Pros: This vintage motel was big & roomy. I'm not sure if it has always been this well-maintained, or if it was restored during a renovation... It looks "old" but it feels / smells / seems new. It was like being in a time warp, except the beds and water pressure were better, there was a fridge, and we couldn't hear the neighbors! The owners were on-site, helpful, and friendly. My husband and I are 60s and 70s kids, so we thought it was fabulous!
Cons: Honestly, there is nothing I did not like about this place. We're DEFINITELY staying here again on our next trip north; I'm not even shopping around!
Okay
5.1
Pros: The rooms were quite clean.
Cons: I get that lodging in Mackinaw City is hard to come by on summer weekends, but this was way too expensive for what we got. The hotel wi-fi was nonfunctional, presumably because our room was too far from the single router in the office. If I ever stay in Mackinaw City again, I'll be sure to make reservations farther ahead of time.
Situated in St Ignace, this beach hotel is within a 10-minute walk of Lake Huron, Star Line Mackinac Island Main Dock - St. Ignace, and Saint Ignace Chamber of Commerce. Museum of Ojibwa Culture and Marquette Mission Park are also within 15 minutes.

9.7
Pros: The room was very large and the bed extremely comfortable. The corner unit we had showed a view of the lake and the morning sunrise was specular on our balcony. The breakfast was good and had a variety of things to choose from. You can't come to the UP and not expect to see crowds, there were a lot of people in for a early breakfast before heading out to the ferry's for Mackinaw Island, the staff was very gracious and kept the flow going refilling the dishes and cleaning up as fast as people left. I would return here in a heart beat and highly recommend this Best Western Harbour Pointe .
Cons: The amount of geese walking on the grass and near waters edge. They leave behind quite a mess, there should be some way to control this. We avoided the bond fire held at night because of this, you couldn't see where you were walking and stepping on.

Pros: the room was remodeled and the décor was done very well and pleasant. we were surprised that we found ourselves in a facility that must have been the first building used many years ago, not at all resembling all the other buildings----very retro.
Cons: What spoiled our stay was a strong mildew odor. We are both allergic to mold and spent the night with Kleenex.
Good

Pros: I liked the location to the ferries.
Cons: We stayed in the Michigan Building which is a single level building. When we turned on the air conditioner, it was really loud and had a musty smell the entire time. Bathrooms were small that it was hard to shut the bathroom door.

6.8
Pros: It was super easy to get to, right off the highway. It's super close to everything.
Cons: We had wished that the hotel staff would have let us know that there was a very large senior tour during our stay. Only because the morning ended up being so crammed full of people trying to get breakfast and people waiting for the bus to load all of their luggage. We could have rearrangedone our schedule to try and avoid the mess.

6.8
Pros: Very clean, staff at the desk were nice. The location is great, there are good restaurant's in the area and of course easy access to the ferry docks. They do have coupons for the Mackinac ferries, we had to ask however if they offered any.
Cons: We booked a room and it was in the basement of the building, it was decorated as all the other areas were but to me it has a somewhat claustrophobic feel about it. The most significant problem was, at check out we received our zero balance bill however we were BILLED AGAIN a full night we discovered upon bank statement review. It took four days of calling to get an answer and were told it would take up to five business days to be completed. The manager never spoke to us or apologized, it was all handled via front desk staff. At a $250/night charge you would hope for better service. I however find this an issue with ALL TRAVEL SITES I BOOK WITH

7.6
Pros: Easy In and Easy out. The price was about right for the facilities. Check in was fast. Breakfast was great. Beds were pillow tops and comfortable.
Cons: I have mobility problems and the elevator was a one end of the complex and our rooms were at the far end away from the elevator. There were ramps but I still had to walk too great a distance. I would not stay here again even if on the ground floor because I would have to go upstairs for breakfast with no direct elevator.
Good
6.0
Pros: Room was clean and in good repair. Bfast buffet was very nice. Front desk manager very nice and helpful. Hotel location central to most everything in Mackinaw City. We got a good deal on the internet. Overall facility looked clean and in good repair.
Cons: A good deal on the internet meant a poor view out of our room--we looked out half to part of the parking lot (which always-every day- had laundry and carts and other maintenance items and half to the opposite side of the hallway. A good deal also meant lots of foot traffic by our door at all hours. Our mattress was very worn and needed to be turned or flipped or something. When we arrived, we encountered women from Haiti working at the front desk and they were still on the learning curve w/regard to checking people in. We were not given all the info we needed. Our key cards lost their programming to unlock our door twice during our three-night stay (annoying!).
Excellent
8.5
Pros: The breakfast was good. The location was prime for travel to the island, equidistant to each of the docks for the two major ferry lines. The room was nice, the staff was very helpful and knowledgeable of the area.
Cons: I don't like that the pool wasn't accessible without a trip outside. It was still cool enough outside that that was a deterrent from bringing my young kids to the pool. The layout was only ok for things like the breakfast location and pool location; they very much have the appearance that they were add-ons after the original building was completed. I also had an issue with our toilet not wanting to flush. The maintenance response was quick and efficient, but later in our stay it appeared as though the fix wasn't complete.
Excellent
10.0
Pros: What we liked best was the way the rooms are set up. There is an open suite with a private room on each side. The rooms are lovely, nice linens, towels, pillows, and comfortable beds. We were traveling with my brothers and their wives, whom we haven't seen in a long time. It made it easy for us to spend time together. Plus, the location was central enough for us to walk to restaurants and local stores. I would happily return to this motel/hotel in the future.

Cons: I had no stay at the Best Western! It was closed when I arrived at the INN about 6:30 PM. They were closed. A note on the door said to go to a different Inn. I did and paid a higher rate. KAYAK or BEST WESTERN I do not know but GOOE on you and Best Western!! A PHONE CALL TO LET ME KNOW WOULD KEPT ME FROM BEING SO PISSED.

Pros: Impressed by the size of the room for the price we paid. We were not in the room much - only to sleep. We had a lakeview room that had an awesome sunrise the following morning. The room was clean and the heat worked great. We were freezing from being @ the island most of the day in 32 degree weather and when we got back to the room it was super warm and the beds were comfortable. Good selection of TV channels and a decent free breakfast the next morning. Great location to everything. Would recommend.

Pros: The view from the room was the only good thing.
Cons: The staff was incredibly rude. Couldn't connect to the wifi from my room and when I brought it up with the staff, they became defensive and arrogant. They didn't bother listening to my concerns. They also weren't helpful when I asked them about ferry times to Mackinaw Island. They rudely told me that they didn't know and that I should look it up myself. The breakfast was awful, not much to offer and had stale low-quality food. They also didn't have enough food for the guests. The rooms could have been cleaner. Found stains on the sheets and towels. Not all of the lights worked. Overall, a terrible experience and won't be staying here again.

10.0
Pros: Great place! Free breakfast in the morning and they had storage inside for bicycles so we didn’t have to leave them on the car. That really worked out well. Shuttle service to the ferry and right on the beach. All for really reasonable prices.
Cons: Not really anything. The rooms aren’t luxury, but they were very clean and comfortable.
Okay
4.0
Pros: The location was convenient for taking the ferry over to the island. Nice view off balcony.
Cons: This hotel was somewhere I would expect to pay $50 a night. Outdated color schemes, dark and gloomy rooms. There was a bra inside of the fold out couch which tells me no one had changed the linens in it. The breakfast in the morning was not very appealing inside a room with no windows. The pool and spa area looked like a basement- the water was gross looking. Call me crazy, but for $250 a night, I expect a very nice hotel! I would not recommend staying here.

Thank you, Super 8 and staff. My mom and I had a great stay!

Okay
5.4
Pros: Furniture was stylish and rustic, perfect for the location. Continental breakfast was as expected, decent selection of quick eats.
Cons: Staff had to be distracted away from magazine in order to check in (acted annoyed with our presence). Then as a second employee argued with first employee during our check-in we were completely ignored. Finally got room assignment and was placed directly next to open lobby area. Asked politely if they had a quieter room available and without looking up from the desk, we were told "we're full". We responded with "oh, you don't have any other rooms available?" And after an exaggerated sigh, told again "we're full". Very rude.

Pros: My kids loved the small waterpark. The age range to enjoy this water park would be 3-18. It has 2 water slides, small lazy river, decent size pool, and a toddler pool play area. Beautiful view on the beach at the back of the hotel. This hotel is conveniently less than a mile away from all the shops and restaurants. Staff was very friendly when we checked in and out.
Cons: I did not like the bed sheets as they were really loud when you moved around. There was permanent stains on the sheets as well. At some point those should have been tossed or recycled. It felt a little musty in the hotel. Maybe a good cleaning of everything would help with the musty smell.

Pros: Beautiful lake-front hotel, friendly staff, great little water park. Breakfast was good (waffles were delicious). I loved hearing the waves from our room.

Pros: Surly check in lady. When they say 3pm check in rhey mean not a minute sooner. Dont stay in room 129. Stained carpet, towel rack over the toilet sagging 3 inches and ready to drop the towels in the toilet. The patio screen had been pushed out and was being held in with a strip of dried out duct tape. The tape had been there a while. Internet would stay on a few minutes then shut off. On and off, over and over.
Cons: Most every thing.

Pros: Location
Cons: The hotel is more like a ran-down motel. The carpet is moist and dirty, the furniture and room needs renovation. Purchased room online and it did not meet my expectations as per online listing and photos. Not a good start to a family vacation for such a great unique town

Pros: The beachfront is the only thing saving this hotel. Great location.
Cons: Cleanliness. Mold in the grout in the bathroom, mold under old linoleum in bathroom, peeling mirror and vanity which has never been updated. No light working on the only bathroom at pool house. Hot tub had so much chlorine it burned your eyes to sit in it. Peeling wallpaper. Old carpets. One Ice machine and it was depleted most of the time. No working vending machines on premises. The only savior was a nice little beach for young children right outside our door.
Located in Mackinaw City, this beachfront hotel is in the city centre and within a 10-minute walk of Lake Huron and Mackinaw City Ferry Terminal. Mackinaw City Dock and Wawatam Park are also within 1 mile (2 km).

Pros: The lights that had plugs available did in fact work.
Cons: The place was not a bad place to stay, but I am under the impression the scaffolding and associated repair materials are just props. The TVs were the only up to date items in the room outside of consumables like light bulbs and shower supplies. The rate was lower than most in mackinaw and tidy. The conditions of the general infrastructure was poor. All buildings had signs of roof damage parking lot was a 50/50 mix of puddles after the rain the night before. Overall this place is solid 2 star hotel. Don't think Holiday Inn think Route 66 from the sixties mixed with some Kwik-E-Mart for some added culture to your vacation.

Pros: No thing
Cons: Every thing from the cleanness, front disk, no food, worst internet connection, bad communication, your reservation doesn't mean u get a room when u go over there, dirty beach, room stings, not sure about bugs but possible, the staff is so rude, no water to drink, no breakfast, basically this hotel should be closed for rebuilding from the beginning

Pros: It was close to the water and the pool was okay.
Cons: The rooms were not great. A few ceiling tiles were on the brink of collapse, the wall unit air conditioner looked like a lint trap from a dryer, and the comforter had stains. There was also no HBO as advertised and only dry muffins for breakfast.

2.8
Pros: Nothing
Cons: Our door didn't always lock. If you pushed on the door hard enough it popped open, but the front desk people said it was fine and not broken. Carpet was so filthy that your feet were black after walking across it even after your shower. Tons of mold and mildew on shower tiles. Very outdated. Probably hasn't been remodeled since the seventies. And our room wasn't serviced each day. Had to go and get clean towels each day. This was our last stay at mackinaw because we are moving to Arizona. We thought we'd have one great last vacation here before we moved, but it was barely tolerable.

Pros: The view of water beautiful.

Did the job, provided a place for my family to rest their heads on the way back down from the UP. But that’s about it. It may have been a nice hotel at some point, but now it just looks like it’s suffered the effects of age. Cobwebs everywhere along the outside, making it appear dirty. The beach area was not kept clean. Glad I wasn’t spending more than one night.

Pros: This hotel is a great price for being on the beach. Beautiful view. Hotel pool was nice for the kids to take a break from the hustle & bustle of the town and island. Maintenance guy was very nice and able to resolve our issue (key broke in the lock).
Cons: We were on the 3rd floor and there was no elevator. After a full day on the island we were surprised to have to climb more stairs with all of our luggage. Breakfast was ok if you wanted waffles or toast. Being gluten free, there were no options.

Pros: Gorgeous view - unexpected since we never seem to be able to get those kinds of room on our budget! Was advised checking was after 4:00 PM, but arrived around 3:00 just to do the paperwork and were able to the key and be in our room then.
Cons: Kids (5 & 8) wished there wre some uses at the waterpark...but they still had a good time. Front desk person wasn't the most cheerful, but was not rude...just matter-of-fact.
