The Crown Choice Hotel and Waterpark used to be the Crown Jewel in Mackinaw City when I was younger. This trip, the front staff didn’t know how to get us to our room except going outside in the rain (we could have taken the stairs in the lobby to second floor and gotten there); the Junior Suite we stayed in wasn’t cleaned when we requested, and there were no utensils provided as they have been prior. The breakfast option is no longer — LOTS of space that is unused or unadvertised sadly and not taken care of! The waterpark that was so beloved has broken faucets (9 that I counted!), the pool and hot tub were not cleaned, and the drain covers were broken, and the sauna is missing a knob so that is out of service for something that is an easy fix. There is so much work to be done during the winter season for the staff to do in order for us to stay again. Also, the breakfast coupons for the Lighthouse Restaurant were NOT accepted; we paid full price for breakfast and had a horrible server. Probably this was my worst experience in MC.

Pool filter was not properly filtering out things floating in the pool. The amount of chlorine in the pool was acceptable, however the water was very cloudy, had a lot of foreign matter floating in the pool and wasn’t the best kept up.

Our room was not as expected. There was mold in the corners of the room and the wall paper was coming off the walls from possible moisure in the room. The bed definitely needed to be replaced and felt like an old camper mattress. Thin, springy, and concaving to the center. Will not be staying again.

Person at the front desk was a bit aloof and expected us to know where our room was and where the pool/waterpark were. The rooms were filthy…mildew all over the bathroom, mold under the kitchenette sink…stains on the ceilings where it looked like a bug was squashed, stains on the covers of the bed and the pillows. Floors were so dirty that the bottoms of our feet turned black. Musty overall smell. Pool/waterpark were ok but very run down. Will not ever stay here again or recommend this place.

Rooms in the 5000's are above the waterpark, so the hallways and rooms are humid, but the a/c works nice in the room, and the mattresses looked new and felt good to sleep on. I had to reboot the cable box, and fully plug in the HDMI cord because the TV had no signal. No breakfast, but they do give out BOGO's for a couple local breakfast joints. Decent for $100/night (2 queen beds).

The lady at desk was very friendly. However, we had a log in the toilet when we arrived. Dirty unmade pullout and missing light bulbs. Made service didnt even replenish all the towels and matts. No coffee or cups left. They made sure to put a tip envelope front and center after they left. Mackinaw has turned into a scam. Dirty and unpleasant. Foods is horrible. For anything worth the money, you have to trvel at least 20 minutes away. Save your money and got to Traverse City. Better a one day trip to island and drive in hour to a place worthy of your money
