8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Geneva that stayed in September 2009Five months after our stay at your hotel, it's a little difficult to remember it exactly,especially when we stayed at 3 other hotels on our trip. I know it was very nice and up to our standards completely. I guess we have stayed at better(although probably more expensive)so therefore I don't rate it outstanding.These comments are from a verified stay

8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Cincinnati that stayed in September 2009We were very pleased with our stay at the Best Western Dockside Waterfront. We stayed for four nights. Our only complaint is that the breakfast menu was the same every day. It was great the first morning but not appealing by the fourth day!! We would consider staying there again. ThanksThese comments are from a verified stay

8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Houghton that stayed in September 2009The two rooms were clean, large, and comfortable. The breakfast area was far from the room and "average" as far as the food selection was concerned. The price of the room was very good and I would definitely stay again, even though the breakfast was somewhat disappointing.These comments are from a verified stay

8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Creston that stayed in October 2009Was very clean & comfortable room.

8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Rockport that stayed in September 2009The room was good. The breakfast was OK. I would have preferred a sit down breakfast with fresh made items. The best thing about the room was location of the motel and our balcony overlooking Lake Huron. THAT part was outstanding! I hope to come up again in the future.These comments are from a verified stay

8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Lincoln that stayed in September 2009The staff was very helpful. Rooms were cleaned well. We appreciated the first floor room. The breakfast area definitely needed more help. Seems there was only one person to take care of that large room and many people. We liked the location of the motel also. Overall, we would return if ever back to Mackinaw City.These comments are from a verified stay

8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Sterling Heights that stayed in September 2009It is a long time ago to remember details. We think the room was on the small size and the breakfast was short of expectations. We did tell ourselves that next time we would try the Hamilton Inn but this was not an unpleasant stay.These comments are from a verified stay
