What guests think

Across many reviews of Independence Stay, guests consistently praise very clean, spacious rooms with comfortable beds and handy kitchenettes, friendly front-desk service, and a convenient location near restaurants and shops, with several noting good value and easy parking.

Multiple reviewers mention nearby train noise at night, though many otherwise found the property quiet. Breakfast is often praised and sometimes accessed via a sister hotel, but a few guests reported no on-site breakfast.

This property was absolutely fantastic and exceeded my expectations. This must have been built recently - everything seemed very new. I rate this high as a solo traveler - this stay has no extra bells and whistles: no pool, no breakfast, no elevator. This is a long-term stay place with large family-size fridge, microwave, stove, pans, utensils, etc. The room was very clean! Bathroom too. Tub is gigantic and deep. The shampoo and conditioner smelled great, not weird. Note that the property is near train tracks - occasionally I heard the train pass by, but it wasn't too bad. I hope this business thrives. If I'm ever back in Marinette, I'm staying here. This is all I need

We really like our stay and the room is really clean. The only thing is since it’s sister hotel with the next hotel Country inn, amenities and free breakfast should have been open to occupants of both establishments. Thanks you.

Terrific property. Roomy, clean, comfortable and great bed. Two things: the remote didn't work so no tv and we missed seeing the football game we checked in early enough to see. Other remotes were offered, but they also did not work. We were offered a handicapped room (the only current vacancy), but didn't feel comfortable taking it in case someone with other abilities needed it. I decided to relax with a bath, but the tub stopper didn't work. Oh well. Would we stay here again? Yes. The good outweighed the disappointment in missing the game and not having a hot bath.

The temperature control unit made noise. We were ok with it but do know some would not be. Coffee maker didn't work. Hubby went next door to sister hotel and got us some Everything else was perfect really like the layout of the room. Spacious has more than what might really need.
