Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Kathy from Mounds View stayed in September 2019We had a great room with a balcony overlooking the water. Only problem was a neighbor who used the balcony as his smoking area so it meant we couldn't leave our door open as much as we would have liked. Breakfast was well stocked and had good variety. At times it was hard to find a table to sit at, but we shared a table and met some new people. Pool and hot tub were clean and so comfortable. Loved being able to use that. Weather wasn't the best, but when the skies allowed we used the beach. Staff was friendly and provided all we needed. Received a tip on buying our trip to the island directly at Sheplers so we could receive a veteran discount. Would definitely stay there again.These comments are from a verified stay33 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|4 out of 5 stars

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Martha from Lambertville stayed in September 2019Room was very clean and spacious... plenty of towels were provideds which was nice..the beach was really clean (no weeds/grass or debris). Very happy with our overnight stay. The staff was great and The coffee in the lobby was very good too. The only thing that would have made it better is if they provided flavored creamer as a option (always a nice bonus for me as I prefer flavored options... but that's not a deal breaker for me 😁)..overall very Happy with this hotel and would recommend it for sureThese comments are from a verified stay45 people found this helpful.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Patricia from Palatine stayed in September 2019The room was clean and very large. It felt like a studio apartment rather than a motel room. We had a small deck outside that faced the lake. It was great. I only wished that it were warmer when we visited so we could enjoy it a little more. It was great. The ladies at the front desk were extremely helpful in providing information about the ferry to the island and restaurants in the city. They were great!

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Laura from Fowler stayed in August 2019The staff was pleasant and the room was clean. The breakfast bar was awesome. We needed some help from maintenance and they seemed to have disappeared. But the front desk staff helped us and was very apologetic. I would say the hotels in the area are starting to show their age. For the prices they charge, they could spend some money on updates.These comments are from a verified stay47 people found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|5 out of 5 stars
