Bay View Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent place to stay! Staff very helpful"

Hotel Perry

8/10 Good

"Great location! Very easy check-in process and staff was all very nice. One major thing that needs to be added to the guest rooms are mini fridges. When you are paying almost $500 per night that is just 1 amentie that should be standard in the rooms. We also like to keep a couple beverages cold, and also had left-overs the one evening from the restaurant we ate at and had to throw them away due to not having a way to keep them cold in our room. We also ran out of body wash in the shower on night #2 mid shower which was a huge inconvenience. They come in and turn your bed over every night and that is one thing that should definitely be checked each night to make sure that none of the shampoos/conditioners/body washes are empty or near empty since they are the kind that they have to refill in the showers. You also do not want a room that is close to their outside tent that they have weddings in every single night on the weekends as you could hear the music pretty late into the evening."

Baymont by Wyndham Petoskey

8/10 Good

"Cheap option. Friendly staff was the best part. The room was okay but the bathroom needed some fixes and updating. Shuttle to casino is easy and convenient."
