Nicest inn in Michigans lower peninsula! The lady running the front desk is so friendly and…read morehelpful- recommended great food/ice cream places nearby to me! The rooms themselves felt very homey and are clean. Although the room didnt have a fridge, there was a microwave and ice machine in the shared hallway leading to the koi pond. The back area is so unique, it felt like someone's private backyard, so quiet and peaceful! There's an entire covered deck with comfy lounge chairs, and seating along the large koi pond. Guests pre-order their breakfast at check-in and pick a time slot to eat at, breakfast itself was very tasty and was planned so efficiently! This inn also has an indoor library with a wide selection of books! Such a great experience here, I highly recommend booking for the night if you're in the area!

Well-maintained motel that isn't a chain and looks like a roadside motel out of the 1950s (probably…read morebecause it was). Yet... it is upgraded. Quiet rooms - a bit smaller than more modern motels; solid walls; area with books and board games; great healthy breakfast (either a fruit/granola option or some sort of quiche). Right on the main street from US 31 to downtown Ludington. The coolest part is the patio and koi pond in the back. Restful. Attaching pictures.

I'm ashamed to say that I usually shy away from lodging that has the word "motel" in it, and prefer…read moreto stay at places that have the word "hotel" in it. But Nader's also has the word "suites" in its name, so that appeased my snobby side enough to take a chance on this place. And I'm glad I did! If only all motels were like this one. First of all, Nader's offers suites, which come with full kitchens: a stove/oven, full refrigerator, silverware and dishes, a kitchen sink, a living room that transforms into a pull-out bed, and a little kitchen table. There are two TVs in the suites, plus two full-sized beds. It's all very tidy and nice for families, because you have so many comforts of home. The one thing that wasn't my favorite about the suite is that there isn't a bathroom sink. You have to use the kitchen sink for everything. Which I'm sure most people don't care about, so your mileage may vary. But the rest of the hotel amenities offset that minor inconvenience. Things like the Adirondack chairs that circle around a big fire pit that's lit in the evenings. The free bikes that you can just pick up and ride around Ludington. The basketball court and little area with corn hole, shuffle board and giant Connect Four. The outdoor pool (that's heated, but not warm). The free wifi and free parking. The location -- oh man, the location! You're literally a four-minute walk from the beach. All of these things make Nader's a great place to stay for families. And other families must agree, because we saw lots of them during our stay.

My boyfriend and I just had a nice 2-night stay at Avenue Motel. The pros: old school motor court…read morecharm, great location, impeccably clean rooms, reasonable nightly rate ($125/night + tax for a room with a queen bed on a weekday), and excellent covid protocols in place. The cons: cozy rooms (but how much time do you spend in your room on vacation anyway?), our shower was slow to drain and left me in a puddle by the time I was done, no fridge/microwave in room (no place to put them, I understand), beds weren't the most comfortable, and a sizeable gap between blinds and windows that would allow people to see in. We hung a sheet over the window to fix this problem. It would be a good idea if the motel added curtains. Despite these few inconveniences, I definitely wouldn't hesitate to return to Avenue Motel in the future.

We stayed 2 nights at this hotel. It was a basic Best Western and pretty busy. It's a little old…read moreand could use an update but I was impressed by several things. First of all the staff. Everyone was SO nice. My son burned his finger on the waffle iron and they immediately got him an ice pack and bandaids. She even gave us a few free waters. So kind. I also noticed they were cleaning the pool in the morning. It seems like a no brained but I'm sure many of these hotels don't get the pools cleaned. This one did! The pool was really nice and had a hot tube and a sauna (which was closed). There's also a game room that you have to pass to get to the pool so prepare for that if you have kids. They ran out of towels but had them filled back up in 5 min. Breakfast was standard but again the staff was super nice. It's always nice to get free breakfast. My kids loved the mini waffles. Very close to the beach and a great place to stay!

I was traveling with 2 small dogs and got very lucky that they're dog friendly. Call and check to make sure they still are though, the owner told me when I checked out that they may not be dog friendly for much longer. I could tell the owner is a big time dog lover but understand her possible future decision to not take dogs anymore, can never tell how responsible of a dog owner one is or how behaved one dog is to the next. Great experience! So glad to have found this gem!!!

We moved back to a regular room when we extended our stay. Both the apartment and motel rooms were clean and well organized. Location is beach adjacent and close to stores and coffee shops.

Stayed overnight after making the crossing on the SS Badger…read more The bed was very comfy and the room was quiet. Lots of pillows on the beds. Very clean. The door on fridge in the room was open so it took overnight for it to be cold again. The breakfast area was very small and crowded so we skipped breakfast there and walked to the McDonald's next door. Also they didn't keep it stocked well. There are so many things to do there. A small decent gym, a good size indoor pool with a hot tub. A game room with air hockey and video games. Definitely not walking distance from downtown, unless you really like to walk a good distance. The remote for the tv has a Netflix button on it but the hotel has blocked it and it's not available. Definitely would stay here again.

The initial room I was assigned had an obvious issue with the HVAC unit. The thermostat was set to…read more68, but the room temperature was actually 84. I got another room. By the end of my stay, there was a problem with the HVAC unit in the 2nd room. The hotel provides free WIFI, but the performance is throttled down to 10 Mb. I had much better performance with my cell phone using cellular data. I used that when I had to. When I checked in I requested a room on the 2nd floor. I thought that would be the top floor because the hotel near the front is two stories. What I didn't know was the back of the hotel is 3 stories. Can you guess where my room was? I eventually ended up with someone in the room over me. I could easily hear them walking across their floor, which vibrated the ceiling over my head. Pack ear plugs if you get a room like I had.
