Blue door

It was a nice quiet little room just right for our overnight visit! Very close to downtown, all of the shopping and the ferry! We only had a couple of small complaints. When you first pull up looks can be deceiving because the outside appears very run down but the inside is very nice and recently remodeled! The only other complaints was the little blue light that flashed constantly from the Wi-Fi so we had to throw a pillow over it when we went to bed!

Photos were very misleading, you cannot see the bridge from this location. The one picture is of a restaurant down the street. One person can barely fit on the bed let alone two people. Window air conditioner was filthy and didn't keep the room very cold. TV was difficult to use, and everything was unplugged when we got there.

I'm going to start from top to bottom good to bad Location amazing just a short walk to the pier to take the ferry to Mackinac Island, short walk to the park and the bridge right next to all the little touristy shops that touristsCheck in and communication with the host I only used the verbal app to communicate with the host and every time they responded in a reasonable amount of time that being said I didn't see others trying to check in and contacting the host via phone calls and was having a lot of struggle contacting them I never received an email confirmation for the access code but they did respond on the verbal app so if you're planning on staying here just use the verbal app for communications Now cleanliness they have done some remodeling the walls look amazing but the carpet was disgusting the AC unit was very old the sign outside with the motels name on it really needed a fresh coat of paint. The exterior lights never came on so if you're coming back in the dark you're coming back in the dark. All of the furniture was very old very outdated none of the beds had fitted sheets so if you like to toss and turn at at night you're going to wake up sleeping on a bare mattress.But all in all I would probably stay there again but we only used it as a base camp for various trips to the UP ,Mackinac Island and other local shenanigansIf you're looking for a place to stay and you plan on spending a lot of time in the room I would not recommend it .

Location was great, we were right next to down town and Sheplers ferry. Unfortunately the host was unresponsive to messages and phone calls. The room was ok. It was clean but only appeared to be partly updated. The carpet and bathtub are still outdated. I’d recommend the room if you plan on doing a lot of activities and only need someplace to sleep.

The ad shows a picture of a restaurant that is across the street. Misleading advertising as to where you ate staying which is a run down motel that smells super musty. Very poor communication there is no phone number to call and email response is very slow. Very disappointing and no way to find a different place to stay.

Fine for the price

Location is ideal. Room was mostly as advertised. No info about how to operate the TV or the wi fi password in the room. Communication w proprietor was not great. Bathroom had no shower curtain. Beds comfy. Heating worked great. Didn’t try the AC. Frig clean and functional. Nice budget stay for an overnight en route to Mackinac Island.

Cheap Price, and You Get What You Pay For.

I'm not stating anything groundbreaking here.. this property is a place with a bed, toilet, and shower. When I walked in, after a long drive and arriving after 10pm that night, I go to flip the on the lights and the light switch doesn't work. The toilet seat in the bathroom was cracked in half. There were strands of a woman's hair left stuck to the shower walls. The shower was rusty and disgusting. There was an envelope asking for tips for the cleaning service of the hotel - what a joke. The only good thing about this place is the location is about as good as you could ask it to be if you're visting Mackinac Island. The hotel is within one block or a 90 second walk from the ferry entrance and there are a lot of restaurants and coffee shops very close by. This place is cheap for a reason. it's an extremely crappy hotel, but for a place to sleep it will get you by.

Location!

This is a room and a bed in a cute motel facility, very close to downtown, Wawatam Park, and to Shepler's Ferry to Mackinac Island. Lousy water pressure, a finicky door lock, a broken toilet seat that pinches your leg and pulls hair, only one roll of TP, not great comms with mgt, no bathroom surface area,... yet LOCATION wins the day. Great location.

Dated... quaint... close to everything

The property is dated and could use some minor updating. Easy changes like a new toilet seat & shower knobs. We also ran out of toliet paper... no backups. It is only 1 block from EVERYTHING. This made up for the little items that could be better. Check in was superb 👌

Overrated

It was definitely a motel. There is no host on site to aid with check-in, we could not access the television, the toilet seat was broken, the clock wiring was broken and there was no convenient outlet to plug in a laptop which had to use as a television. When calling the phone number to the property (to inform them about our concerns) it went to a Days Inn on the other side of town. If you're looking for a place to just stop and drop, this motel is perfect. otherwise find somewhere else to stay.

Do not stay here unless you just need to sleep and don't shower

Need more information on how the keypad works. Very little communication. When there was a problem, there was no communication until I contacted verbo. They had their maintenance person. Come out to fix the fact that there was no hot water. They did not let us know they were here did not fix the problem. And the people they brought with them sat outside of our room being very loud. Head to call back in the morning. End message to get the hot water fixed which did not get fixed before we left. The room was clean and nice. The bathroom had mold on the wall tiles, but there was no water pressure and no hot water. The TV there was no instructions on how to get that to work, so we're not able to use that. So basically it was a clean bed to sleep in

Ideal location in Mackinac City

Great little stopover. Simple room, but ideal location for getting around in Mackinac City and to the ferry to go across to Mackinaw Island. Could leave our vehicle right at the VRBO and walk everywhere.
