Breakfast was terrible. The pancakes that were served were horrible. Bacon was paper thin and extremely greasy. Yogurt was served in a large bowl instead of individual cups in a refrigerator. Coffee service table was average. Hot water was warm. Coffee tasted bitter. Mackinac suite was strange. You open up the room door and the bed was right there near the entrance. The living room was in the back where the balcony is. In between was the kitchenette and bathroom. The room should have been setup the other way around. Meaning the bedroom should be in the back of the room with the fireplace and balcony where it is quiet. With the bedroom located right near the entrance we heard the ding ding of the elevator and guests talking. The elevator was extremely slow, bouncy, and noisy. They had delicious chocolate chip cookies for ever guest every afternoon. These were offered Thursday afternoon through Sunday only. Unfortunately, we will never stay at this place again.

Ok but won’t stay there again

I stayed here because several friends thought the Cherry Tree was a good place to stay while at a hockey tournament in May, midweek. The room was clean but small, looked out the interior window to the indoor pool area and other rooms could see in if you left the blinds open. The price was listed at 170 per night but other fees made it over $205 per night. The breakfast was scrambled eggs, sausage and pancakes, nothing special. The staff was very nice and helpful. I just don’t believe it was worth the money for the amenities. There was a lot of similar hotels with vacancies at considerabe less cost. Will not stay there again

We had a wonderful time. The space and view is what sold us. The carpet was dated, torn and soiled but considering everything else it was acceptable. The whole facility could use updating but if the rates are appropriate it is acceptable.
