Expensive but what was left for hotels in the area. Clean enough for a motel, but kind of small.

Older facility, sandwiched between two other older facilities. Served the purpose for an overnight stay.
It was clean, no frills, reasonable price if you just need a bed and a shower.

Do not go here! It looks like it’s deserted and run down to the point we wouldn’t even get out of the car. The pool looked liked it was closed up and deserted.i did not feel comfortable staying here and they refused to refund me. There wasn’t even an office on the property! Do not waste your money!!

The management is excellent. We had issues with our air conditioning. They were not able to fix the issue but allotted a different room all the while being extremely polite.

3.0 / 5.0
It was clean and right off interstate but far enough that didn't have traffic noise. Prices for food nearby was expensive
4.0 / 5.0
Quiet while providing the basics. It's clean and easy to access. No continental breakfast or or beach access like the larger chains but the price is less than half. If you're just looking for a place to sleep, this is a good option.

I was charged 55. For my dog yet on the website it said nothing about extra charges for dogs. That amount is ridiculous !!!

4.0 / 5.0
Clean and reasonably priced. Hot Tub was drained, though, which was a bummer. Inside and outside pools were nice. Would definitely stay again.
2.5 / 5.0
This was an amazing find for the price. We stayed only one night on our Roadtrip to Niagara Falls. While the outside of the motel is dated and showing weathered. The rooms are some of the cleanest I have seen and I have seen a lot of hotel/motel rooms. You can tell that they have done some updating such as new linens, the softest hotel towels I’ve ever had, new tub/shower surround. Beds were comfy but pillows were a bit small but luckily we brought our own. Furniture a bit dated but in really good shape. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
1.5 / 5.0
It was ok. Too expensive for the level of accommodations.

Everything was good except the outside pool was green/dirty and the hot tub had no water/unusable.
1.0 / 5.0
we got there to check in and they said the room wasn’t ready, so we just went to Mackinac. We came back in an hour like he said, and the room still wasn’t ready. I waited in the car while my boyfriend was getting to check in and the cleaning lady had a horrible attitude about cleaning the room. They ended up giving us a different room, and there was a hole in the ceiling from water damage and mold, starting to form
. for one night It was not terrible though.

1.0 / 5.0
Arrived late, full parking, for 2-nights, our first night spend in overwhelmingly mold-smelling room, w/ice-blocked freezer, dirty entrance door by the lock. 2 friends slept in one bed, because the second bed contained used sheets. Office's 300yd away in neighboring building, refused early checkout- offered a move...to smallest room I ever seen (my closet size) single-bed with one-foot-around, one chair, tiny round table all-occupied by microwave, and leaking toilet.
At 1 AM someone's radio ON was "brainwashing" through out hotel square with 40 rooms, until dawn! In the morning wanted to share my concerns w/attendant, but quickly changed my mind, noticing his pinky face and other's naked legs up behind the counter!! There's no owner - no honor in this barracks!

Customer service was awesome!!
3.0 / 5.0
Got to stay and vacation with my dog but even though advertised there is no pet sitting services, checking in is a pain because you have to go to a different property to check in. There was a gap under our door so mosquitoes got in. Bad experience with night staff just trying to obtain toilet paper. Day staff and housekeeping is great. Beds are like sleeping on a trampoline, fridges are super small. Air conditioners didn't work and didn't get cold.there is no breakfast. The rooms are very spacious.
