Only the beachfront
The motel went to hell. Interior and exterior falling apart. Outdated

Affordable lakefront location in Mackinaw City. It’s basic accommodation and reminds me of the motels we’d stay in the 90s when I was a kid. Nothing fancy, but has character. Balconies and beach are nice. Owner is a young women working hard to manage and take over the property. Very warm and welcoming.
Sliding glass door was broken to the balcony but we could still manage to open it. Could use updates, but you get what you pay for!

The lake view was amazing, the rooms had cockroaches, very outdated and worn down. Air conditioner barely worked.
The cockroaches. The pop machine took our $.the water park pass was a bonus we thought untill we got there and it was a small toddler splash pad.

Dirty sheets with stains, hair all over in bathroom and on hair dryer, dirt all over the door and overall uncleanlinesses, unsure if the heat worked, it was very cold, I tried to turn up the heat but then I found dirty sheets and only stayed for about 10 minutes, I tried to get a refund but they refused, staff was very rude and not helpful at all. They would not even provide the actual name of the company that owned the motel, I have requested a refund through booking.com and have disputed the charge with my credit card. Very disgusting and disappointing.

The view of the Mackinaw bridge is amazing! & it’s so close to the water:) Low price hotel, but still had fridge & coffee maker.
The beds are not the most comfortable- a little hard, but for the low price it was not a surprise.

Staff was friendly. Did tell us it wasn't the best. Just didn't expect it to be that bad. Beautiful beach front view. Beautiful drive down highway. Location perfect.
Room smelled from excessive moisture. I use CPAP, that smell made me sick. Gaps around doors. Excessive mold on siding. Sliding door lock broke. Used wood in track to lock door. Window blinds falling down. Carpet stained. Would have asked for my money back but this was a lay over until we continued our trip. I was to weak to go on.
3.0
The view from the room was beautiful. The tap water was hot and smelled clean. The property was great to hang out in
The sheets and pillowcases were dirty. The floor was unswept (there was a toenail clipping just inside the doorway). There were fingerprints all over the window. The tiles missing from the bathroom floor were not safe to walk on. The mold in the tub was not appealing. The furniture had food stains on them. The refrigerator had food drippings in it.
