Room was Mid but it was one of the most affordable stays in Mackinaw City. I would stay again if on a budget but probably would pay more for a better option. Very friendly host.

The staff at the motel were great. We had an issue with a musty smell in the room. We let the manager know and while they couldn’t change our room since the motel was sold out, they had housekeeping work on clearing the odor from our room. We had a pleasant stay.

Over priced for what it was.
Room was small and bathroom was smaller. Sink was in the room, not in the bathroom, there wasn't room for it in there.It was old. There was a musty smell. People were very friendly and helpful. We were only there for 1 1/2 nights and that was enough.

We had an issue with our toilet not wanting to flush. Reported to the front desk and they had it fixed by the time we got back to our room for the day. The carpet is very old or very dirt. The bottoms of my daughter's feet and mine were black. Other than that it was comfy and no big issues
