What guests think

At Villa De Moderne - adoba Inn Charlevoix, reviewers describe a basic, older roadside motel with friendly staff, generally clean rooms, and a convenient, walkable location, while also noting dated decor, spotty maintenance, and occasional cleanliness or noise concerns.

Rooms range from cozy and quiet to worn, with some guests citing old mattresses, poor lighting, and issues like faulty showers, weak air conditioning, or doors that don't latch well. Wi-Fi reliability and in-room supplies (such as shampoo or extra towels) are inconsistent, according to multiple reviews. Expect a no-frills, pet-friendly stay in a convenient spot if you prioritize price and location over modern finishes.

Villa Moderne is a convenient, pet friendly (in certain rooms), smoke free motel. The hosts welcomed us personally. We have stayed here before and each time is pleasant. It’s a way to save money compared to other hotels in the area.

I really did enjoy staying there. There’s just a few things I was not fond of like how it was still kinda dirty, staff needs to have attention to detail. The lady that checked me in was dressed unprofessionally with her chest hanging out. There’s no breakfast lounge or washer n dryer. Besides the little things the place is very cozy, comfortable and the rooms are decorated nicely.

Room was very clean and the staff was quite responsive to our questions/needs. It's an older, nostalgic, roadside inn. The motel does show it's age but served our needs for a close room to sleep in near an event we participated in. New owners are doing some work to fix it up.

If you are looking for a great place to sleep that is quiet but not a lot of frills…this is the place. It was immaculate and the beds were comfortable! The staff were very friendly and accommodating! I would stay here again!

We loved the feel of this retro style motel it seemed very well sound proofed as we heard zero noise from adjoining rooms. The only downside was the carpeting seemed to stick to your feet from improper cleaning/ to much cleaner left in the carpet

Was very impressed with the friendliness of the clerk Gracie and when we ended up running late she accommodated us by opening up our room, turning on the air and light. Room was sparse but very clean and smelled clean. Vintage vibes with the pink tiled bathroom. Beds were a little stiff for me but all in all a good experience.

Said free internet I could NEVER NEVER get on the internet. I had work to do and emails to send. Went to the office for help after they put password in and as soon as I walked out the door the password was gone!!!! They seemed put out that they to help me. But get a rooter that can get the password to stay as we walk out the door!!!! False advertising. WAY OVER PRICED. KEEP LOOKING AROUND AND FIND A BETTER MODERN PLACE TO STAY ITS NOT WORTH THE MONEY. Will not go back!!

There needs to be some updates. The air conditioner did not work very well. Coffee maker didn't work. Pillows were flat. Bed was very very soft. Wifi was not connected to the internet at all. The staff was accommodating and gave me extra towels and a heater for the one cold night.

Property is on the main stretch in Charlevoix. Super noisy could barely sleep. A/C has only a “tornado” speed. It does cool down the room but not recommended to run it while you’re in the room

They let me pick my room! You might notice from the map that the property is right under the landing path for the local airport, but don't let that deter you. This is not LAX or O'Hare. Daytime operations only, or nothing late at night, anyway, and small planes. I barely noticed the few flights. Some of the trucks on Bridge Street were louder. There are several restaurants within easy walking distance, or drive a few blocks on State St. (behind the building) to avoid the traffic on Bridge St., park on State and walk a short block to the main business/tourist area on Bridge St. The open closet area in the room could have used a light to help me see into my suitcase.

Very old property overall and it shows. Bedding OLD and did fit the beds. Curtains didn't cover/ fit the windows. Stayed 2 nights, 2 people with 2 towels & washcloths. Large mirror looked like it was wiped with dirty cloth. Exterior door didnt close properly. Shower was hot but needs a new shower head s I water can get out. Staye on much better motels for half the price. Extremely disappointed

Upon waking on the morning of our stay we found cockroaches by the refrigerator. I contacted Gracie at the front office to inform her and request a refund. She agreed that a refund was appropriate but she had to get approval. She promised to call me back by noon but didn't. I called her and she told me the owners were not available and that they would call me by tomorrow. I am very upset and disappointed at the lack of response. I am requesting a full refund.

This place was not the best … I arrive for check in only to find out that the lady had left and would be back in approximately an hour and a half… I was working so I had a few hours to sleep and now I have to waste an hour and a half waiting around for clerk. She was very nice and understanding when she finally did arrive and understood that I was upset. Try to offer me a make up situation with another room or a dinner but I don’t feel that I would ever stay there again. even for free lol.

Very friendly staff, room was clean and location was walkable to downtown Charlevoix. Room could use updating as there was some peeling paint and the baseboard heaters were rusty, but it worked well for a quick one night stay.

I liked the location, was close to where we were going for a class reunion. Area was close to downtown which made it nice to walk to water and draw bridge. Even just updating the shower head would be a big help.

The owner and staff was very kind and helpful about the area. The room was 'dated' 1950's style, bringing back memories of my childhood when we would go on family vacations 'up north'. Very affordable and the location is in the middle of everything, coffee shop, Culver's, McDonald's, etc., across the road. Very close to the downtown area and Lake Michigan. We really enjoyed the chairs outside each room, making for an enjoyable evening.
