Very quaint place with modern amenities. Mom-and-pop motel, locally owned, and well maintained. Owners and managers pay attention to every detail of the property, inside the rooms and outside. Very pleasant experience. Will definitely visit again!
It was exact like it was described and captured in photos on Expedia. It’s a nice, clean, comfortable, roadside motel. The owners were super friendly and every have us great suggestions for dinner. We would stay here again.
Very family oriented. Owners are so kind & generous & always there to lend a helping hand no matter what time of the day or night. This was our 2nd stay here & there will be many more stays at this motel. Beautiful views of Lake Huron just across the street.
This property is small but, well kept. The rooms are very clean and have a refrigerator and television. There is space for your suitcase. The only thing it was lacking was good internet.
Very old, not kept up, not very clean (baseboards, window sills etc). Beds very soft/uncomfortable. Our first room had ants & we had to move to another.
People who worked desk were nice tho. That's all I can say good about the place
If you need a fancy place with new everything- stay away- BUT if you like (or love in my case) small older motels stay here. Clean, showers great- new bed and excellent cable system.
Stay away from the chain hotels and give this place a try!
Older but clean; we stayed here for the night that we were in Alpena. It was during winter; very pleased that the room temperature wasn't freezing cold when we checked in. Parking lot and walk ways were cleared, salted not slippery. We'd definitely stay at this Ma&Pop lodge again.
