Disaster Area
The Sturgis Knights Inn is a total disaster (Similar to Katrina Hurricane) area as of 8-17-2006.
The pictures (30-40 years old) on the internet of the motel are completely misleading because the
outside and Inside are not in agreement at all. The building (outside and inside) has not been
painted in years. There three entrance and exit have broken doors pumps thus anyone and or
critters could enter the building. Several screens broken and several rods hanging in windows.
There were many shingles missing from roof, thank mother nature it did not rain while we were there unfortunately, it has rain on other people because the rooms smelled very bad of mildew.
There were no lights on in the parking lot
very scary. Also, several construction and truckers
watching us while unloading luggage
extremely uncomfortable. The motel room door locks
were installed with residential locks versus commercial locks
unsecured. Once we were
established in the room I barricaded the door with a chair and slept with one eye opened all night.
The sofa pillows were all ripped and smelled. There were 5 unwrapped roll ends of toilet tissue
supplied, which we did not use. At the foot of the bed was bloodstains and no blankets provide unbelievable We did not drink water from faucet (drank bottle water) nor did we take
a shower tub was orange - unsanitary. The TV remote did not work because no batteries. The
pool was out of order, however, I noticed comments from other customers that the pool was not
available earlier in the year and last year as well. I highly recommend not staying here unless
your looking for the worst motel in the U.S.A. Its obvious the management has not invested any
monies for maintenance and improvement in many years. I cant believe the state of Michigan has
not closed down this so called business yet. Shipshewana, IN is a nice town to visit not the Sturgis,
MI Knights Inn. We had two other couples with us that have the same opinion about this motel. This
motel is a truck and motorcycle stop. Do yourself a favor dont bring your wife and family here. Harry
