Staff was quick to change room so that we could be near the other party in our group. Very friendly. Cable TV went out but I doubt that was the fault of the motel as everyone's went out. We enjoyed our stay.

This motel did not disappoint. The reviews were amazing online when I was looking at a place after coming to Ludington on the SS Badger. The price was far lower than others in the area. It is the quaint Mom & Pop Hotel with basic amenities, but it was extremely clean and well-maintained. The owner was always checking on things around the property, and everything was truly spot on. I definitely recommend it if you are in Lundington.
