Nice quiet hotel right across the street from Shepler’s Ferry and walking distance to several dining options. The hotel was clean and staff helpful and friendly. It seemed like the AC in the halls was out and there were a few small maintenance issues noticeable, but overall a great choice for a short stay.

For the price this hotel is clean and quiet. It’s also an easy walk to the ferry and downtown area. We had a very small issue with our room, Carrie the manager took care of it by moving us to a new room without hesitation. We are grateful for that and would not hesitate to stay here again.

We had a great experience at Budget Host Inn. The room was exceptionally clean, which we truly appreciated. We stayed in a two-bedroom unit, which was perfect for traveling with our 15-month-old. It provided much-needed extra space for naps and early bedtimes.
The location is ideal, being close to downtown and within walking distance of Shepler's Ferry. This made getting to Mackinac Island super convenient. The staff was friendly and welcoming. We'd definitely stay here again!
