10/10 Excellent
"We come to Manistee at least once every summer and we always stay at this hotel. Staff is always very nice and accommodating. Our room was very comfortable and my daughter and I always enjoy the pool and hot tub. Other than the toilet running off and on constantly we had no complaints. As others said, it would be nice if breakfast had a few healthier options but we still made due and the lady who works in the dining area was really nice. It does make me sad because we plan on coming back to Manistee in the Fall and we had to choose a different place to stay because since it went under Econo Lodge the cost has gone up significantly and the hotel is pretty much exactly the same as it has been for years. Please consider making your prices reasonable again so your loyal customers don’t have to go elsewhere."
