Our stay was very relaxing and quiet! They provide multiple coupons at the front desk for things to do around town. The hotel is very close to downtown, we didn’t have to drive for anything except to cross the bridge!

It's dated, but clean and a good value. Located directly across the street from the ferry to Mackinac Island, it was the perfect place to stay after our day trip to the island.
