This looks like a great spot for any kind of event old school wood on the doors thats the way it should be not the little cheap paper mache doors they have now. Love the chandeliers.

Nice size Ballroom thats a good location to host events. The place is a reasonable size, not very large, but not tiny neither. I do agree with others that it can get a bit hot in there when there are lots of guests, and I also agree that the restrooms could use a little more care to them.Overall, I enjoy my time here whenever there are events going on for friends and family. I would definitely consider hosting an event of my own in the future here.

Had a party booked for 70+ guests for an end of the year department celebration. Was incredibly disappointed when they cancelled our event the day of which completely inconvenienced my guests, caterers, and rental decorations which were all non-refundable. I would NOT recommend this banquet hall for any function for the fear of them canceling and ruining an event that takes weeks to prepare for. Pay the extra dollar for a reliable hall.

Good place to have a party or any event. They have a kitchen & bar I believe there employees serve the food & alcohol. Men & women bathrooms & changing rooms in the lower level. Plenty of room for dancing. Parking is very limited they have a small parking lot so you might have to park on the main street.

Decent set up. There are some quirks to the building and management. Some things such as the decor need some sprucing up. The ballroom is very large and impressive. The stage is very customizable and the dance floor is very roomy. The kitchen/prep area is a very nice size. Unloading materials directly from the alley is a huge plus, but the back door needs a rug for when its snowy outside the tile gets very, very slick.Overall, I was impressed and definitely will keep them in mind for future parties. Theyre easily located and have lots of parking (2 lots).

Unfortunately I live next door. This place is very disrespectful of its neighbors and do very little to clean up the messes of its patrons. Despite having a parking lot, it does nothing to enforce its patrons from blocking driveways/exits. I have been trapped in my garage on multiple occasions. The amount of garbage left behind is disgusting.As the owner mentioned, it would make sense to call them and inform them of an issue.... which I have done- numerous times. If only someone over there knew how to answer a phone. This ridiculous google review was a last resort after the phone rang for 10+ minutes with no answer (multiple attempts)Next time, I will do as he said and simply phone the police so they can handle the situation.Check out their YELP reviews. Tales of creepy (male) security guards entering the women’s bathroom to better “watch” the situation.

The hall is medium size, very elegant for a small event, has two locations for guest to use washroom, a spare room for head of party to get ready, and the hall provides a child care(with a cost).

Good size. Tables & chairs not crowded. The single bathrm. was the only problem. No lock on door, makes it awkward walking in on a person using toilet.

Review №23

I got married her on May 28, 2016. Everything was perfect except for when the security guard kept announcing that someone was blocking a white navigator but never said who. Someone was towed during my wedding, however, since that white navigator was not part of my wedding and the security guard messed up, Michelles reimbursed the owner of the towed vehicle.The dance floor is huge and the bartenders were awesome! The babysitter sat on her phone all night, lol. But my husband and I had a fantastic night! And I got my deposit back within a week. Well done, Michelles.

The owner is very rude. And di disrespectful. I cant believe he does business with that attitude. I understand being old but thats ridiculous to call a grown man an idiot for stupid is very childish. Seems like he has money and he could say anything to anybody. We already have one of them Donald Trump sucks have a great day

Attended a wedding here. It was small, but the room held about 20+ tables and had a dance floor for about 40-75 people. Bar area was off to the die of the room as were bathrooms. Only issue I could see is parking, but for the city it was better than most.

This is an almost year old review but thought it is still necessary to post... Wedding reception September 2018.... HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE! Summary... Cold food being portioned onto plates from containers sitting on the floor... No stove, hot boxes were not keeping food warm, so they start microwaving food.Owner/Management VERY RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL....Used 1 plate of food to explain a point to us about why cold... mixed food around, picked a fork full of food up and asked us to touch it, cut into the chicken on the plate and THEN put that same plate on a tray to be served to my family....OVERPRICED....and wait.... You can only have 1 of 2 types of salad dressing on the table.... if you want the other dressing, we were told to borrow it from another table.... I mean dayum its a gravy boat of dressing not an entire bottle... think they could offer the 2 dressings on EACH table.BEWARE... DO NOT RENT THIS PLACE.... LASTLY THE OWNER MADE THE BRIDE CRY!!!! JUST SO OVER THIS PLACE....Update: this was Michelles Ballroom caterer, not ours....try again! Why would the owner be explaining to us why the food was cold if it was our caterer.... LIES LIES LIES! The owner who I talk to told me about the salad dressing and tried to explain why food was cold.... I agree it was a caterer but it was your people that catered it. They did explain that the food was cooked elsewhere and brought in... the owner and I got into it about your staff being rude to my family.... guess that was our servers too.... Grow up and own your dayum mistakes.... my issue is with the owner insecure azz.

Very nice place to host your event. You wouldnt think that its nice by the way it looks on the outside. Not a large place, but just right for medium to small events.
