The view of the lake was better than expected, and the path to the sandy beach was easy to navigate. Everything in the home worked as expected and plenty cookware is provided. Comfy furniture and chairs, nice use of space. Will do this again in the summer!!

We had dogs that had to be put away when they were there and one of them scratched the door, which I meant to repair with a touch of stain, which is all it needed. They charged to replace the entire door. The sofa had started cracking where people would sit and the owners charged for an entire new sofa. We ended up having to leave with work the owners ended up receiving a months rent with no utilities at all being used and still managed to fabricate other issues to be able to keep the deposit.

My husband and I stayed at The Oliver Inn for a few nights and overall had a very comfortable…read moreexperience. The boutique feel really came through -- the room was well-appointed, clean, and had thoughtful touches that made it feel more personal than a chain hotel. While there wasn't staff onsite, they were easy to reach by phone if needed, which worked fine during my stay. One thing to note is the location. While it was convenient to some attractions during the day, the surrounding area didn't feel the safest in the evening. If you're looking for a cozy, comfortable stay and don't mind limited in-person staffing, this hotel is a nice choice.

We are completely satisfied with our stay at the Oliver Inn. We knew when booking that some rooms…read morewere 'hostel' style and that the property was accessed with codes and such. Even after reading bad, outdated reviews, we decided to give it a go. So glad we did! Snively's lounge on the first floor is cute and pleasant. We enjoyed our 2 for 1 beer credits included with our room. This is a historical building, there will be noise. But, we weren't disrupted. The Rathskeller speakeasy down stairs is too cute. They weren't playing any jazz (which is common I guess) during our stay, which was fine by us. My hubby and I were celebrating our anniversary, and we loved our choices. Parking is simple enough, across the street in a secure ramp for $12 a day. If you read any reviews that there is a stinky Japanese restaurant on site.....that is outdated info. We stayed in room 3, two twin beds, lower level, shared bathrooms (2)....both have showers and we never encountered both being in use at once. Beds were comfy and the bedding was soft. We will definitely be back. Personally, I like no windows; I prefer to sleep in a cave. Lol. The elevator was a nice surprise. I need my knees replaced; stairs are not my friend. Lol.

Rooms are outdated and the staff is unfriendly.

Will never stay here again, too many better options nearby. If you store food in the fridge, beware, and bring your own temp sensor to avoid getting food poisoning

General - I stayed here for a night for work while in the Duluth area…read more Location - You are right on the hill in downtown Duluth within walking distance to Canal Park and downtown's offerings. Parking is included in your stay and is found through a garage on the first floors of the hotel. So if you are staying during an popular event, this might help with parking woes. Rooms & Building - This hotel is a tower so you can get some really great views of the Lake Superior and the harbor or just downtown. Rooms are fairly spacious and include a fridge and microwave. Amenities - Crazy enough for the size of the hotel, there are two pool areas which is nice. I was staying during the week so had no issue finding a cozy spot all to myself in the hot tub on the 8th floor after work. Food - I did not eat or drink here during my stay. Breakfast is not included in your stay (boo) but there is a restaurant onsite that does offer breakfast. I was lucky that they had coffee in the lobby at least. Vibe - Easy going and super friendly staff. No complaints. Reality vs. Online - Pictures that I saw on their website and online matched the quality and condition of the hotel and rooms in-person. No surprises. Price & Final Verdict - If you want to be right in the heart of Duluth and not have to haggle over parking, this location is just right for you. Parking is included which is nice since they could easily charge for being downtown. I enjoyed my stay and would stay again if the price was right!
