Older property but in a very convenient location. Easy walk into town or to the lake along the river walk. Rooms are pretty basic. Microwave & refrigerator in the room. Keurig coffeemaker in the office so only available during office hours. Rooms really need room darkening curtains and pillows are terrible, so bring your own. A/C is loud but that helps block the noise from neighbors going in and out of cars right outside your room.

Retro looking motel on the Manistee river. Simple but clean. Comfortable beds, larger refrigerator than most hotels, plenty of storage space in dresser and under the beds. Glider chairs and picnic table facing the river for nice view of the sunset. Close to downtown and Lake Michigan.

Great location

The location is perfect, close enough to downtown but a quiet location. Our room didn't have a walk out so we didn't have anywhere to sit outside. Rooms with walkouts have chairs, picnic tables and a bbq. Even in the room there was no where to sit but the bed. A chair or two would've been great. There was air conditioning, a fridge and microwave and the room was a good size.

Not a bad place to stay, just not great. Photos show a nice pool but pool is actually out of service. Bed was very uncomfortable. Room was mostly clean and in a great location.
