We love this motel. We’ve always had great customer service, very friendly. I’ve had conversations with multiple staff and they’re always nice and engaging. Our rooms we’ve stayed in are always clean. The rooms are pretty basic, however, always really clean. We enjoy the modern look. This is our go to place to stay every time we visit Marquette. The price is right, cheaper than hotels around but just as nice, maybe even better than other hotels in the area.

I’ve stayed at Cedar Motor Inn at least a half dozen times. Most of the time it’s been great. This last time - not so much. Our check-in experience was poor. The rep at the desk was very distracted and made check-in difficult. This was our first time staying with our kids with us. Every other time it had been just us (a couple). We had a two bed room. One of the beds was absolutely terrible. Worse than just a crummy mattress. The mattress was concave and the bed seemed to fold in. I told the front desk and their response was “I’ve been told all of our beds are not great” and they couldn’t do anything about it (they weren’t busy, they could have moved rooms). The room was hot even with the heat controls off. We had to have the air conditioning on even though the daily highs were around 50. First time with kids and the website says they have a new game room. Teenager was a little excited about that. I asked about it and they said they do have a game room but it’s only for rent. Would be good info to put in the website.

Something in air the room was aggravating and the thermostat made the room too warm. The saving grace was the fan mode on AC unit as it purified the air a little and cooled the room to an acceptable temperature.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The photos online made this property look much nicer than it actually is. The pool, sauna, and hot tub areas looked outdated, with a musty smell and no towels available. Our room also had a strong musty odor — we had to go out and buy Febreze just to make it tolerable. At the pool and sauna, there wasn’t enough seating or space for small groups or families to relax comfortably. There were only a few chairs, and it didn’t make sense why there wasn’t more available for guests — especially for a hotel of this size. If I wanted to stay somewhere that smelled damp and old, I could’ve just stayed at my camp for free. On Saturday night, the front desk lady even asked what room we were staying in while we were in swimsuits trying to use the pool — it came off as judgmental and made us uncomfortable. The pool itself was overcrowded and noisy, with people who didn’t seem to belong to the hotel using it. The only positives were the location and parking — easy access to restaurants and the highway — but overall, it wasn’t worth the price. I wouldn’t recommend staying here again until the property updates its rooms and amenities.

The staff was kind. You get what you pay for. Very average hotel. I wish the hot tub was working but was not a deal breaker. The kids enjoyed the pool. Was perfect for our short stay with the dogs and kids!

Disappointing Breakfast - ate elsewhere

Breakfast was non-existent. They only had a couple slices of bread, muffins, 3 types of cereal (no milk), and microwaved french toast sticks. I recommend the hotel remove the breakfast option completely if this is all they offer. Room cleanliness and amenities were standard for this price range. Would stay again.

Never again. Balcony you use to access the rooms on 2nd floor felt completely unsafe. Floors in the room had so many spongy spots. Rooms were large, and beds were okay, but that was the end of anything decent. Not ONE HOOK to hang coats or towels in the entire room, not even the bathroom. Linoleum floors felt gritty, not a place I'd ever walk around barefoot. No hair dryer, no coffee maker. BARE BONES place, with little to recommend it, other than "cheap".
