Mackinaw Beach and Bay Inn and Suites shows signs of age, but it is located right on the water with a lovely view of Lake Huron. The room tvs are small, but the channel selection is excellent. It's about a 20 minute walk to the center of town where shopping for souvenirs is located, so the Beach and Bay Inn is quiet. Suites with balconies are spacious and have a marvelous view of Mackinaw Island in the distance. The refrigerator and microwave enable the guest to do some cooking. There is a market/foodstore a few minutes by car from the Inn. The staff is helpful and friendly, especially the gentleman who came in at 4:30 AM each day to cook breakfast for the guests. My toilet would flush properly my first day and within an hour, two maintenance personnel came and got it working. I enjoyed my stay.

Too far from downtown
This hotel is about 1/2 mile from downtown where all the shops and restaurants are located. I was sorry we weren’t closer. The lobby was good but our room was run down, rust on the vents, dirty balcony. I thought I was booking 2rooms and it was one big room with the bathroom in the middle separating the beds. Not good if you want privacy.

There were a few things wrong with the room. A tile had come off the bathroom counter, chipped and it had been put back on with the chip. There was a hole in the ceiling of the shower which was plugged by a piece of paper. When we needed more toilet paper we had to come down to the lobby. When we asked for more pillows, they said I don’t think we have any.
