As an 80 year old, I found having to us an outdoor stairwell was somewhat cumbersome. Also having to go to the neighboring motel for our breakfast was unusual and the pancakes and eggs were not warm. I search for Comfort Inns as my previous experiences have been very good. Not this time

It’s a nice hotel. The room was very clean. I could smell the cleaning products when I opened the door. The Lakeview room was nice. The one thing I didn’t like was the breakfast area. It’s self serve and people had kids in there touching the food etc. I ended up not eating. I went across to a restaurant to eat. I’d suggest having staff serve the food. I was grossed out by someone’s kid touching the pancakes and licking their hand

Close to downtown. Has a nice beach right behind it. The one pool ladder had a broken ring that spun around and it felt quite hazardous to use. Otherwise the pool area was clean and the whirlpool worked well. Access to the beach was through a short enclosed corridor that was dirty and scary.. Room was dark and air conditioner was loud!

Property was close to town and had a nice view. One thing I did not like- our smoke alarm started beeping in the early morning because the battery was dead. I had to get up and disconnect it and then pull the battery out. Very annoying. When I checked out later that day, I brought the smoke alarm to the front desk and explained what happened. No apology, no nothing. Just took the alarm from me and said "Thanks!" The property could certainly use some maintenance. The room was clean as well as the linens.

This hotel is nicely located right in the beach. The only issue we had was their "elevator" was in the next connecting hotel as well as the free breakfast-on the third floor.

While this property needs updating, it is convenient, comfortable, safe, and a very friendly staff. This property is close to everything in Mackinaw City. Breakfast is included in the hotel next door. Pool was a plus. Would stay there again.

Property was clean could use some updates lots of cobwebs everywhere. The property has a walkway to the beach which was a disaster, dirty and abandoned. It looked like it was a place maybe they use to serve continental breakfast but they did nothing with it. They could clean it up take the doors off and make it a breezeway or something. We didn’t like that the lobby was closed and no one was there till 7am and we had to go to next hotel for coffee and breakfast The private beach could use some maintenance and organizing the tables and chairs as well as the little picnic area (deck) with tables was full of spiders and cobwebs. All in all was a convenient place to stay for the downtown area quick walk to everywhere the staff (cleaning people) were very pleasant and helpful when we needed supplies
