BUGS! Killed 3 within an hour. YUCK! Also this is a two story motel but has no elevator. The room I was given had only a hottub which was miserable for me to climg into and out of. I would have preferred a shower stall or at least a normal tub/shower. Will never stay at a Rodeway Inn again.

It was OK. Definitely not worth the money it cost. The bed was lumpy and uncomfortable. The room was reasonably clean.

No issues, the room was clean and in good condition. The AC was very cold. ☺️☺️☺️ waffles, juice, and basic breakfast was appreciated. Would have appreciated more towels, but they provided when we asked.

We stayed for one night during Gus Macker Weekend. Our experience unfortunately had barking dogs all night (understanding this isn’t direct result of the Inn), coupled with our smoke alarm chirping from what I assume was low battery. We will look for alternative option in the future, but this was a good alternative for very last minute booking on what is known to be a very busy weekend in Ludington.

It was difficult to get from the car to the walkway as the snow was piled up and only a narrow icy way was made.

Great stay

We got into our room quickly and the room was clean and smelled fresh. Thru were very accommodating for us and let us park our motorcycles where they wouldn't get rained on. Very nice people and great place to stay. We look forward to the waffle maker every visit.
