    Had a great night sleep, clean, quite, very comfy and over priced. I will be back. it's only a 8 minute walk to the Arnold ferry boat.

    I found this on my latest vacation when googling hotels in Mackinac city. I felt led to leave my…read moreprevious hotel due to a few reasons some of them related to the room and some for personal reasons. This property and its price was a blessing on this day as I took the last room apparently with a single bed. I booked at 3 pm on the day before the property closed for the season. Please express my gratitude to the kind young man at the desk on my arrival on 10/24 for his empathy and kind words to me coming from a unpleasant situation. Arriving here was like a warm hug from a friend, it was warm, friendly and clean. The noise issues that were a major factor at the other hotel were not an issue here. I decided that outdoor corridors and me are not ever going to happen again. It is not what I want from a hotel experience Due to the pandemic, only the pool was open not the hot tub even though it looked good, I didn't go there. Also coffee pots have been removed from the rooms due to cleaning issues, but the lobby had fresh tasty coffee brewing and available. I appreciated the variety of the creamers and sweetners. My room was very large as it was handicap accessible which was ok as it was likely others would have been settled at this stage unlike me. I also like the more spacious parking spots and overall apoearance. It is more centrally licated to popular spots but being October and snow flurries I drove. BC pizza delivers and that is a nice perk as their food is good. Thank you for the grab and go type breakfast which you get at the counter from 7-10am that day I stayed. It is nice to have some options for travelers in the pandemic. I chose apple juice, raspberry yogurt and an apple cinnamon muffin which were all prepackaged. It is a safe and appreciated gesture. The other items offered are pictured below

I was checked on twice to make sure I was enjoying myself. Anytime I needed something the staff were immediate with helping. Loved my stay. Thank you baymont mackinaw city staff for being so kind.

    When we walked in, we were greeted. We were given a key and told where to go. We asked if the ferry…read moreboats were still running and they said yes. Once we got back to the hotel we checked in the room. The lamp and outlets on one side didnt work at all, which to me was weird for spending around $250 for one night. We decided to go to the pool. The pool was nice and heated so that was definitely a perk. They had towels too. The only problem is the room is on the outside so it was freezing when we walked back. We decided to use the jacuzzi and when we turned the jets on the water was dirty. My husband went to the bathroom and the toilet was clogged. He tried to wash his hands and there was no hand soap. They have facial soap and shampoo and conditioner bottles. We got the kids ready for bed and asked the front desk to help with the toilet. They didnt send someone after 30 so we checked again and they gave him an attitude. They eventually sent someone 20 minutes later and it was an easy fix. The breakfast was upstairs and we were told there's only stairs to it, which I thought was weird. We carried the kids up to the third floor and had breakfast. It wasn't too bad, it's just basic hotel food. Overall our stay was pretty decent, I don't think it was worth $250 but I think it's just super pricey in the city and pricier on the island.

They had so many carbs and very little of everything else Cereals, cinnamon bread, soft bread, bagels, pancakes, muffins, oatmeal versus eggs, ham, yogurt, oranges But, great coffee machine and juices Would eat again Update: apple juice is shit, 6/10 due to lack of flavor Saw a guy's ass Crack just now Rating is down to 8/10 overall

    We stopped in Mackinaw City on our way back home from camping in the UP. Chose this motel because…read moreit had pretty high reviews. We ended up in Building 3 on the first floor. We had an attached balcony with a view of the bridge. We also had access to the lake front, which has chairs, fire pits, and corn hole boards available. All of which were pretty dated, but it's a nice gesture. The rooms themselves were large. We had a king bed that was pretty comfortable. The mattress pad did have a stain on it, as did a few of the towels that they provided. You could tell that the carpet around the baseboards hadn't been vacuumed well. Lastly, we had a few spiders on our wall. They might have gotten in when we opened the door, but it seems unlikely since we only stayed briefly for one night. Reservation process was easy and the staff in the office were very nice. The site also has a pool and provides breakfast in the morning. Compared to other hotels in the area, $210 for the night seemed reasonable. Overall, it was fine for a short stay, but nothing great or memorable.

    I didn't quite know what to expect but the reviews were good. Drove up to the motel and was…read morepleasantly surprised to see how amazing the place looked. And then I walk into the room and see the amazing view of the lake. The room size was spacious. The only minor thing was the water pressure was lower than I like but that's not that big of a deal. The staff was nice and the check in process was easy. They also offer a campfire and s'mores that they provide everything for. Sadly we missed that but sounds amazing. The breakfast was your standard with scrambled eggs, biscuit and sausage, and other continental breakfast items. Food was okay but the rest of the motel makes up for it. I love this place.

We had a sitting room, king-sized bed, and whirlpool. Our private deck provided a view of Lake Huron. We only stayed one night so we only got to enjoy one breakfast. We had sausage, cheesy potatoes, fresh fruit and a cinnamon roll. It was wonderful. Seating is between 8-9:30am. A self-serve coffee/tea bar is available 24/7. As an added bonus, they serve dessert from 7-8pm nightly. We got to enjoy that one night as well. Dessert was a chocolate brownie topped with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and caramel. Omg, it was so good. We really should have spilt one as they were huge. The place was in a great location. It was a short walk to the Mackinac Island ferry. We walked to a dinner spot. All the shops were only a short walk away. We got there early (before our room was ready) and they allowed us to park in their lot so we didn't have to pay for parking in the ferry lot. Finally, the staff was absolutely wonderful. So helpful. So welcoming. Whatever you needed, they were there for you. The place is spotless. The food is amazing. So glad we stayed.

    ***Our visit was at the end of March, which is the off season for this city. A visit during…read moreMay-October will offer much more to do in Mackinaw City. There were only 2 restaurants and 2 stores open during our visit, which made it very difficult to get the most out of this trip. I included this note in the review because you will probably book through the Mackinaw City website, which does not fully emphasize how many businesses and attractions are closed November-April. If you visit during the off season, plan on crossing the bridge to St. Ignace or driving 45 minutes to Petoskey for more food/shopping choices.*** [Staff/Service] Check-in staff was friendly, but not particularly helpful. We were given wrong directions for accessing the waterpark, which resulted in taking an elevator to the third floor only to walk back down three flights of stairs to the park when our room was maybe 200 feet from the main entrance. The other desk clerk we interacted with was new, but helpful when we needed batteries for a TV remote. [Cleanliness] The room was very clean. However, my son did find a leftover marijuana cone in the back of a dresser drawer. [Space] The room was very spacious. We booked a suite, and 3 adults + 2 kids were comfortable the whole stay. [Decor] Room decor was minimal and outdated, BUT the low prices of this hotel also don't attract the kind of clientele who respect the property. More modern decor would be nice, but I understand not investing in too much here. [Furniture/Bedding] The mattresses seemed new. Bedding was very clean and comfortable. The furniture is outdated and worn, but sturdy. As with decor, I don't blame the owners for not investing heavily in new furniture. [Noise] It was still the off season, so it was pretty quiet most of the time. A few other guests did get loud sitting on the balconies, but again... the low prices attract a "variety" of visitors. We saw a lot of empty alcohol and cigarette trash around the parking lot every morning, and saw multiple families (with children) carrying baggies of marijuana into their rooms. So... [Location] It's Mackinaw City... During the regular season, it has great access to everything. In the off-season, expect to travel to St. Ignace or Petsokey for food/shopping. [Price] Incredible value! A 2 bedroom suite with waterpark included for three nights was HALF the price of a one-night stay at most other waterparks. It is very budget-friendly, and perfect for kids up to probably 13. The pool is large, and the hot tub is basically a pool itself, so great for adults. [Food] Huge disappointment here. The website for this specific hotel states "updated breakfast room", but there is NO breakfast at this hotel. In the off season (Nov-April), there are only two nearby restaurants with breakfast, one of them being a high-priced saloon. Plan to pack breakfast items or drive across the Mackinac Bridge to St. Ignace. [General] It's a budget-friendly, family-friendly hotel with a nice indoor waterpark. A bit outdated and in need of some repairs, but don't let that deter you from visiting. In the future, we plan to visit after May, when more attractions are open.

    Old school vintage rooms…read more Forgot I booked a beach front view and balcony. The room smells a bit musty. Nice soundscape with the waves crashing on the shore and the seagulls belting out their calls. For whatever reason we aren't getting good cell service in the room. We had to use the hotel WiFi to get any access. The breakfast is not good. The waffle batter is runny and turns out quite rubbery. Plain tea to drink only, white plain toast as the only pastry. Sugar cereal. Mushy Eggo pancakes, steamed ham, canned fruit, from concentrate OJ, maple flavored syrup. It's worse than the last place. Their food offerings are weak. They ran out of knives at breakfast. The plastic ware is not sturdy at all, hard to even cut a soft Eggo pancake or waffle. The doorwall screen is ripped on the bottom corner, probably how mosquitos entered our room. Day two and three is the same warm boring breakfast. We were able to get one Gala apple and a plain bagel at least. This is one of the worst continental breakfast offerings and they won't replenish or refill as it gets closer to 9AM. Additionally their offerings are not good. No yogurt. No tea bags except a plain tea. The third day I was able to get a Nature Valley granola bar. This hotel likes to create scarcity in the breakfast room and have guests grab items due to FOLO. Do be careful walking over the bathroom threshold, seems to have some nails exposed, as I hit it with my socked foot or bare foot at times, it smarts. The bed frame is a metal box all around the bed, rather odd, was expecting a wood frame to match the head board. The metal frame seems like a DIY platform. One of the towels in the basket had some stains on it, it's a white towel, bleach it out, no? The room does get really dark, makes for better sleep. Good drapes to give you a good night of sleep. Room is a bit antique. Breakfast is sad and low grade and lazy. The shower stall is tiny. The walk to town is only a few blocks. Room isn't small, but feels cramped. Nails sticking out by the bathroom threshold. Carpet feels grimy and dirty.
