Great little older motel. Well maintained and very clean. Great location. Parking is quite tight ( a little tough for a big truck). Staff was wonderful. Plan on returning some day.

Room was very dated. It was small. Tub was stained black and there was a hair in the sink when we arrived. Nice area with a park across the street. Bed was comfortable and it was quiet. It met our needs but wasn't kept up like we expected.

Room was very spacious and clean. We were on the 2nd floor which wasn’t awful even with a baby and 2 year old. Everything was very walkable. We never moved our car after getting there. We absolutely loved staying here and would definitely come back when visiting Mackinac Island again!!!

We were supposed to have a Queen bed and it was a double. Manager argued with me about it. Room smelled strongly for fragrance and was very outdated. Bedding was old and room was damp.

We were able to get our room keys early to accommodate our plans for the day and the staff was very friendly and offered great suggestions for places to eat and coupons. The room was nice and the beds were comfortable too. Overall a great experience.

We stayed from Thurs July 3-Sun July 6. The entire time we were here we had ants in our room. I told the front desk (owners) about it daily. I was told everyday that they would take care of it and spray for them. They continued to come back. When we returned to our room on Sat rhe room was covered in ants. They ruined $50 worth of fudge that came from the island. The owner refunded the amount of the fudge that was ruined but that was it. My child was very uncomfortable staying in this room with the ants. Also door was not properly on correct so there was a gap at the bottom corner

Good location, outdated but clean. However buyer beware. When we checked in we were told we would have to pay more because they needed the rooms I booked. Felt like a scam. Lesson learned in the future will make sure I copy down the price offered.
