and napkins at Walmart but was relieved when I saw plates and paper towel in the room. The room itself was comparable to many hotel rooms we stay in. But this one had an actual balcony with chairs facing the highway that runs a bridge between two bodies of water. Has a cute little fireplace but we didn't use it. Took me a bit to figure out the heating/cooling. The room was a bit warm when we checked in so we opened the balcony door to cool it down a bit. (It is Nov 2nd and highs in the low 30s). We like it cool when we sleep. We got to town a little after 11:30. After lunch and shopping I called a little after 1 pm to see if our room would be ready earlier than the 4 pm check in. Lucky for us it is the off season and our room was already ready! The price was cheap too for a jacuzzi king room. The clerk who answered the phone was friendly and welcoming. The location is great at the edge of town. It is a large hotel so if you want to use an elevator to haul your luggage in/out you may have to travel a bit. Otherwise you will be hauling it up or down stairs. We didn't stick around for the Complementary breakfast as we know of a great coffee shop in town that has excellent oatmeal etc. I have no idea what these rooms go do in high season but for $135 plus tax a night it was a comfort.

As retirees, we want to travel a bit more. I was satisfied that I could find a room in a motel that…read morewas rated well among customers. I thought it was pretty nice that, on the day before the stay, they sent me several text messages about how to get to our room: directions from the main desk, the combinations to the digital locks and how to use them, and they even sent me a picture of the room's door. The outside of the hotel looked clean and might have had a recent remodel. There was no professional landscaping, but I didn't expect to see any, either. It became clear immediately that those text messages were worth saving. There is a digital combination lock for the main door and the same combination for the door leading up to our room. There was no one at the main desk, which I thought was odd. Our room's door was missing the trim around it (I was told via text that the digital lock is new, so I assume that the whole door is new, too?). Our room was located on the second floor - the only room on the second floor. The only way to get there was to navigate the narrow hallway then climb some stairs that were slightly steeper than standard. Because we are retirees and my wife's knees have been surgically replaced, the steepness made it difficult to get to our room. When I got to the top of the stairs I could see that there is a non-zero probability of accidentally falling down the stairs as there is no door or gate at the top. Nevertheless, the room looked spacious and cozy. The bedroom was comfortable and well set up. It was roomy, had comfy chairs, a day beef in addition to the king bed, a coffee bar, and a TV which we didn't use. It looks like they spent most of their remodeling money on the bathroom. It's very nice and big (see pics). The bedroom's and hallway's carpeted areas don't feel like they're well-padded. Our picture window looks out over a lake with loads of lilypads and a deck. We got lucky and saw three deer (a doe and two fawns). If you don't like interacting with humans, you don't have to. We did online booking, got our keys (digital combinations) via text message, and left without seeing anyone. I wonder how long it would have taken to get assistance if we needed it. In sum, we would not stay at this motel in the future. For younger persons with good knees, this would be a good choice.

The obviously well insulated rooms were quiet and with the thick, updated keypad entry to our room was great. No key necessary. Quick and easy check in and out was also really nice.

The water is slimy. The lifeguards don't speak any English. This facility does NOT care about who they hire. Second day, the whole POOL smelled like PROPANE GAS. The girl lifeguard brought up how her eyes burn so bad from the gas. MULTIPLE families came up to me asking if their lungs burn and smell this propane gas. I brought it up kindly to the front desk, Roxanne, she threw her hands up in the air, and said the lifeguards are supposed to take care of it. SHE TRIED CALLING THE LIFEGUARDS ON THE WALKY TALKY, nobody answered 4x! She was pissed that I even brought it up. The worst part? The lifeguard manager, some dude with a braid, comes up and tells me it's from the outside grills propane... then he said it's from the Canadian smoke. June last year, the same issue happened to another family, propane gas smell in the pool. HE PROCEEDS TO TELL ME, what do you want me to do?! Shut the whole pool down?!? And he walks AWAY mid conversation. He couldn't even tell me what the smell was, never tested anything, it was so TOXIC. The woman bartender manager listened and she said "just don't swim if it bothers you" HELLO?!? I paid for 2 days to stay here. Wouldn't you be upset if you paid two days and can't swim?! Mind you, there's a photo of the lifeguard manager guy with a braid, posted a year ago, sleeping on the job. They really don't care about this facility. There's no complimentary water at breakfast (she told me to use the sink) and it's all donuts and horrible choices. I would never stay here again. Worst service and I'll be contacting BBB. My poor kids lungs, ruined our night, and I wasn't offered any resolution. I feel super sick from that pool and will be taking higher action. This place needs to be shut down. Oh, and the water slides shredded both of my kids bathing suits into pieces. Both bottoms have huge holes from lack of proper remodeling. I only posted this review because of the toxic gas, the way I was treated. Never ever ever again.

I…read morewent to the main desk around 7:30am to ask when would they be cleared so I could make my way to my car. The lady with the shoulder length hair ( not the one with the short hair who worked overnight, she was really nice) stated someone should be in around 9am. By noon, I noticed nothing was cleared so I went back up to the desk. She stated they had no one to remove the snow from the sidewalks. There was at least a foot of snow and to drag luggage through it would have been a nightmare. So I asked if they had a shovel that I could borrow as my car was backed up to the patio to my room. She stated she did not have a shovel I could borrow, however, I could purchase a shovel and pointed to some shovels for sale near the door. Why would a water park sell shovels to people that rent their hotel suites? Anyway, I smiled and went back to my room. I ended up using the microwave plate to remove as much snow as I could.In order to get to my trunk and get the heck out of there. It took me a couple of weeks to write this review, as i've been staying at other hotels in the area, and i've explained the situation and the other area hotels have looked at me like I was crazy. Never again will I stay here. I come here weekly for work and our business pays for our travel expenses. Would love to know from the management why should we purchase shovels from you in order to clean the sidewalks to access our vehicles?

We were driving through Minocqua on our way to the Apostle Islands and decided to spend the…read moreday/night at AmericInn Minocqua. We had our dog with us, so we needed dog-friendly lodging. We stayed at the AmericInn because of the convenience to the downtown area and they accept dogs in certain rooms. The reason for the one-star rating is: our hotel room carpet was stained, damp feeling, and smelled bad. Our room #116 smelled like Fritos and dirty feet. The carpet throughout the entire hotel, especially on the stairs in the common areas, was dirt colored. We wore our shoes the entire time we were in our room, unless we were in the bed or showering. The whirlpool in our room was unsatisfactory. It looked old and creepy and was in the living room area. The reason we wanted the hotel room with the whirlpool is because we thought the bathroom would be larger, but it was so small that when my husband wanted to close the door to use the bathroom, he had to step into the tub to close the door. The view from our room was the parking lot. When I woke up, I had multiple bites on my legs and waist area. Lastly, the receptionist at the front desk was very friendly and personable, and that was the only good part about my overall experience.

The only downfall was the water pressure was a tad bit light...they exceeded my expectations. Traveler tip: we were able to get a cheaper room using travelocity ($70 cheaper) and most of Minocqua was sold out. If we happen to be in the area again, We'd come back for sure.

You probably already know that this is the cheapest hotel in the area, so if you're reading this…read morereview, you're probably here to find out just how bad it is. The answer: not that bad. Yes, the pool was out-of-order when we were there, and the waffles taste like wet paper towels, and they somehow managed to run out of butter every morning by 8am, but the room was clean! The sheets were clean! The hallway was clean! What more do you want for this price? Surely the name "Quality Inn" is meant to be an ironic indication of what you can expect, like when a diner has a sign announcing "World's Best Cup of Coffee," you can be pretty sure it's awful. Speaking of which, Quality Inn has the world's best cup of coffee. Why the 5-star review? Because I was just looking for a clean bed for a good price, and I got it. I can't afford $300 a night to stay somewhere slightly better. So if it wasn't for this place, I'd be forced to check into one of those sketchy motels across the street that probably have hourly rates.

I was told it was a flat rate and they did not offer discounts. Fine -- I had absolutely no issue with that. Then he pulled up the card reader without telling me the total. I specifically asked what I was being charged, looked at the screen, and saw $199.99. I immediately said, "Whoa, I'm not paying that." Only after I objected did he suddenly offer to take $10 off. I grabbed my bag and told him I would rather sleep in my car. For context, it was around 2:00 a.m. I was only in the area because I have a dying family member in the ICU, and I was simply trying to get about four hours of sleep in an actual bed. I was exhausted and in no mood to argue over a rate that was more than DOUBLE what I had seen advertised online. As I was leaving, he then asked, "What are you willing to pay?" At that point, nothing. The whole interaction felt like a bait-and-switch, and I had completely lost confidence in the business. He then angrily told me I was not allowed to sleep in my car in their parking lot. No problem -- I wasn't planning to. We later learned that this property has the same owner as the AmericInn, so I would recommend using the same caution there as well: confirm the exact total price before handing over your card. I left and took my business elsewhere. If you stay at either property, I strongly recommend confirming the exact total price upfront.
