The pool was murky and gross. I couldn’t see the bottom. It was visibly dirty. The pool was a big reason to stay there and we were disappointed we couldn’t use it.

Really loved our stay at Holiday Inn. By far one of the cleanest rooms we stayed in. Carpet, furniture was clean. No stale odors in the room. The rooms were large and comfortable. We will definately book here again.

Everything was fine. Parking is tight right next to the building except in their overflow lot. No sign for front entrance so it was a little harder to distinguish which door to go in. Overall, very pleased with the hotel.

The location is awesome. Shepler’s ferry and downtown Mackinaw are less than a mile walk from the hotel, and it’s an easy walk. The state park lake shore and fort are a five minute walk. The hotel is clean, breakfast was awesome (eggs, pancakes, cinnamon rolls, sausage, biscuits and gravy, and other items). Our room was a king with couch, very spacious. The only negative: our room was on the top floor above I75. It was VERY noisy when certain vehicles would drive by on the highway. I wish I could have turned the AC fan on continuously to muffle the noise, but it wouldn’t stay on. Bring something to muffle the highway noise in case your room is on that side. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Great stay as front desk were very nice. Room was extremely clean. Bed was very comfortable/ felt very safe. Unfortunately our room was not ready on time so we had to sit after an already long day. Also, no fruit or yogurt type options at breakfast. Room was not quiet.

Incredibly noisy room. Heard literally everybody. Was located on the first floor near the lobby though so expected. Quiet hours were not respectful. People in the lobby until at least midnight loudly laughing. Front desk did get me in early and were super friendly.
