Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Aimee from Macomb stayed in September 2015We enjoyed our stay. The hotel was clean, comfortable and well appointed.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Christine from South Haven stayed in September 2015The room was clean and had a great view of the straits. Unfortunately, not the bridge. Usually we stay farther east along the coast. Not the hotels fault. Breakfast was typical of hotel breakfast when trying to provide for a lot of people over the course of several hours. The good thing was you could get breakfast early & not have to wait until restaurants opened. The pool & hot tub area were clean. Staff was helpful and considering it was full my room was cleaned in a timely manner.These comments are from a verified stay94 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|4 out of 5 stars

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Christy from Paw Paw stayed in August 2015We were pleased with the check in, friendly staff, room and general feel of the hotel. There was a bit of a problem with the water draining from the tub and the toilet flushing, it got stopped up the morning of our departure. When we called for help we were brought a nearly worthless plunger and we were in a hurry to catch a ferry. It was a rugged way to end an otherwise very nice stay.These comments are from a verified stay101 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|5 out of 5 stars
