We paid $100 on hotwire (vs $107 for the Clarion on choicehotels.com). The motel room was the smallest I have ever seen. I could not not open my suitcase in between the one queen sized bed and the wall. The whole room was about 8 feet wide. The gentleman at the counter was helpful and friendly. The room was not... more

The hotel gives this false and misleading account of their room from the reservation page: "Contemporary, beautifully decorated room with 2 queen beds, in courtside setting near large indoor pool/spa and guest laundry. Full bath w/ hair dryer. Refrigerator and/or coffee maker avail. Free breakfast. Located at the foot of the Mackinaw Bridge w/ scenic shoreline walkway." This is a... more

My wife and I stayed at the Parkside Inn two years ago, and decided to stay there again on this most recent trip. Tony was very kind and friendly, explaining what was where and how to get there. Breakfast had the usual cereal, donut holes, breads, etc, but also included sausage with scrambled egg patties. Coffee was great. The only... more

The Parkside Inn was the last hotel that we stayed at on our family vaccation. We had stayed at 5 hotels all together. We found the owners (especially the lady) to be cranky...she failed to answer any of the questions we asked, and never smiled. The hot tub was DIRTY and full of foam (YUCKY). The hot breakfast was good;... more

We stayed witth our frinds and had a great time. Could not ask for a better location, rooms were spotless, good breakfast, and we had a blast in the heated pool and spa. Going back to the same place again this summer. P.S. If you want a great view from your room, upgrade to the bridge view or lake view... more

When we got to our room I decided to read the reviews (better late than never) but I was happy to report we had no problems there . The room was decent for the price though I paid more than what the online price was. The breakfast was what you expect for free, both days it was gravy and biscuits.... more

My wife and I arrived during a rainstorm. We requested a non-smoking room and were told that if we smoked in the room we could be penalized. When we checked the room it smelled of smoke. I was raining so I did not walk back and tell them that there was the smell of smoke in the room until the... more

We arrived in Mackinaw City, earlier than we expected and did not have reservations after checking out several hotels we learned that the prices are VERY negotiable. We stopped at 3 hotels and the prices were lowered drastically when they realized we were not staying when they quoted us $178 then offered us several prices down to less than $100,... more

I recently stay at the Parkside Inn and must say I am very impressed not only with how clean this hotel is..but how friendly the clerk was during check in.. I had a wonderful view of the bridge and park..paid a very reasonable price for that view. This older hotel was in very good condition and linens and towels in... more
