Neat and tidy but would suggest paper towels and disinfectant for tables in breakfast room for personal use since room is not monitored. Definitely a basic stay which met our needs perfectly.

Blue Star Motel was amazing! We stayed in the apartment and it was fabulous to have a full kitchen, coffee maker and nice living area to hang in. Also, the hot tub and fire pit were awesome! We enjoyed all the amenities while being so close to downtown Sagatuck and Douglas, which means endless shopping, wine, art and restaurants! Stay here!
