The motel was in a reasonable location relative to the town of Bad Axe. The room was clean, comfortable and remarkably well appointed for its size. It had a fridge and microwave and even a small hotplate for cooking, along with various utensils. My only real concern about the accommodation has to do with security. The door lock to the room did not seem especially substantial, and there was no security lock. I'd suggest that security locks be installed on all the doors.

Unassuming property with quaint rooms and many amenities, including microwave, kitchen-style sink in room, fridge, DishTV, and even a hot plate and toaster! A pleasant surprise for the accommodation! Manager was very friendly and attentive, even walking guests to their rooms to ensure everything is proper when checking-in. Motel location is just outside of town, with access to various restaurants, grocery stores, and entertainment.

The location is central if you are doing activities in various locations in the northern thumb. The rooms have recently been redone and are very nice and clean with fresh paint, new vanities, and new flooring. The beds were very comfortable. It would be nice if small bar of soap was provided and kleenex (small things, but can make a big difference when you don't pack your own :)). It was very reasonably priced and I was glad there was NOT a two night minimum stay required.
