8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Mount Pleasant that stayed in September 2018Even though it was cold and rainy outside we walked to do some shopping and enjoyed our beautiful view from our balcony in our room. Loved how we were walking distance to were we wanted to go. The service was great.

8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Big Rapids that stayed in September 2018Room was very nice. Only "complaint" I would have is that I asked the desk clerk for information about the Headlands dark sky park and she knew nothing about it and suggested I look in the display of tourist places, etc. NOTHING in there but I found where I could get a tattoo!!! LOL. But seriously, it was a good stay and I really liked finding the room at the price we got on your website. Kudos.These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from St Thomas that stayed in September 2018Hotel was great. We were glad we picked this hotel. We did have one incident that was upsetting on our trip. We and our guests went across the street to the Toast A Go for dinner buffet. The waitress told us they were giving a 10% discount that night. We paid the bill and not till after they closed did we look at bill again and we were overcharged almost 10.00 because we never got the discount the waitress said would be added. First thing next day we went and seen a very rude manager who got calculator out and admitted we got overcharged but said there was nothing he could or would do for us since it was the next day now. This is definitely not how any establishment should treat a customer.These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Ypsilanti that stayed in September 2018Our room faced towards the beach, and we were able to listen to the waves all night long since the door to the porch could be opened. We also enjoyed conversation on the porch with my brother and his wife, who came along for this trip. The hotel was perfect for making a trip to Mackinac Island, as it's within walking distance of the ferries. Staff of the hotel were welcoming and the complementary breakfast was a good way to start the day.These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Chesterfield that stayed in August 2018We had a wonderful time in the city. We had to change rooms because our request was not honored to be located by our friends. The room had a dehumidifier in it which I continued to empty the water from multiple times a day.

The kids loved the pool.These comments are from a verified stay
