we really didn't have a terrible nor great experience...have stayed in a lot worse @ the last minute when truly road weary! and you get to wake up in the morning, walk across the street and see/hear lake erie's waves. the bed was made sloppily, there was no blanket, just a cheap bedspread...overall--a LITTLE gross, but not so bad! and...

The sheets were dirty, big black hairs all over them...and i do not have long black hair! brown streaks on the sheets... not... More

Charming? Not. Possible blood on my pillow that was not mine...we were afraid to get naked..I felt dirtier after the shower...the continental breakfast was one box of tasty cake doughnuts to be shared amongst 24 rooms. These were the positives of the place. Check under your bed for a body before spending the night. A family of raccoons would be... More

Dump is an understatement, it should have the board of health close it down is more of a reality. Online & over the phone we were promised the King cabin for 4 days from 8/12 thru 8/15, however upon arrival were told we would have a double room that you could barely get around the bed to the bath. Non... More

Shower knob fell off while in the shower.Shower would not drain and toilet was cracked and leaked on the floor. Could not go in the... More

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL!!!!!! We paid $125.00 for one night. We were booked for 2 nights but after seeing the "deluxe cottage" we told the manager it was dirty and unacceptable and we wouldn't pay to stay another night. I was appalled at how dirty it was. The bed had sheets with holes and threadbare to say the... More

This motel is by far the worst place we have ever seen. We made last minute plans for a weekend getaway to Geneva on the Lake. After receiving an email from the owner telling us he had a "deluxe king room" available we made a reservation for Friday and Saturday nights. The room was filthy. The bed was dirty, old... More

We made last minute plans for a weekend getaway to Geneva-on-the-Lake. This was our first visit and availability was limited. Most lodging properties don't have web sites so researching a motel is difficult. I sent an email request to the Northwind Motel and the owner replied that they had a "deluxe king room" available. We reserved the room. OMG -... More

When we first arrived at the North Wind Motel I was not expecting anything fancy, but I was not expecting to see what an atrocity that I did see. My fiancé and I's room smelled musty and nasty like a really old house that had't been lived in for years. Our towels had black markings on them and the bed... More

You're better off staying at the "Bates Motel". When you pay $80.00 you don't expect a lot but this room was awful. First thing we saw as we walked in was the chair that had two big chunks taken out of it. The over all room was very small. As we sat down to figure out which wineries to go... More
