Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Darrell from Summerset stayed in September 2012Room exceeded my expectations, upgrade was a plus, staff were polite and met our needs. Most definitely would recommend to someone else. Two things: 1) Our room had a one speed/not very hot hair dryer; and 2) Our room was on the waterfront and we had lots of problems connecting to the WiFi -- so much that we had to go up to the hotel lobby to get a consistent connection.These comments are from a verified stay93 people found this helpful.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Debra from Brook Park stayed in September 2012I've stayed there 3 times. hotel is good, but seemed to be noisier than i remember. next time i will request a top floor. i could really hear the upstairs activity. i also think it could have been a little cleaner upon our arrival. it wasn't awful or anything i even called the desk about, i just feel it could have been spit-shined a little better. but overall it is nice and in a good location. the breakfast bar is great for a "freebie" and i would stay again!These comments are from a verified stay58 people found this helpful.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Debra from Wonder Lake stayed in September 2012Accomodations were clean and updated. A few things to make a stay a little bit better 1)a liquid no-dary creamer instead of powdered. 2)Include yogurt in breakfast selections.3) Include mouthwash, body lotion and shower cap in rooms. 4)In-room safe.These comments are from a verified stay70 people found this helpful.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Deanna from Westland stayed in August 2012The only complaint would be that if you call the front desk for towels, it takes a long time to get them, you may even have to wait and call again several hours later, so be sure to call wayyyy before you need them!These comments are from a verified stay78 people found this helpful.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Diane from St. Clair Shores stayed in August 2012The motel has very helpful and friendly staff. The room was clean, big, and cozy. The breakfast is wonderful. Drawback to breakfast is that getting to the 3rd floor is cumbersome. It is great to have an exercise room, but that room is not in the best condition. I would definately consider coming back to this same motel the next time I visit Mackinaw City.These comments are from a verified stay73 people found this helpful.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Tracy from Macomb stayed in August 2012Room was clean with a great view.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Kim from MONROE stayed in August 2012Great breakfast! Waffles were a favorite for everyone! Had a double queen room on the water...room was small but clean. Other downfall was that the hotel hallways were outside. Had to walk outside to breakfast, pool, front desk, etc...Hotel is in my eyes, the BEST location to walk to town. Would stay again.These comments are from a verified stay67 people found this helpful.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Tammy from Egg Harbor stayed in August 2012We were very pleased with our stay at the Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Teresa from Traverse City stayed in August 2012Nice, clean room. Breakfast was good. Beach chairs nice for any time of day/night. Staff smiled occassionally. Price very high. My family and I are regulars and are quite often moved to a different hotel in the winter. Would give 5 stars if the check-in staff seemed like they cared and if there were some type of price concessions for frequent visitors to Best Western Plus Dockside.These comments are from a verified stay92 people found this helpful.
