Had to unscrew and pull huge amount of hair from drain myself to unclog and get water to drain. Other than that very enjoyable stay ##### Cecil Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### John 16 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice hotel in an undiscovered resort town in eastern Michigan.

And the pillows were terrible, one super firm and one felt like 1/2 the feathers were gone. Area around was fine but staff was not welcoming at check-in. ##### Kathleen Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa 28 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent hotel! ##### Lisa Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lori 10 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean facility ##### Lori Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### BRADLEY 10 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Best place to go for a clean comfortable stay! ##### BRADLEY Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Monique 16 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Love staying here Wish there was a hot tub! ##### Monique Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Terry 8 Aug 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property was excellent in every way. However, the charge was $20 more than the Expedia rate. When questioned, the desk clerk indicated that the extra was due to Expedia, so the rate was the full rate of the hotel. Very disappointed. ##### Terry Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol 5 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved how it was right on the river walk and convenient to everything we needed to be near.

Clean properly and helpful staff. ##### Kandy Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Andre 28 Aug 2025 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The „Welcome“ was not a welcome at all. Very rude stuff. Indoor Pool was „out of order“. Only after we asked for the pool they put a sign out. TV program was very limited. All these topics with a 4 year old girl is hard to accept. Probably never again even we know that the people Up North are a bit more „rough“ but this was a No No. ##### Andre Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### scott 15 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Staff ##### scott Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John 26 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything was awesome i will stay here the next time ##### John Stayed 1 night in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kristie 30 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Our stay was short, but comfortable & clean! ##### Kristie Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Candice 8 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Convenient and Easy Stay Family friendly and convenient location. The Holiday Inn Alpena is close to restaurants and the local parks and is in the heart of Downtown Alpena. The room amenities are basic and meet the daily needs. Shampoo and soaps were all Dove products. One area I would like to see improvement is the beds. They are medium firm yet left me with a back ache. The top blankets are duvet and it’s shifts in your sleep. The hot breakfast was nice and met all our needs for our family of 6\. The food staff worked hard to ensure items stayed stocked. The employees we interacted with were very friendly and helpful. ##### Candice Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John 1 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort New and clean.
