Summers Inn is a nice motel. The staff at the office and the breakfast area were very nice and polite. The bathroom in the room was small. Which is typical for the older motels. But, it was very clean. Breakfast was handled differently than most motels. You chose what you wanted the night before along with a time to eat the next morning. Worked great in my opinion.

Facility was average overall. Outside around buildings was excellent. Room was average at best. Remodeling needed. Room furniture was cheap and not very usable. Not very flexible for the breakfast provided. Had to have a reservation for the breakfast that was included and make your limited breakfast selection a day in advance. Food was fine though.

Stay @SI in any season

Great customer service! Traveling and needed a place to stay near the SS Badger as part of a longer road trip. Received a call alerting us of the office closing time 9pm CST, how to access room with easy late check-in, and to take our breakfast order. Room was quite cozy and met our basic needs for brief stay. Breakfast was delish, and SI was only minutes away from the dock. Will look to rebook when back in Ludington! (Also recommend eating lunch at The Wharf when docking in Manitowoc)

I loved the home type feeling of this place and was so nice and calm. I was really looking forward to the homemade breakfast. The idea of having the quiche was somewhat I was looking forward too. However, the option to not be able to remove an item such as broccoli or tomato was not very happy about that. I would stay here again if ever in this area again.
