There are LOT of problems with this hotel. I wouldn’t recommend staying here. I had booked a deluxe room (higher price) but the property gave me a standard room (basic room). The manager gave me the reason that they were fully booked and kept insisting that the standard room was the deluxe room. They never upgraded me the actual booked room but I was able to get this sorted out via Orbitz. The property and room is itself unclean. The room phone doesn’t work. If you need anything, you have to walk all the way to a different building to get to the reception or request for anything. For extra towels and pillows they asked for number of people in the room which I have never experienced in any hotel. They have mentioned to provide beach towels but that never came through due to unavailability. The comforter had blood stains on them. The carpet wasn’t clean. When pointing these things out they just say that the room was cleaned before handing over the keys. The entire experience was horrible with them.

The ad leads you to believe lakeside. But they were putting us in courtside, outside enrances. Had to pay more to get lakeside. We had four rooms in our party. One did not have a microwave. Breakfast ended at 9 am. No coffee left after. Just rolls, an apple with rot spot, for breakfast. Girl at check out did not even bother to get out of her chair. Looks like it was once a really nice place but needs paint touch up, etc. Room was really nice.

We got to our room and the air conditioner was not working blowing out heat. They came and looked at it. And they got us a different room. The first room had a microwave. The second room did not. Like the patio and had a good view.

A room with a view

We had a room with a view. We were there for just one night. Wish we would have stayed a few days more. We sat on the balcony and enjoyed the water and the Mackinac bridge all lit up. The sunrise was breathtaking. They had fire pits available but we arrived too late to enjoy them. There is no breakfast but they give you a coupon for a hotel restaurant, buy 1 get 1 free. It is still pricey (for breakfast) with the coupon. Parking was an issue. There was limited space.

Pool was not cleaned at all. Towels were left in the pool room for well over 24 hours without being picked up. The hot tub was full of sand and also looked like it had not been cleaned in some time. The pool is one of the main reasons we booked this hotel. The elevator quit working the first day and the same items on the floor the whole time. Just wasn’t want we were expecting from the pictures that were online. Now our room was clean the first shift worker was very friendly and helpful.

When we got to our room, the balcony over looking the water was covered in bugs outside. So we couldn't enjoy sitting outside. And when we came in latwr, pur front door was swarming with some kind of bugs. We could barely get in the room and when we did it let the bugs in. So we spent alot of time killing the bugs. And the pool area looked like something from a horror movie.

The location is in walking distance of many shops, activities and the Arnold ferry service which I highly recommended using if you are heading to Mackinac.The room was comfortable, linens were clean as was the bathroom. Do not rely on the breakfast. Coffee was hit and miss when available. Food items were minimal, prepackaged granola bars and muffins. It’s a shame the dining area was closed as this is a missed opportunity for the hotel. Remember this is right near the water so yes there are birds and bugs flying around. The fireworks on Saturday night was an unexpected surprise. I recommend : Icebreaker Mackinaw Maritime Museum. Being able to tour a retired Coast Guard ship was awesome. Go further north for even more places showcasing the Coast Guard! Old Mackinac Point Lighthouse Headlands International Dark Sky park Mackinac Island - you will need multiple days just for this The Hook restaurant in Mackinaw isn’t worth what you pay. The food was cooked good but all three meals at the table were under seasoned. Toast to go go has a decent breakfast buffet. Make sure to grab a coupon from the front desk for a buy one get one free. Murray Hotel on Makinac has a restaurant that has quick and delicious food. Their burritos are amazing. Take it to go and sit in the park and enjoy the atmosphere. A little further North to Penny’s Kitchen in Sault Ste Marie. They have a great breakfast!! While you are there visit some local shops, Soo Locks and even take a boat tour.

I have stayed in the past in the lake view rooms which were recently remodeled and beautiful. I assumed all were the same. Stayed in a room that was not lake view and it was not so pleasant. Things were dirty and needed updating. Very little soundproofing. The people upstairs were loud and could hear neighbors as well. Staff are super friendly and helpful.

This property was disgusting. The rooms were smelly and hot. There was dirt IN one of the beds though we were told it was just cleaned. Dirt on comforter and towels. The carpet had many stains. The deck hasn’t been painted or cleaned in who knows how long - the chairs were filthy and bugs covered the area. This is also really far down from town. The only good thing was the person working. He was so nice.

Stay if you are not too picky

Staff were not trained properly to give us appropriate information on room cleaning or check out and other instructions. Example we checked out at 6 am and the lobby was closed with phone number and after taking she said drop it to next door and there were no doors next door or any additional information. So we had return to our rooms to drop off our key.
