We made a spur of the moment decision to see Mackinaw City and this hotel was the first we came to. It's right off of I-75, so it super easy to find. It's not right downtown, so its not so congested. Rates were resonable, since it was after Labor Day, so we decided to stay. Breakfast was good, everything was well stocked. The rooms deffiently are dated; ours was clean, which is what I care about. The employees are all really nice and they are locals too!! So, if you have questions, they are a great resource. Their breakfast room is always opened with drinks and they have outdoor seating (as well as indoor) which I bet is great in the Summer. Overall we had a great experience here and cant wait to come back next year and try out their grills too!!

i stayed here 2 times and both times great. i have friends that work on the island so i stayed on the island many times but the last two visits i was strapped for cash so i saw this hotel and i will NOT stay at another hotel when i visit mackinaw. i didnt want the same old fast food so Steven and zach told me where they go to eat or just a night out. i read the other reviews i saw NO bed bugs, the towles were totally clen and i called at 1 am because stupid me knocked the towles in the jacucci and zack came to my room with no problem with in 10 min. the water temp was perfect for a relaxing after a busey day on the isalnd. IF YOU VISIT MACKINAW CITY STAY AT AMERICAS BEST VALUE INN.

We stayed the weekend of the 14th also. Our room was fine - no bugs, no bad bedding! It is an older motel. The carpeting is old style as are the bedspreads, but the room was clean and comfortable. A little more care could be taken with vacummng by using the wand to get along the wall etc. It was chilly in the evening and the heat worked fine. The hotel is not fancy, but if you are just looking for a place to sleep and watch a little tv, it wll suffice. Who spends a lot of tiem at the motel when you're in Mackinaw City anyways?!? It is at the south end of town in a quiet location on the edge of the city. They offer a continental breakfast which is average - b&g, make your own waffels. they did run out of coffee and "had to defrost more"? The O.J. was watered down. But, there were still a lot of people there every morning enjoying it. I got a "buy 2 nites, stay a 3rd free" deal so that is why I stayed there. If I were to pay full price, I would probably pay a little more and stay at one of the motels on Lake Huron.

As of Friday, 14th at 12 o'clock in the morning the America's Best Value Inn had bed bugs in at least two of it's rooms on the second floor. And when we told them that there was bed bugs that looked at us like we where dum and did get there act together until we said " we let everyone in the complex know there is a bed bug infesation." They were not customer friendly and did not make any form of imberstment for the inconvence. So, I strongly advise anyone considering this hotel/inn to look else where. They are extremely under hotel health code violations if they have bed bugs and didn't really care to do anything until someone wants to make a big scene. Most of the things were broken hot tube, reck room was closed and we where suppost to have bottom floor because we have people with bad knees and they gave it to another group after telling use we would have the bottom floor. So, service aka not good at all, honestly how ever runs the hotel should go back to school for hotel managemnet because there is NO customer services.
