I guess I should have read the description more closely. This was an embarassment. Absolutely no staff. Had an envelope with a key in it. This was at 4 in the afternoon. Small rooms. clean but felt uncared for. Right on the main drag.

Traverse Bay Inn is reasonably priced, very clean and updated. We would not hesitate to stay here again.
Nice room with small living/kitchen area separate from bedroom. Kitchen had a full size fridge and small stove/oven (which we couldn't get to work for some reason) small microwave, coffee maker, toaster. Bed comfort was ok. Overall a good value.
Very quaint, apartment-like hotel. Fully equipped kitchen with an oven, microwave, and fridge--even came with ice in the freezer in little cube trays! My only complaint was that the bathtub faucet wouldn't stop dripping the whole stay (very minor issue). Otherwise very clean, comfortable (beds were overly firm though) and cozy. Would recommend!
Second time staying here and enjoyed it again. Heated outdoor pool is great, the 2 level family suites are great woth everything you need. A Walgreens and burger king are walking distance and the free bus for the Bay is across the road which is awesome. We'll be back again.
Located on a busy road across from bay- need to travel for beach access.
Washroom and sofa needs upgrade. It was loud with neighbors outside and in next door unit- you can hear everything. No staff prior to checking or after sunset.
They have a pool and queen suites have equipped kitchen and many beds with closets.
