The breakfast bar is top notch and fresh too. Wish for honey for the tea but the cinnamon rolls are delicious and coffee great as well. Hot hot tub that's huge and empty at 10pm. And overnight firm mattresses but 2 types of pillows a polyester and a king feather pillow make this hotel experience a positive experience!

Great online platform to capture all the details of our event. We booked DJ services and a photo booth.

Except that equipment and so on takes time and Zayne pointed out that if you stop at 10 outside we would lose a lot of people to the lull. Instead, he was able to rent additional equipment for us, made some good calls on when the timing was right, and made it so smooth our guests transitioned with ease and he definitely kept the dancing going. I would also strongly suggest you let him do his job. We had a mix of Alabama cowboy meets professional woman (in our mid 40s) and everything from pre-teens to 70 somethings and he kept that floor going. Trust him on music, set up and lights. He knows what he's doing. He actually did a better job coordinating timing on everything and can read a room better than the staff did. Highly Highly recommend him!

I was hired to DJ a wedding at the Stearns. But given that the area didn't have a lot of choices for quality lodging, I accepted my fate and booked a room for the night. I was impressed with the history of the hotel. It's been around since the 1800s and most of the original wood and architecture is in tact. Talk with the front desk and have them tell you the story of this Stearns fella who built the place. Pretty rich history here. I didn't interact much with the staff except for the front desk folks. They were very friendly and knew a ton about the area and the hotel. I was there a bit earlier than normal checking because of my role with the wedding, so my room wasn't ready that early; however, they were super willing to get it ready for me early. We just had to wait on the precious guest to check out. So that was cool. It was a reasonably priced and very clean room. Pretty spacious for a queen bed, mini fridge, and microwave. The hotel is within walking distance to everything Ludington has to offer and sits across the street from a historical building with a clock tower remnant of Back to the Future. My favorite part of this hotel, though, was the tiki bar located downstairs and away from the rooms. It felt like everybody in town was there. The crowd was great, the drinks were reasonable, and the music was my cup of tea. Remember, this is a picky DJ who's seen his share of parties. Thank you Stearns for a comfortable stay, an amazing reception venue, and an exciting after party!

BUT the paint is chipping, I can whisper and the neighbors hear next door, the rooms are overwhelmingly small. I feel like an gorilla in such a tiny spot. Bathroom toilet takes forever to circle around the bowl. The tv is quite small with not a lot of channels but that doesn't take away from my experience compared to the others. I think there needs to be free breakfast for the prices they charge especially in a downtown area. I think in a downtown area with many choices for hotels, motels, inns, b&b's this could be better and I hope it can remain respectful to the old but revamp it a little bit
