Budget Host Inn Manistique

What guests think

At Budget Host Inn Manistique, travelers frequently find recently renovated, no-frills rooms with comfortable beds and generally clean interiors, making it a practical stop for an overnight rest, though the motel exterior looks dated and the former pool appears closed.

Guests appreciate parking at the door and fair value, but breakfast is minimal (often just lobby coffee and pastries) and there's no in-room coffee. Bathrooms and fixtures can be small or dated, with occasional issues like low showerheads, musty humidity, and noisy or ineffective A/C. Staff are widely described as friendly, though front-desk availability and oversight can be inconsistent. Expect a basic, budget stop with updated rooms and limited amenities.

The property is very run down. The sheets and pillows were stained, as were the towels. The bathtub did not drain. The skeleton of a pool sits outside perhaps hearkening back to a brighter time of this establishment. The carpets were also stained. There were dead bugs on the ceiling in the bathroom. The staff was nice, and she understood my concerns, and I cannot blame her. But the property is not one I would recommend, especially at this price point. I wasn't looking for fancy, but I was looking for functional, and I did not get that.

Although it doesn’t look like much from the outside, this motel was a clean, comfortable bed for weary travelers. It is a couple miles outside of town so nothing is walkable. They have renovated the rooms so there are usb ports, new microwave and refrigerator, etc. There was no coffee in the room, but it was available in the lobby. There was also no ironing board, though I don’t generally use one. We would probably stay here again if in the area.

Room was nicer than the appearance of the outside dictates. Was very pleased with condition and cleanliness of the room. Only drawback was the height of the showerhead. I’m 6ft tall and the showerhead was around 4 1/2ft. Was on my knees to wash my hair and face. Maybe install an adjustable showerhead. I feel the property itself could use some cosmetic help. Spruce up the landscaping a little, do something with abandoned pool and get some letters for the sign. But as far as the the room itself, which is the most importantly part, I was happy.

I was told when we checked in that we had been given an upgrade. If that was an upgrade I would hate to see the other rooms. Our room was dirty, not much worked, lighting was scarce, spiders were everywhere. Just not at all what we expected after reading the reviews and looking through the pictures..we were glad to leave there..

The motel being an older building has obviously been renovated with a more modern look. It was clean. The staff and other patrons staying there were all very nice. It was a little farther out of town than I would like but it's not so far to be totally inconvenient. We were able to see and do what we wanted to. The cost was much better for our budget as apposed to the other options available. We would most definitely stay there again.

This was an exceptional budget hotel. The room was spotless, king bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was large with clean fixtures and well lit. I was pleasantly surprised when walking into the room as it looked just like the photos online. The room also included a table and chairs, mini fridge, and a large dresser.

We stayed for two nights, and the room was quite decent for the price. It’s a good place to catch up on rest after a long day on the road. The property appears recently renovated, the rooms are well-equipped, and the staff is friendly and helpful. The only area that could use improvement is housekeeping — I noticed a couple of spiders and some cobwebs in the room corners. With a bit more attention to cleanliness, this place could easily be excellent. Overall, a pleasant stay and good value for the money!

Got to our room and wanted to go directly to bed, but there were 3 guys who took their tv and video games outside there motel door and were load and playing just outside our door....annoying and and the front desk just let them. Won't stay there again, didn't get to sleep until after midnight.

I suppose it's the thought that counts. Overall tho we did sleep well and thankfully I bought Jimmy Dean sandwiches for breakfast. For the price I would stay here again

Budget Host Inn is unassuming on the outside but is newly renovated on the inside. We were happily surprised with the room we were given. Most everything in the room was new and very clean. The bathroom looked dated but very clean, which actually adds to the appeal for me at least. We heard that more renovations are coming, however. Being a low-budget motel, it was more than acceptable for the price. They offered a minimalist breakfast, coffee and bagels in the check-in office. Be aware that there is no coffee maker in the room, but there is a microwave, refrigerator, chest bureau/drawers, side tables with a lot of electrical outlets and USB charging ports, and a work/dining table and pair of chairs in the room. To top it off, the staff were amazing and very nice. I would come back to this motel for sure.
