Waste of money....
We arrived a little bit early for check-in. Both my son and I had to use the bathroom. The person that checked us and told us that we had to wait to use the bathroom until we got to our room. When we got to our room I let my son go first and he comes out and says, Mom I cannot use the bathroom so I asked why. The toilet was completely off of the plumbing. So we went back down to the lobby and she moved us to a room next door. When we got to the room the maid wasn't even done cleaning the room so she was rushed. She was very nice and apologized over and over and it wasn't her fault. When we went into the room it smelled bad The bathroom was horrible doesn't look like the bathtub had been cleaned in ages. My 3 year old didn't even want to use the bathroom because of the smell. The bathroom sink also leaked. We then learned that the pool was down for maintenance. The 2 days we were there they never opened the pool. With kids that was very disappointing. For almost $500 for 2 nights with a down pool, dirty room, half working arcade and fitness room.. it was a waste . Other travelers were also disgusted.

Mediocre hotel, not ideal for anyone with limited mobility, pool is not inside the building must walk outside across parking lot to use pool/hot tub/ arcade, 4 floor beach side requires you to use stairs, be prepared to walk, not horrible but not worth the amount you pay. Poor continental breakfast, beachfront unkept, messing broken items laying around. Linens stained, light bulbs burnt in multiple lamps.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the hotel was not clean and the beach/outdoor area was not well maintained. The WiFi never worked and the room was dirty. We had to have the linens changed because they looked they hadn’t been before we got there. The breakfast was ok but didn’t have a good selection and only one person trying to keep up with refilling the stations. The location was super convenient for the ferry and my kids loved being on the beach.

Satisfying stay
We had a beautiful room with a great balcony facing Lake Huron. We got to see fireworks Saturday night from our balcony. The only thing that was disappointing was their free continental breakfast. It was not fit to eat!
