Patient and professional,

The trip was originally booked under one name however that person was not able to go. That person was able to email the hotel and explain the situation, and the hotel was able to accommodate the person in place, with added proof. SImple easy no problem. We also had a snafu with our bank as they thought our card was stolen and declined the purchase of the reservation. The people at the front desk were patient and professional while we dealt with the bank snafu. The room was clean and spacious, great water pressure in the shower- I HATE going to a hotel that's fantastic and had dribbles for pressure. THe breakfast was decent, nothing fancy, kept simple. We were able to leave our vehicle in the parking lot after we checked out to take a ferry to the island, and then come back and get it later in the day. Don't let the name fool you- budget may be in the name, and give you the impression that this is a pay by the hour type of hotel, but this is anything but that. Big standards,great perks, at a great price. We will be back for sure.. this time with everyone on the list.

​We had a great experience at Budget Host Inn. The room was exceptionally clean, which we truly appreciated. We stayed in a two-bedroom unit, which was perfect for traveling with our 15-month-old. It provided much-needed extra space for naps and early bedtimes. ​The location is ideal, being close to downtown and within walking distance of Shepler's Ferry. This made getting to Mackinac Island super convenient. The staff was friendly and welcoming. We'd definitely stay here again!

The property is dated but has updated restrooms. Reasonably priced - breakfast options were bagels, bagels, waffles, muffins, oatmeal and cereal during our stay. Easy walk to shepplers ferry There is an Arnold ferry option available further down (we did not use but wanted to share all options) B.C. Pizza very close and very budget friendly for our family of 4 Be sure to leave used towels outside of your room so they will provide fresh towels. Overall, worth a try if you are looking for a budget place to stay! Kids loved the indoor pool!

Didn't realize when we booked it that this would be the closest hotel to the ferries! Loved the location, staff were so sweet, and for the price, it's a perfect stay! My only complaints were that the room was a bit musty and the TV barely had channels that worked. But if you could care less about both of those things, then it's a 10/10!
