Beds are very comfortable after a long day on the bike, along with nice hot showers. Each morning they had hot coffee and some sweet treats waiting for us in the lobby. Anna loves to bake little goodies to be sure we head out with a little food in our stomachs. We even found towels out near the bikes in the morning for us to wipe the bugs and grime from the previous day. Roman knows how some us like to have the bikes shining before we head out each day. Roman and Anna and very pleasant, and don't forget to say hi to their dog Rugey. If you're looking for a nice place to stay minutes from Minoqua check out the Arbor Vitae Motel. Right in the heart of fishing and snowmobiling country we came across them by accident 8yrs ago and now make it our annual home away from home in the north woods. Bill E. DP-IL

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. Because it's condos almost all the rooms have a small full kitchen, though it's not well stocked. Small conveniences like a vase for flowers would be helpful.

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.

Booked a room online using the Grand Stay website. When we arrived, we were told our room rate…read morewould be higher because of our dog and that there was an additional fee on top of the higher room rate. We totally understand additional rates and/or fees for pets but nowhere in the online booking process was there any option for pet rooms being available or an additional fee for pets. The front desk clerk was initially unwilling to honor our original booking but after we pushed back several times and after contacting the owner, she finally honored the rate we booked but charged us the pet fees. Room was clean but a few dead bugs in the bathroom. The security lock on the back door of the hotel was completely gone so anyone had access to the building. Lots of broken down equipment, old refrigerators, etc, sitting around the property outside. Would not likely stay here again.

Over all, we really liked this place. Would definitely stay there again.

Pros: Clean, front desk personnel were nice, easy access. Price. Cons: 1. THE BED. We didn't sleep much either night because the bed is hard, and slopes into the center badly. 2. The actual building. When checking in if you look down the hall it's very evident the floor is sloped/bowing... makes me wonder if a building indirect needs to check it out for safety. I mean the center of this building is literally sinking into the ground?? 3. The electrical outlets have cheap 4-5 plug multipliers in them. So the fridge, microwave, tv and lamp were all plugged into the same outlet. Just seemed questionable to me.

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.

There was old food still in the garbage cans. I went to the front desk and they said they only clean upon request, so I requested they clean. They said "every day?" like it was unusual to expect my garbage taken out or towels replaced. I said, okay, every other day is fine. They cleaned only once in the five nights and six days I was there. I had to take my own garbage out, so my room didn't stink of old food. I won't stay here again, and probably never at another AmericInn, either.
