Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Hotel Verified Hotel Customer stayed in August 2024It was a great stay for the price we payed. It was roughly $130 both nights thanks to the Chamber of Tourism. Is we had paid anywhere else, the same stay would have been $389 for one night. If it were those prices I would have been disgusted. Minor suggestion, try cleaning the bedrook doors. They're very dirty and sticky.These comments are from a verified stay1 person found this helpful. Did you find this helpful?|5 out of 5 stars

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Judith from Traverse City stayed in June 2024Was a very nice room, liked the large bathroom. Plenty of room for use with walker etc. Only Problem we had was the bed was too high for us. My daughter chose to sleep on the couch which worked fine for her. My self I took on the challenge of the bed, which took me several tries the first time but then I developed a technique of flopping into it. Was nice and soft when I accomplished it. Ha,ha. A bit of a challenge for mid-seventy with severe arthritis that flared up that week...of course. I would certainly book there again.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Hotel Verified Hotel Customer stayed in October 2023We were hoping that breakfast is back to the usual waffle, bacon, sausage and scrambled eggs, since covid restrictions is over, but it was not. Can't help to compare it from the Cheboygan location, where we stayed at couple months ago. But overall, the stay was good. Convenient location , and the room was clean. Just 1 minor issue, which I'm sure they would have fixed it right away. The bathroom light went out on the day of our check out.These comments are from a verified stay3 people found this helpful.

Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside Waterfront Kevin from Standish stayed in April 2024The stay we had was very nice and amazing the only negative thing is that People that do not have reservations has access to the pool through the back door I think the doors should have to use your door key to get in and the pool it's self was not that clean when we got bavk to our room ans changed we left our wet clothes in the tub we left and came back they stuck bad and we was only gone for a hour and we ended up having to put them outside.
