Rooms were really nice (especially the shower!) and the food/drink amenities were great as well. Location is perfect for exploring Marquette, as it’s right in the downtown area and just a couple blocks from the waterfront and Washington Street (the Main Street of downtown). Would absolutely stay there again!

We had a wonderful stay at EXPLORE! The location was excellent, within walking distance to plenty of restaurants and sites and both the room and staff were outstanding. There quite a few special touches such as cookies to greet us and wonderful, tasty local coffee grounds for making coffee in the morning!!!
