Seasons Inn Traverse City

Seasons Inn Traverse City

10/10 Excellent
"Be aware: The front desk has limited hours. They close at midnight. We needed a late check-in due to our travel. I am glad we called ahead to notify them or else we would have lost our room. The front desk closes at midnight - we were arriving around 12:20. I called ahead and the gentleman was accommodating and waited for us, for which we were VERY thankful. Our room was very clean, and the beds were comfy. Shower drained a little slow, but that is my only negative. Fantastic customer service, as they stayed late to wait for us to arrive."
