For a smaller motel, we were extremely pleased. Some of the outside needed a bit of paint but our room and the bathroom were very nice and was extremely clean. Beds were comfortable also. Shower only and it was quite small. Air conditioning was great since you could actually control the temp.

Basic, but perfect spot for a day trip to Mackinac island. Parked at the hotel and an easy walk to the ferry. Basic motel set up but everything is either very new or very clean, it felt new.
