8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from White Lake that stayed in September 2022Love the room and beach front access. Pool area is comfy too. Breakfast worker was amazing keeping items stocked and room clean. Downfall is the meal provided was substandard. Breakfast sandwich lacked food-mostly bread, need variety of fruit- apples only. I will stay here again but venture out for breakfast.These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Plainwell that stayed in July 2022The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and all staff that we encountered were friendly and helpful. The location is perfect - walking distance to restaurants, shopping, and the ferries, and easy access to the highway to cross the bridge. We chose the BW Plus after reading other guest reviews, and we weren’t disappointed. Would definitely stay here again.These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Greenville that stayed in May 2022It was a pre-season stay but the regular shops were open and that was good. The check in hostess helped us out by saying that some of the other things we had reserved were probably not open due to the weather and season. Did not think of that. That was a big help there. But we are retired and enjoyed just staying there. The whole town is full of memories to us from other stays. Good job!!!These comments are from a verified stay

8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Clyde that stayed in August 2022Room was clean , most of the staff seemed very nice, our lock on our balcony door only worked when it felt like it I guess wasn’t worrisome as we were on the 3rd floor but should be fixed. I wish they would of kept the breakfast open longer as my husband went back for coffee & there was none I’m assuming they didn’t want to make more & the lobby was out also. Not everyone gets up early everyday either. Different variety of breakfast would of been nice then the same thing everydayThese comments are from a verified stay
