Loud echoes
Super thin walls, extremely noisy when anyone walked by or started the car. Only stay here if you have ear plugs or are a heavy sleeper. Bed is like concrete, so not very comfy

Great location
Excellent location near bridge. Motel is decent for the price. Pool and hot tub are great. Room was a bit dated and had a slight musty smell but, was comfortable. Can’t beat being so close to the bridge! We were able to see the sunset and sit on benches afterwards to see the bridge at night. Like others stated, parking is a bit tight but really wasn’t a problem.

Sept 2025 trip
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...
