Independence Stay

We didn’t have a car so we were grateful there was a restaurant we could walk to. We came to the UP for a family vacation. We flew in, arriving about 7 PM. The rental car office closes at 5 PM, long before either of the two flights from Chicago arrive. Uber and Lyft just perpetually spun “looking for driver“. We did finally get a hold of a taxi driver who took us back to the airport to pick up our car. The hotel didn’t make it any easier. They said there was nowhere they could store our luggage so that we wouldn’t have to take it back to the airport to pick up our car and they would charge us $25 to check out one hour late. I won’t be coming back to the UP.

Everything was super.clean from the lobby to the room! Staff was polite and efficient. We go up to the UP every year for vacation and we will stay at the Independence from now on everytime. Super impressed with that hotel!

Clean, spacious room and big bathroom.

Big spacious hotel room. Veey happy with it. Like a mini apartment. Very Clean and reasonably priced.

Beautiful rooms, spacious, new, clean, very nice.

Very clean room. There is a good size fridge and a kitchen with a stove top and microwave. I just needed a place to lay my head for a few hours, but it would be great for a longer stay. My check-in was very late but staff made it easy by texting me with simple instructions.

Nice place - staff friendly. Clean rooms. Kitchen space perfect for a quick meal in the room.

Great quiet hotel that’s very nice, great condition, and extremely clean.

Cleanest, quietest hotel I’ve ever stayed at.

Room was very clean and quiet. Bed was comfortable!

Will visit again

King with kitchenette suited us very well. Expended our stay an extra day. Very clean and super friendly staff. Quincy Mine Tour plus explored the Copper Harbor area (Eat at Harbor Haus!) 1st full day. Explored Porcupine Mts. (hiked 3 miles of Escarpment trail) and Bond Falls (most beautiful falls in Michigan!!!) and back in time to enjoy Joey's Seafood...excellent and great prices. Definitely would stay here again!

Very clean, very roomy, and very friendly staff

The staff was very friendly and we loved the larger room

Small hotel, perfectly located to access all of Houghton and especially Michigan Tech.

Our stay in Houghton was fantastic. The hotel was super clean and had very friendly staff. We will definitely be back to stay here.
