New owners are horrible people to deal with and the rooms have some type of bugs on the bed. Disgusting.

Stayed here this past weekend. Thursday-Sunday. Price was great due to the wedding booking out…read morealmost the whole hotel. Room-Booked a king but got a double suite. Was so tired that I didn't even both complaining. And honestly, a few nights where no one could touch me and I could flip around on the bed however I wanted...not gonna pass that up. The room itself was spacious for a hotel room. Nice sitting area with a couch that turned into a trundle/daybed. Desk area. Fridge, of course. A wall divide that area from the bed. The bathroom was divide in 2. A toilet and sink behind one pocket door and sink and nice sized shower behind another pocket door. Perfect for people who really need privacy in the bathroom. HUGE closet and the most storage I've seen in a hotel room. Beds were comfy. AC worked great. Water pressure was definitely the best I've had in a hotel. Breakfast-Kind of assumed it would be mediocre. Assumed wrong. Of course the normal cereals and breads stuff but scrambled eggs and sausage. Waffles on the weekend. Oatmeal. Amazing scones. Coffee was also really good. Amenities-Didn't make it to the pool but it and the hot tub were small but nice. Small exercise room. Two really nice outdoor seating areas. Huge fire pit. Service-All the staff we encountered were great. Got too directions to a place to eat one night. Was able to check out at 4am. We were here for a wedding and the whole family had to be at least 50% of the booking if not more. We had a hospitality suite with drinks and snacks and what not. It was always open. Huge thanks to the staff for putting up with us and gently kicking us out of the lobby at 11:30 one night. :) One not great thing happened but it allows me to give kudos to the night manager. We got back from the wedding close to midnight. Crashed in bed. Then around 1:30am I hear a banging on the door. Stumbling over and opening it, I see 3 sherrif's officers outside my door in the hallway. They kindly told me everything was alright and go back to bed. I did. I asked the manager at checkout a very short 3 hours later what happened since they woke me up. Turns out another patron decided it would be a good idea to punch his wife/SO and then run away. The manager was not having violence on his watch and called police. Good on him. I doubt I'll be back in the Saginaw area anytime soon but if I am then I would absolutely stay here.

I had to go on a last minute business trip to Saginaw for the weekend and chose this hotel based on…read morethe reviews. Thankfully, this hotel managed to hold up to the reviews unlike the rest of the places I stopped at during it. The staff were quick and friendly, my room was modern and clean and the whole experience was better than I hoped for after my last stay at a different chain.

The rooms are clean and the A/C is very cold. I love the number and placement of plugs. Most hotels…read moreI stay in never have enough plugs or they're not in the ideal spots but that's not the case here. Each side of the bed has 2 3 prong outlets and 2 USBs which is amazing. The shower is hot and has amazing water pressure. The room is laid out very well and feels quite spacious. I will be staying here again in the future!

If I could give this hotel zero stars, I would. I'm a Hilton Diamond member, and I stay in hotels…read moreconstantly for work. I choose Hilton properties for a reason -- consistency, reliability, and good service. This hotel delivered none of that. On November 8, the hotel's entire hot water system failed. Annoying, but things happen. The night front desk agent told me there was no information and no timeframe on when it would be repaired. Fine -- I said I'd check again in the morning before switching hotels. The next afternoon on November 9, I called the front desk again. The woman who answered told me the problem still wasn't fixed and "probably wouldn't be all weekend." When I mentioned what the night clerk had told me, she said "That's not true -- he should have told you it will be out all weekend" Then I said, reasonably, that I would likely need to check out since they still had no hot water -- a basic expectation for any hotel, let alone a Hilton. Her immediate response? "Well, you're not getting a refund." Mind you -- I hadn't even asked for one. When I asked if this is really how they treat Diamond members, she said it didn't matter. Let me be clear: the lack of hot water was bad enough, but the attitude, dismissiveness, and complete lack of professionalism from the front desk was far worse. No apology, no empathy, no attempt to make things right -- just a defensive and rude employee doubling down on bad service. I had planned to stay here 16 days a month for the next 4+ months for business. Now? Absolutely not. I've already canceled future stays and will be taking my business -- and my loyalty to the Home2 suites there in Saginaw Hilton should be embarrassed by how this property represents their brand. If this is how they treat their most loyal guests, I can't imagine how they treat everyone else. Avoid this place. Hilton has plenty of better options.

We went up North for a wedding of my/our best friends... The room was was you know what you would…read morecall for a small inn. It was clean they were very polite and overall it was a very good experience and we decided to stay there for 4 days. Pricing was very very reasonable and I would recommend it to others to use. I would like to thank the staff for the experience of staying in sleep ees inn in Saginaw what Michigan... So thank you for the the experience to the staff!! When we go back up to visit our family up there. We will use it again... The beds are very comfortable the room was clean and everything was just so nice the room it's not like one of the bigger fancier places to stay. But it had all the amenities that we needed and it was very very nice. The beds were very comfortable and very easy to sleep so we highly recommend this inn to stay at...

Great stay. Loved the larger fridge/freezers in room and the layout with all the wall storage…read more Everything was in good condition. Our 12yo said sofa sleeper was better (more comfortable) than other places, and had no complaints. Breakfast was better quality with some nicer offerings and variety (egg bites and chicken fillets) that I didn't expect. Very clean and newer throughout. We didn't try the pool. At check in, you are asked to sign an acknowledgment of quiet hours (start at 10pm) and hotel has right to remove you w no refund if you are running around, door slamming, shouting, etc. I think this "no tolerance" policy set a clear expectation and everyone got more of the rest they needed because of it, even while a large number of middle school kids were staying there for a sports event. We were impressed and would definitely stay again.

Excellent customer service at this location. The front desk employee was very friendly and helpful…read morewith local recommend directions. It is nice to feel truly welcome when checking in after a long day of travel and work. My King room was pretty standard HIE, and very clean. This is a nice location with many restaurants, including local, chains, pizza, fast casual, and fast food. Definitely something for everyone. Lots of shopping too. Breakfast is better than average. Overall a great place to stay when you are in the area.

There were bugs in our room! We stayed here for convenience…read moreto be closer to where our family was also staying. I was not expecting an extravagant place but at least a clean room. Our first room had dead bugs and big ants crawling around the AC unit and the corner of the room. There were stains on the bed duvet and mattress and also on the walls. We asked to switch rooms but was told they were completely booked. The next morning, I saw people checking out so I asked again if it would be possible to switch rooms and they were able to switch us. The new room also had dead bugs by the AC unit which I showed the front desk. They asked the house keeper to vacuum it up (which she gave me dirty looks for the rest of the trip). This room was slightly better (cleaner) than the last one. I stayed 2 more nights and proceeded to kill more big ants and pill bugs inside the room. Please note: We did not have food or drinks in the room or eat anything in the room. I even made my family eat their snacks in the lobby. I'm done with this place. Never again. Other mentions: they have a pool and serve complimentary breakfast.

I listen to a podcast and the Scottish Inn is a frequent topic of the show. I was on the way to…read morethe UP from Ohio, was heading through Saginaw, and decided to give the Scottish Inn a try. Furthermore, I love good old school bars (dark, lots of locals, and history). The Scottish Inn is a place where a person could hang around for a very long time. The light is dim, the walls are covered in Scottish Tartan, the drinks are strong, and the prices are low. I tried to order a PBR draft, but none of the draft taps were working at that point, so I decided on a Labatt's bottle. I was a bit peckish, so I ordered an Olive Burger and onion rings. The burger was delicious, perfectly cooked, and loaded with chopped olives and Swiss cheese. This would be a place that I would come back to, when the draft taps were working, and I had more time to sit back and relax.

This place is old school at it finest. It's dark, and small…read moreinside and the vibe is very welcoming. Lots of regulars on this Friday afternoon buying each other drinks, and that is always a good sign of a great place to be! The food is really good and prices are very reasonable! I had a half reuben and onion rings, the portions are very nice. I really liked the decor, the tartan plaid wall covering, the custom coasters and glassware was a nice touch. If you are ever in the old town area of Saginaw do yourself a favor and give the Scottish Inn a try, I promise you won't regret it!
