This is very nice place to stay. The room was clean and secure. The only bad thing is there is no ice machine and the tvs arnt smart tvs.. if it had those 2 things would of been perfect.
Loved my room at the GC Inn. Room was very clean and spacious. What I liked the most was there is no carpet it's hard wood floors. I hate hotels with carpets. Room had microwave and small refrigerator which comes in handy. Check in was easy everything digital. The common areas were nice and we used it to eat our breakfast. Location was perfect for our visit to Sleeping Bear Dunes and Mackinac. Overall a great stay and would definitely rent again if in the area. 100% recommend!!

Great place, good room, clean and attractive. A bit of a challenge to get into the hotel since you need codes for entry and room. Once we figured everything out it was very good. Had a great laugh, the pillow chocolates must have been there for a while, when we opened them they were grey! This is not a dealbreaker by any means, but it was quite funny. Everything was very clean and the room was excellent. We’d stay here again. A suggestions: shower needs a shelf of some sort to hold things, shampoo, shower gel, razor, etc. Aside from that, the place was well kept and nice, it is noisy being along the main road, but we knew that ahead of time, so it wasn’t an issue, the earplugs the hotel supplied helped also.
