Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Duluth by the Mall
Everything stood out, except I wish they have elevator. As a mom of 18 month old toddler that was a hella workout going up and down with the car seat/stroller and hauling our luggages etc. Overall, it was a great stay.

Pier B Resort
One of the beds in our room had a blood stain on the sheets and a piece of trash under the blanket. I told the front desk about it, and they said they would have someone follow up but they never did. Seriously grossed out and disappointed that they didn’t take this more seriously.
