We spent two nights here. It was a wonderful stay. Walking distance to the Ferry to Mackinac Island. Our room was very clean, comfortable beds, clean bathroom and nice hot shower. Highly recommend and would stay again if we get back up there again.
Rooms are not cramped. There is a coffee pot, microwave and fridge. Right off the main street through town. A small hotel that isn't crammed full of people.
A friendly welcome by staff upon arrival to the older, one floor motel style accommodation that has been remodeled throughout. Room was very clean, spacious and comfortable. Hsk daily, unless requested otherwise. Reasonably priced and convenient to the Ferry Dock for trips to Mackinac Island. Will definitely stay again!
We had such a great visit and will be coming back. Having never been to St Ignace, we read reviews of this motel and went for it.
We had a friendly, informative check in, a super clean room and were pleasantly surprised with the chairs that let us relax after a long day of driving on the main road. The property was kept up and I wish we lived closer to return on a regular basis. Thank you, we had a wonderful stay!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Basic, older motel but somewhat updated. Clean, comfortable, friendly owner, convenient location to ferry and restaurants.
This is an old-school motel that we always stay at when in St. Ignace. Don't let the outside looks fool you. Even though it looks outdated, the rooms are very spacious, clean, and comfortable.
Very quiet, clean and comfortable. Could have used a towel rack in the bathroom - no place to hang our hand towel. The location was perfect to catch the ferry to Mackinac Island. (The asthetics regarding the grass around the building needed to be taken care of.) Other than that, we'd stay again.
This place was a gem. It was very clean and quiet. Location was perfect and check in was a breeze. Staff was friendly and helpful. I would absolutely return again.
Very nice Motel very close to the Mackinac Ferries. You could walk from the Motel to the Ferries without too much trouble. Room was clean and check on was easy and friendly.
It was very clean, quiet, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Also it was very easily accessible to the ferries and restaurants, either by veicke or walking.
This motel was exceptionally comfortable and spotlessly clean. Although I had driven past it numerous times, I had not given it much attention. However, I was pleasantly surprised when I needed a last-minute booking. I would highly recommend this motel, especially considering the cost savings associated with booking here.
