Even tho the hotel is not new, it was clean, comfortable and convenient for us. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was very clean. Being able to have front and back windows open was a plus also. The hotel is under new ownership and they are doing upgrades to the property. Would stay there again if we are in the area.

The Vindel Motel was just right for our overnight in Mackinac City! Nothing too fancy, but clean and convenient! They were very responsive with a question I had. Loved the no-check-in thing - they just sent the door code right to my phone. Great little place!

Overall a very good choice for a cheaper motel as a place to sleep and be a waypoint on your journey. The internet was a bit frustrating for streaming a movie but everything else was great. Quiet, clean, with a microwave and larger size fridge. Close to all the things in the Mackinaw area, the fort, Mackinac island and the ferry dock, the dark sky park and the downtown area.

Our third stay at the Vindel. Not quite as charming as our last visit two years ago. Bed was squeaky, bathroom baseboards needed to be cleaned and the pool was closed due to storm damage over the winter. Would have been nice to know this when making the reservation. If you are looking for a simple, classic motel this is for you. For the price we will probably stay somewhere else next time.
