Our stay at Days Inn Mackinaw City was not as expected. My sisters and I (all senior citizens) found the whole area dark and hard to maneuver. We had an upper floor room. The outside stairway light was out, and it was very hard to see the steps and climb, with or without a suitcase.
The parking lot was also dark; no outside lighting. Even the sign for Days Inn was out. We passed it twice, before realizing where it was.
The room was not impressive either. The door lock was broken and shaky. (We put things in front of the door at night.) There were small holes in the walls and peeling wallpaper. We lost power for a minute or so and tried calling the front desk. The phone did not work.
They said they had a continental breakfast, but that was just individually wrapped, unappetizing blueberry muffins with coffee. No decaf. And, hot chocolate packets with no hot water.
All and all, not a great place to stay. Nothing like the advertisement. Don't let the pictures fool you.
