Good Choice. The experience started off rocky. I booked online and thought I was booking through Holiday Inn. Turns out my reservation was hi jacked by a bunch of internet pirates from getaroom.com. Beware; they jack up the price and keep the points. When arriving at the hotel, I was greeted by professional, friendly, and accommodating staff. When I asked for a larger room, it was given without an up charge or a question; just outstanding customer service. The room was spacious and appealing. My wife maintained that it smelled like mold but I couldn’t verify that. Location was convenient to Mackinac Island ferries. Breakfast was top notch. Room was serviced without a request; not common these days. Pool was good, although the spa was down. Overall a good choice. I have been a loyal Hilton guest for years. Based on this experience I will give more consideration to Holiday Inn hotels moving forward.

My husband and I stayed for just one night of our trip. The parking lot, lobby, room and breakfast area were all exceptionally clean. We didn't interact with too many staff members, but the ones we did were kind and helpful and CHEERY!!! I felt that our entire stay was clean, safe, comfortable and overall enjoyable.

An O.K. place

Reviewed By Brian A

I've stayed here several times in the past, it's a pretty nice place and the rates are fairly reasonable but it takes a l-o-n-g time for them to check you even if your alone, really long if there are people checking in besides yourself. And if it's raining you'll get wet because it's located in a separate building. The first room I got had an inoperative air conditioner, the second room they gave me a key to was already occupied ( oops...sorry ), the third one I got was a lakefront view...well it was on the lake side and you could see a little of the lake. It was an upgrade for all the bother I went thru, all I wanted to do was sleep.

Reviewed By Tracy D

We stayed here for two nights. The staff were very nice. The room was shall we say cozy. It was a challenge to find a spot to open up two suitcases. The bathroom is very tiny with just enough room to turn around. The shower head was a low one. I'm 5'4" and had to duck to get water on my head. The room was clean and had new flooring and walls. They had also installed room darkening curtains. The air conditioner was pretty noisy the first night and kept waking us up. The price was very reasonable.

reserved two rooms online for $119.00 each. When we checked in was told they only had available was rooms for $129.00 each. Went for breakfast they had a few miniature muffins and donut holes, yogurt and coffee. Manager complained about not having any help, house keeping would work for two hours and leave. someone the night before peeing in the bed in one of the rooms. mattress felt like they were many years old. Furniture old. table and two chairs were between the bed and the A/C unit. Could not walk beside the bed or get to the controls of the A/C without moving the table and chairs. WIFI was sporadic at the best.

Say NO to room 6

Reviewed By 92sandeem

Last January, 8 months in advance, I reserved this hotel, to participate in the Mackinac bridge walk. The price was great, under $100. The location was great; we could walk to town and we walked to the bridge for the walk. With the low price, I expected the room would be small and the fixtures older. But it was clean, and did I mention conveniently located? Here's my complaint. I made a reservation 8 months ago, arrived shortly after check-in time, and were given the ONLY room with no bay view, blocked by a scraggly tree. Worse, the room was right next to the office. So the view didn't matter, we had to keep our curtains shut because everyone going into the office had a view--of our room. Traffic noise is loud, but drops off at night. And as long as you don't get room 6, the view is amazing.

Ok to spend the night

The WiFi didn’t work well. If you need to stay for a night and don’t need WiFi, then this could be worth it. The bed was comfy, but other than that there’s not much more to compliment this hotel on. There was no microwave but there was a mini fridge in the room. The tv looked like it was at least 15-20 years old.
