I had to call to add a night onto our stay and when we went to check in, they did not have my additional night, so they made me pay more for the extra night. I paid 130 for Saturday and for Friday, the hotel charged me more than when I called when adding a night. I was charged 180. Not happy about that. But Orbitz has always been my go to.

Did not have a window to the outside. Just a sliding glass door to a hallway that people walked by. So keep it closed so we were not getting natural light. Think room rate should be cheaper because of the lack of sunlight. Not cool.

Nice river view but uncomfortable beds

Overall an okay stay. They had a very nice breakfast layout with DIY waffles, eggs, sausage gravy with biscuits, and some hot and cold cereal options along with juice, coffee, and tea. The hotel was a little oddly laid out, so hard to figure out at first. But pretty clean, and the pool and hot tub was nice even if the room was unbelievably hot. Our room was clean, although the beds were not very comfortable. In our opinion it was a bit too expensive for the stay quality.

Great place to stay in Cheboygan

Was in Cheboygan to do some scuba diving and needed a clean, comfortable place to stay. The Cheboygan BW is a clean and well-maintained place. The staff always greeted you with a cheery 'hello'. The rooms are spacious with private entrance and a patio/balcony facing the river. The breakfast is adequate for similar places with a waffle maker, instant oatmeal, assorted breads, and rotating hot dishes like eggs and sausage or biscuits and gravy. The pool and hot tub looked great, but I did not have the time to enjoy them. The fitness center was a bit small, but had everything you need. Overall a great place to stay.

Mediocre

The hotel didn’t look much like the photos online. The room was too small for two beds. The bathroom was tiny. Breakfast bar was slim. Waaaay too expensive for a mediocre hotel.

The hotel sits right on the river with all of the rooms facing it. It was nice to be able to sit on the balcony. Room was clean, breakfast was your standard hotel breakfast ; eggs, muffins, waffle machine etc. It’s a pretty good option for a place to stay in Cheboygan.

I had to do work and called about the wifi not connecting and/or it kept dropping. They called me back to say that the IT people said there was nothing wrong. No fix no resolution. The toilet ran all night. We had to lift the cover off and hold the piece to get it to flush. Told front desk when i checked out. They said thats funny no one else complained about that room yesterday. As if I was lying. Hotel is very clean, but the staff need a lesson on customer service. Very freq edible places around the area. Nonetheless it was very clean, just too many issues
