The staff was wonderful! Room was great however it did need some maintenance on doors that wouldn’t shut and carpet cleaning. The website said it had continental breakfast and slot machines which neither were found and no information was given by staff or anything in the room. We were traveling with 3 children under 4 and the breakfast would have been much better than having to take them out to eat. I’m glad I wasn’t paying the weekend rates.

The front desk person when we checked in was no accommodating, we got there @ 4:30 & our room wasn’t ready she told us to come back at five. We came back at 5:30 still wasn’t done. We had a couple of very little kids that needed to rest. My daughter talked with her finally she got in around 6 but she said we’d have to move rooms the next day. I asked to talk to a manager later on because we had several little kids moving would be a pain. The manager the next day said we could stay in that room. I was pleased with that.! 👍 Other than that, the property was nice. We had a good time.

My family stayed at the Crown Choice for 2 days for our 25th wedding anniversary and it was a first time for our children now young adults to Visit Mackinaw Island, It overall was a good investment, while it does need some up dating it was clean and the staff offset the small inconveniences by leaps and bounds-Extremely Friendly and very curious, they displayed openly they truly cared that you enjoyed your visit. I “Will” visit again and I will stay at the Crown Choice our next time and probably many times in the future, there is no such thing as perfection when staying away from home, personally being a business owner I can say it offered everything we needed, Thanks to the Staff of the Crown Choice.

Skip this hotel
We were in a suite and needed the pull out sofa, they didn’t have any pillows at all to offer us. The towels smelled bad, there was mold on the floor of the “waterpark”, and the ice machine was out of order.

The hotel rooms and staff were good. However, there was a large hole in the center of the parking lot with, what looked like, a large broken metal sewer pipe in it. This area flooded during the rainstorm and the hole flooded and was not visible to cars using the lot. The hotel could have at least put up some cones to warn people.

Not bad
Check in was great. The room was better than what we booked. However, in the main entry of the room, there was something red splattered on the wall. In the bathroom, there was dog food behind the door, a blue powder substance on the floor by the sink along with a dirty Q-tip. The bedroom area was great. The entry door to get into the hotel were left open till at least 10pm. Thats when we returned to our room. When leaving the following morning, we spotted at bat in the hallway

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE
Do not waste your time here…the rooms are filthy…the carpet is so dirty it was sticky there were bugs on the walls the doors were broken and had no locks to keep the door closed. We had a disabled child with us and he could have easily fallen off the balcony as the sliding door wouldn’t stay closed. The front desk was rude the WHOLE place smelled like mold and there was no smoking anywhere but you could sure smoke marajuana everywhere. It was NOT on the lake beach and when other guests tell you to not pay and just leave and go find a cleaner place it’s not a good sign. It is an old decrepit dump.
