Hello: I Would Really Rate It a 3-1/2 Star Leaning Towards Good
Traveler Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Econo Lodge Bayview MotelEconolodge Bayview #7511 stayed August 2013. Linda from Shelby TownshipHello: 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. -

The Room Was Clean and Comfortable
Traveler Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Econo Lodge Bayview MotelEconolodge Bayview #7332 stayed August 2013. Judith from RockfordThe 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) -

Econo Lodge Bayview MotelEconolodge Bayview #7331 stayed August 2013. Jennifer L. from St. ThomasOur 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 -

The Location of the Hotel is Excellent
Traveler Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Econo Lodge Bayview MotelEconolodge Bayview #6999 stayed July 2013. Lynn from PittsburghThe 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. -
