Room was very dusty from recent interior work that was done. Front desk assured me that it was cleaned. Had to have the hot tub/jacuzzi knows on the replaced.
Absolutly gross. For 250 a night you would think the floors would be clean. Kleenex behind the pillows, heat unit was ungodly dirty, waterpark has mold all over by windows. Absolutely ZERO extras. Also no swimming the next morning as the pool is only open 2 to 10. Dont waste the money
The room we stayed in, had quite a hike to get to. There was a walkway, an elevator, a skywalk, and a set of stairs. This was inconvenient with two large bags and two little kids. The room appeared dusty and had a cigarette and mildew smell. The waterpark was inconvenient but OK there is no place to change but a dirty bathroom. Very large hot tub, water appeared clean, but you could tell the park was pretty old.

The room was extremely cold upon check in and took 8 hours to get up to a comfortable temperature. Breakfast was not available, likely due to seasonal off time.
Waterpark was enjoyable an fun for the kids, yes! I can’t complain as it was under 100$ for me and 3 kids and waterpark. Yet, the room was very worn down. Shower rod broken, hair in the tub, left over items from previous stayer. We found a dead mouse electrocuted and stuck in the socket thst was broken.
Overall… for the kids to have some fun, I’d do it again for the price. But could absolutely use some TLC.

room was freezing they gave us a new room but everything in the hotel was ice cold refrigerator didn't work water park was freezing the Jets don't work in the hot tub try to call to check out because no staff on property staff at other Hotel was rude on phone hung up on us wouldn't let us make reservations before 1:00 overall if the hotel was warm and refrigerator worked it wouldn't be so bad
Crown Choice did not have an open pool so we stayed at the Hamilton. Hamilton served all our needs! The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful and efficient! He helped get our service switched over to Hamilton at the same rate and room type! Older hotel but it is still decent! We enjoyed many of the amenities! Pool, hot tub, workout room, breakfast! Kids all felt safe and comfortable too!

We've come back to this hotel multiple times , we love it ! The indoor water park , pool and hot tub are great! Even a game room and pool table. We've been during rhe summer and winter, and its always great. The only thing I wish they still had is a continental breakfast. They used to have it, and they have a very spacious dinning area. All in all, our family highly recommends!

The room was not clean, I wiped some type of food off the bathroom outlet, had to clean the toliet seat off. The water park was dirty, looked like there was blood on the drains, and the hot tub didn't work.

Clean room. Hallway was super cold tho. We loved the pool and big hot tub. The water park was super cold. Almost too cold!! We only let our littles play for a few minutes in the water park area...
Everything was great besides the waterpark and pool area was cold , it was cold and snowy outside I understand but they need to turn the water up some and the heat on . That is the main reason I stayed at this place . My grandkids were very cold in the water .
Got a weekend for my son his wife and kids..they got there . Lobby closed.. thankfully someone told them they had to go to another hotel to register..had to go outside in swim suits as no changing room at water park.. very disappointed...
Staff was very nice,the cleanliness of the hotel and room not the best....rugs in hallway needed to be vacuumed and our room had old food on the floors ...the pool and waterpark hours are terrible

The room was not cleaned and was in poor condition. We left and couldn’t stay there.
I contacted corporate with my concerns and was offered a certificate for a future stay. unfortunately we live in Louisiana and this was a one time experience to see some snow. the certificate was useless but when i tried to explain that i needed another form of reimbursement i was told no. the reason was and i quote " room service(meaning collecting trash and towels )was not a separate paid service" Last I checked collecting wet towels from rooms and replacing them was included in ANY hotel stay. We had essentially collected 4 days worth of towels for 5 people and accumulated as much trash, not including the trash that was there already.(we had a kitchenette so take into consideration food waste) we had the opportunity to speak with the front desk one time, otherwise it was closed and we had to use the hotel down the road for services.There were wires hanging from the ceiling where a smoke alarm was meant to be, a cigarette butt under our fitted sheet, we found that on night 3 when the sheet popped off the mattress. broken dresser, broken hairdryer. we were moved to a different room on our last night and same story, smoke alarm missing, tv in the back room didn't work. A pair of socks were in the bed, we returned those to housekeeping. The lights in the back didn't work. There was building supplies left out on the second floor dining as well. sauna didn't work. pool was great. Maintenance Man 100%customer service was not great. we deserved a little compensation for all that.
Our stay was awesome other than the fact that our personal jacuzzi was dirty, being s previous house keeper I know to check the jacuzzi by running It before EVER getting into it, and it was FILTHY. also it think it’s great that myself and my boyfriend got passes to the water park, however the water park should say it’s SPECIFICALLY for children, and after I noticed that, it was fine, because I noticed they had a huge well heated pool and awesome big jacuzzi PLUS a sauna! For the adults! , however the sauna Did not work!! And that really sucked!! The bed was a king however it most luxury hotel rooms and for the price the mattress is much better than the one that was provided! But the room was very clean, that staff was great, although a little slow cause they were short staffed. I’m would probably end up booking at a different hotel where I know the beds are better and there is a water park for both adults and kids. overall out of 10 I would rate my stay a solid 6, and that’s only because without my voucher the rate for the deluxe room with the hands for the park just wasn’t worth it, considering how dirty the jacuzzi was and the fact that the bed could have been way comfier(considering other stays in cheaper hotels in mackinaw) and the fact that the water park wasn’t for adults at all and the sauna being broken.
