Waterbird Lakeside Inn

Waterbird Lakeside Inn

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is a little older, but the room was super clean and large. We loved watching the turtles and the geese from the balcony! The parking was also convenient."

Blue Chip Casino Hotel and Spa

Blue Chip Casino Hotel and Spa

8/10 Good
"Arriving at the hotel Lisa at the front desk was very welcoming. So many guests were there due to the recent power outage from the tornado, and Lisa made the check-in process very smooth. The two queen beds are very spacious for a family of four. The only disappointment was when asked for more face towels and dry off towels we were told that it was a limit. My husband explained that it was only two towels of each in the room so we should at least get four towels for each guest that is booked in the room and then we were given an extra two towels."

"The breakfast was great and we enjoyed the lake view. Didn’t get a chance to do much else because of the storm and the loss of electricity. That was the only reason we left early. We would definitely stay there again."

"Good value for this hotel. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Breakfast included scrambled eggs and sausage as well as waffles and cold items. Not too far of I-94 so it was much less expensive to stay in Michigan City than closer to Chicago."

OYO Hotel Portage I-94

OYO Hotel Portage I-94

8/10 Good
"The OYO is a very functional property for the price. The property is oriented so the road noise was not intrusive, at least in my assigned room. The room was serviced daily and items functioned as designed, with the refrigerator able to keep ice cold. There were extra blankets on a shelf. The ice maker on the second floor did not work, but there was one working on the first floor. They include a minimal breakfast of cereal or yogurt, sticky bun, and/or a banana. There were two towels that were very thin. Plenty of hot water, although the control was confusing and much water went down into the tub portion. Illumination was via lamp rather than can lighting. Good parking. I saw but did not use guest laundry. AC worked well and beds were fine. I did not use the TV. The hotel is within reasonable driving distance of businesses in town, and for my purposes, sections of the national park. If you are on a budget and want an adequate hotel, the OYO is a good choice. It could be improved by servicing the ice machines, wasting less water in the shower, and perhaps bigger towels."
