Great motel!

This motel is really nice and so close to a 5 star. But they need a little more investment in basic stuff like paint and drywall. I'd come back for sure - I just want to see them cross the finish line. Bed was comfortable, room was clean, service was great.

Very adequate motel room, price was right. Bed was comfortable and room was clean. Only complaint was that it smelt like they bleached the entire room before we arrived, but I guess that is preferred over a stinky room. Would also recommend bringing your own TP because you get what you pay for. Great central location between the lake and the downtown area, walkable to both. Made for a nice stay in Manistee, would be open to staying there again in the future.

Motel gem

I've never stayed in a motel with cuter decor. It may be older, but location (by water) and price point were great. Appreciated the fridge/microwave. Only wish there had been a way to get coffee or tea before the front desk opened at 8 am. We had to leave early and there were no options in the room itself.
