This is my second stay at the Monarch Motel. For the price it is a good room. The mattress could be updated and the water had a sulfur smell, but I would stay there again, for sure.

Everything about this place is exceptional! The owner has taken updating, remodeling, decorating to the next level A+++++. She is very friendly and accommodating. This is our 2nd visit in 2 years - and we plan to schedule more time there in the coming years (we have family in Cheboygan that we visit regularly).

The room was attractive and extremely clean and the bed and shower were both excellent. It was a little musty but running the AC took care of it. The only drawback was that the only lock to the room is the one in the doorknob, no bolt or chain, but the neighborhood didn’t feel unsafe so we just set luggage in front of the door. Would definitely stay here again.

Nicely kept small motel. Staff was not present on site but there was a note on the door showing us to the room and a phone number for questions. This was not an issue for us at all. Room was clean, bed was comfortable, shower was hot. Overall it was a great stay for a small, inexpensive room.

The room was a great experience as a place to stay while we were attending to a family emergency. The room was clean with also convenient check in / check out. We would stay at the motel again in the future and would recommend the room to others.

The Monarch is everything you expect from a small, privately owned, older, and reasonably priced motel. It was clean and well maintained. Everything worked. Staff was friendly and accessible. I'd stay there again.

Just okay. Quiet. Six three partner couldn’t take a shower comfortably since the shower head was low, pillows need upgraded and one of the mattresses was old and saggy. Dirty coffee mugs when we checked in. Internet barely worked. Won’t return or recommend unfortunately.
