Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Jon from St Clair Shores stayed in May 2021The reason for the 3 star review is, for me, the main purpose of a hotel stay is a place to sleep. The bed was so hard it was like sleeping on the floor, otherwise the hotel was fineThese comments are from a verified stay6 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|4 out of 5 stars

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Heather from Taylor stayed in May 2021Room was mostly clean, a couple hiccups, nothing nasty. The pool was over chlorinated, it bleached our swimsuits. The site bragged a hot breakfast but in reality only offered a grab n go. Of which every single day was an apple, muffin, water, nut bar and either an apple sauce or yogurt. Not the hotels fault but the flies/bugs were running rampant and MANY crept into our room. Unsettling. All in all, I think if I return.. it won't be to this hotel. Maybe the Hamilton, which is actually right by the ferry anyway.These comments are from a verified stay8 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|4 out of 5 stars
Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Leslie from Adrian stayed in May 2021I reserved a beachfront balcony room, we ended up in basement room with patio that we could not use because the seagulls were all over it. The room was big, very clean and staff was very nice. I didn't say anything about being disappointed so it was my fault we didn't get what we we expected.These comments are from a verified stay4 people found this helpful.
