Bed was miserable. Not charming just old and rundown. Not what I was hoping for. Bedframes stuck out from under bed. Easy to bang your legs in such a small room. Water leaked from sink and shower even after trying to turn it off. Not overly dirty though for price it was a place to sleep. Owners were nice. Hotel needs a lot of work.
There were four in my group with two rooms. All of us liked the hotel and would recommend to others, even though the motel is 70 years old the rooms are updated. The bathrooms are original, but in very good condition there are a couple of restaurants within walking distance, Only a few minutes from downtown, and very nice to walk across the street and be in the park on Lake Huron. Would stay here again without question

This is an ok place to stay for one night. Would not do more than that. Small room. Very clean. Toilet made a noise while filling up after flushing. Main door squeaked loudly which could be easily fixed. People that checked us in were very nice and friendly. No one in office at 8:45am when we left. Again, nice place but not for a long stay. Won't be back again
Cute mom and pop motel. No frills but very clean and comfortable beds. Bathroom is in the small side as well as the room but works if just needing a place to sleep.
Owners were very friendly.
Nice little mom and pop place. Price was fantastic. Everything was clean. The bathrooms are old and could use some updating, but they were clean. Nice overall stay and I would stay there again.
Fun older property that has been maintained and is now a retro look, very clean. Rooms are small, but everything you need. Right across from the lake. For sure, I would stay again.
An older motel but a decent place for the price. The couple in the office were friendly and helpful, as was the cleaning staff. Great location across US23 to Starlite Beach. A few fast food places within walking distance and a nice little restaurant right next door. For a couple of nights, it was perfect!
The property is quaint and on the small side but it has everything one needs for a comfortable stay. The owners are very sweet and kind. They make you feel very comfortable and welcome.
Mom and Pop motel on south side of town. Owners were very polite, Updated clean rooms but on the small side. No real area in the room to dry beach towels. View of Lake Huron is across the street and through a park area.
