I have been to the Sandpiper Inn a few times with my family to visit the marina and have like my stay there. The Sandpiper Inn is no longer the name and has changed to the Sun Inn. When I arrived I was told of the name change and also the new owner and new management of the hotel. As... More

This place was so filthy I ended up checking out the first night i was there. Cockroaches everywhere. Very unfriendly staff. Almost to the point of harassment.. Plenty of other hotels close that offer a clean cockroach free room. More

The price was great and it is very close to the marina and the Wisconsin border. If you are looking for a no frills place to sleep, this is it. I was told it had WiFi but I did not have my laptop. They did have HBO This was one of the oddest motel experiences I have had. Not a... More

I have stayed at many different hotels throughout the country, and, indeed, the world. This is, without question, the absolute WORST hotel I've ever experienced, and I will NEVER set foot in it again. This used to be a nice, friendly place, with clean, comfortable rooms and a friendly staff. NO MORE. Now it's run by people who barely speak... More

Sandpiper Inn is a must stay. We have family in IL and stay at the hotel each year, for the past 3 years. Our recent trip we notice its under new management and the staff is very friendly (they make you feel like family), and the rooms are amazingly clean. The room prices are the best prices possible, this time... More

It has been 4 years and 7 months since I was at the Sandpiper with my Mother. She was a cancer patient and we enjoyed staying at the Sandpiper, everyone was so nice to us. I miss everyone there and most of all I miss my Mother. She passed away on 3-14-05. If I ever have to go to Midwestern... More

I visited Winthrop harbor for cancer treatment center. We rented a room at Sandpiper Inn and we will for rest of our trips. Hotel staff is so co-operative, loving and kind. They know how to treat individual. Very cozy place. Regarding property, they have remodelled the property so one would like it. We love this place. More

Bad, and when I say bad, it's the worst!!! The best part of the whole experience was seeing their sign in the rear view mirror. They should have charged by the hour. Unless your life depends on it, AVOID AT ALL COSTS! More
