We got a queen suite. It was a great size for our family. The room was very clean. The staff were friendly. We had an issue with the air quality in our room (someone was smoking in the room and the smoke was getting our room) and the staff was very kind about it and gave us a discount for the inconvenience. Overall, great stay.

Very Clean and Comfortable

The hotel older but the rooms were very clean and smelled good. We brought our puppy Gelato (4) and it was so easy to take her outside to do her business. We stayed after the Labor Day holiday so it was very quiet. The hotel is a short walk to Shepley's ferry ride to Machinac Island. We didn't get to use the pool because we were super lazy but it looked very clean and sanitized. Price was very reasonable and we would definitely stay there again.

Nice quiet hotel right across the street from Shepler’s Ferry and walking distance to several dining options. The hotel was clean and staff helpful and friendly. It seemed like the AC in the halls was out and there were a few small maintenance issues noticeable, but overall a great choice for a short stay.
