This is an old mote building, but the managers have made many upgrades, and it is in good repair. The pool and spa area was well kept, clean with no mildew. The room was spacious for a motel of this type. It was very clean, no old motel smells. I recommend.

The motel is a bit dated. I loved the shower head but the floor on the tub was dirty or stained. There was a used towel from a previous guest hanging on the back of the bathroom door. I just added it to my dirty towels. The only thing that would really keep me from staying here again would be the old terribly uncomfortable mattress. Popping spring and you could feel being drawn to the side everyone sleeps on. Sleep was difficult.

A great quaint little motel. Rooms are clean and the owners were very nice and accommodating. It’s not a fancy Hilton but neither is the price. 10/10 recommend. An added perk is if you are using Sheplers to go to the island they will pick you up in front of the motel at no cost.

Very clean and comfortable basic hotel room. Hot tub and pool were very nice. We really enjoyed staying here. Right across from the beach/mackinaw bridge and easy walking distance to a bunch of restaurants and shops. Would absolutely stay again.

Nice motel. I booked a small room since I was traveling solo and it was small but clean and the bed was comfortable. Not fancy but I'd stay there again.

Check-in is fast. Room is reasonably large and comfortable. Fixtures are somewhat dated but acceptable. It is close to the waterfront, where you can see a beautiful sunset under the Mackinac Bridge and a night full of stars. Walking to the Mackinac Island ferry takes about 10 mins and the main area is pretty close as well.

Great view and good value

Great views of the mighty Mackinac Bridge, Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse, Alexander Henry Park from the property. We stayed on the second floor, so the view from balcony in front of our door was stunning, especially at night. The property is older and smaller than the few national hotel chain options in the area, but also noticeably less expensive. Stayed here for the Mackinac Bridge Swim that starts across the street, and I would stay here again. Great location & view, and the price is hard to beat for Mackinaw City.
