It was just a fine choice for a swift stopover in Saint Ignace with outstanding value. The room was super clean, and the manager gave us discount coupons for breakfast at a nearby spot. Pro tip, get there early for breakfast to avoid waiting outside.

The customer service was impressive, especially when

the receptionist promptly addressed our issues. The staff was attentive and even provided complimentary ferry tickets to Mackinac Island. However, it was frustrating dealing with some maintenance issues that needed attention during our stay.

The motel was clean and tidy throughout our stay. Daily room cleaning kept everything fresh. I appreciated the stunning lake view that added charm to my mornings.

While the location was convenient for a short drive to nearby attractions, I was hoping for a more walkable distance.

We enjoyed our stay, especially the helpful staff who made our family feel right at home. The overall cleanliness of the place added to our comfort too.

In my kids’ opinion, the pool could have been bigger and better for family fun.

Clean room, comfortable bed, with free parking a couple blocks away from lovely scenic views. The staff was nice and responsive when I requested extra towels during my one-night stay.

Nothing bad to say.
