Accommodations were excellent, and the facility was convenient to places we wished to visit. Parking in the hotel lot was a bit snug, but otherwise fine, since we always were able to find a parking spot.

We enjoyed staying in this quiet location across the street from a park on the lakeside. It was a few blocks of a scenic walk to restaurants and other shops.

The room was spacious; the only issue with cleanliness, was the floor not being swept. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. The area was exceptionally close to all the shops and restaurants. I would definitely stay there again.

Needs comfortable beds and linens. There were ceiling stains in both the bedding area and bathroom. The room was dark and had a musty odor, I assume they are closed down during the winter month's and that causes the odor? Noticed all the vacant rooms had the windows open as was ours when we arrived. Room had Microwave and small frig and a good TV. We had an upgraded room ( view) don't bother, your a ways from the lake across two one way streets and the the trees in the park block most of the view, but an easy walk.You can see the parking lot very well. Desk attendent was nice and courteous. I will stay at a different property next trip. Just a note, one family in Mackinaw owns the majority of all the motels and even some restaurants. Not sure if this was one?

Great Location very nice staff. Owners on top of things. Air conditioners didn't work very well and beds were very uncomfortable and bathroom exhaust was very loud. Parking lot tight fit. But Kevin one of the employees there so kind and greeted us with a smile. Don't find that much anymore...

The Hotel was clean, however the room was small and there was no gym or breakfast. The location was nice just off the hwy but if I was in tow again I would probably look for something else.

A real nice property in a great location. The bed wasn't the most comfortable, but overall was a good value for the price.
