Very nice hotel. We certainly stay at this property again when we are in Houghton. One minor complaint.... The cable tv for the hotel does not offer PBS or CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Company) like other hotels/ B&B in the area. PBS and CBC are the only TV that we watch. We were able to watch PBS on our computers.
