This Hotel was once a warehouse and transformed into a Hotel and thought it was cool. This is my second trip to Duluth and what made it special was we met some friends that we cruised with in 2019 before the pandemic and got to hang out with them for the day. They are taking the Viking cruise of the Great Lakes.

When we checked in the guy ran my card and kept telling me it was declined. Turned out he typed in the wrong expiration date. Room was nice, but the bedroom only had one light, and that was a bed side light. Floor lamp would have been nice, as it was dark in the room. Parking was inconvenient having to lug all our stuff across a busy street. Loved having the brewery in the same building and being in walking distance of everything.

For $400 a night the place could have been a bit cleaner. No window view. Not that it’s a Big deal but for $400 a night. No toilet paper, ran out cause only had 1/2 roll for 2 days. Great location
