Loved the style and aesthetic. Affordable in the off season. Loved the kitchenette although I didn’t use it. Beds were comfy it’s just very loud. Walls are thin and my neighbor was loud at 5am when they were packing up to check out.

Affordable stay in Door County

Motel 57 is a pefect place to stay if you want a simple, affordable stay. It has a kitchenette, which is a fantastic plus. It's only drawback (to some) is the courtyard layout, which means if people are gathered outside grilling out or congregating it can be a little noisy, since all the rooms directly face it. Not terrible, but something to be conscious of when booking.

Staff was nice. It was a super cute property. I really liked that it was lit up a lot at night. I also liked that they had a few dishes in the kitchen. The deadbolt on our door stopped working properly. Luckily we had another door we could go in and out of before we were able to fix it enough to get the door open. Called the front desk and were told they would get to it eventually so we were unable to use it while we were there.

Cute place!

We were there for just a short stop, mostly to sleep. Super cute place, definitely stands out from the road. The only "complaint" from my child was about the cool bathroom floor in the morning - welcome to Wisconsin winters, my child. :)
