Hello: I Would Really Rate It a 3-1/2 Star Leaning Towards Good

Traveler Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

Econo Lodge Bayview Motel
Econolodge Bayview #7511 stayed August 2013. Linda from Shelby Township

Hello: I would really rate it a 3-1/2 star leaning towards good, but will give a good rating anyway. The room was clean and comfortable and the size of the room was quite acceptable. However, the bathroom sink is way too small and there is absolutely no counter space. Basically, the bathroom itself is rather small. The staff were friendly and efficient. Price wise, I know it was Labor Day weekend and prices are always higher, but for a "good" rating room, it is overpriced. I did not gain anything on Sunday night by having the price higher than Saturday night. Thank you.

Centrally located and easily accesible. Didn't like the fact that the buffet and the Splash area were located at the Comfort Suites. This should have been better explained in the hotel information. Room was adequate. Rates were good.

Econolodge Bayview #7332 stayed August 2013. Judith from Rockford

The room was clean and comfortable, though not outstanding, but adequate for the price. Breakfast arrangements a bit unusual, but good once we found it. Staff was friendly. It was a good deal for our purposes. We definitely enjoyed Mackinaw City - took in the CG Cutter, Lighthouse, Fort Michilimackinac, lumberjack show, Old Mill Creek. It was a good getaway for just a few days time. We didn't even find it necessary to go to the Island nor cross the Bridge! (Done those other times long ago)

Our experience at the Bayview was very pleasent. Nice pool, didn't use the waterpark facility as my Grandaughter was too young, maybe next time. Included breakfast was very good. The room was quite nice. Rating would have been outstanding except we were on the second floor which wasn't so good for me. Thanks, David Suckling

Econolodge Bayview #6999 stayed July 2013. Lynn from Pittsburgh

The location of the hotel is excellent. The room was nice, however there was a puddle of water outside of our door (on the patio next to the outside pool) that didn't go away. The included breakfast was good, however the line was long and slow moving, and there weren't enough tables and chairs in the room to accommodate all the people.

Good Morning - Between July 3rd and July 7th

Traveler Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Econo Lodge Bayview Motel
Econolodge Bayview #6645 stayed July 2013. Robert from Bensenville

Good Morning - Between July 3rd and July 7th, I had three rooms reserved for three couples, including myself. First let me explain that I made the reservations because the other two couples either didn't have a computer to make them, or had looked into other motels and thought the prices were kind of high. I found the prices to be a little high, but not bad compared to some of the other motels in the area. And, maybe all lodging is going up - I haven't been able to afford a vacation for several years. A couple of years ago I brought my mother to the Mackinaw City area and we stayed at the Best Western on Huron. My mother paid for the trip, so I don't know what the lodging cost at that time. One of the couples complained of a certain odor - I didn't smell it, but it was described as a new construction odor. There were no other rooms available for them to switch. The other couple had a minor problem with water on the floor near the toilet. I didn't see it - it could have been condensation for all I know. I felt the staff took care of it in a reasonable amount of time. As far as my room was concerned - we had one with a jacuzzi. I cost a little more than the other rooms, but it was definitely worth it. The rooms came with passes to the water park (that we didn't use - not enough time, plus it was pretty crowded when we would have been able to go), and that could add to the cost of the rooms. The complimentary breakfast had a good variety of items - I ate there both mornings. I didn't use the outdoor pool, but the other couples did. All in all - I thought it was a very clean place and we had a good experience. Bob and Stacie from Bensenville, Illinois

We were in the "front" 10 lodges that this property has. The experience was great. The front office staff was nice, courteous and very accommodating. The Cabin in itself is great, spacious and comfy. If I were to pick on one thing that could have been better - it only had "1" bathroom :-) with 4 kids and us, there was a lot of waiting - but that's okay. We enjoyed our stay - will recommend it in a heartbeat! Easy access to the Freeway, the ferries for the Island and downtown Mackinaw.
