Detailed Reviews
I came into town due to adverse weather in the area and stayed four nights.
The entire staff ensured that I enjoyed a wonderful visit over the holidays. I was concerned about being stranded alone in the event of power and phone/internet outages, and was so glad of the comfort and cleanliness. The room was immaculate and convenient service from housekeeping.
There was the option of towel/linen exchange outside your door along with full housekeeping service any days requested.
The St Ignace Budget Host definitely has the BEST breakfast available in town, with FOUR hot options available, fresh waffles, and a variety of cereals, oatmeal, bagels, yogurt, juices and so on.
There's a large pool area with hot tub, an extensive game room and exercise facility, too.
I received a discounted veterans rate, which was well appreciated! Thank you for a wonderful mini vacation in town and special kudos to Justen & Bryce ... everything was well maintained and despite the heavy snow, they kept the drives pristine. Manager Kari was so helpful as well as the extended family atmosphere.
Highly recommended as an outstanding place to stay, year around. Everything in town is within walking distance, too!

I don’t ever write reviews, but I simply had to after staying here. First, the lady checking me in was amazing, she showed me different options for suites that would be best for my family. She was incredibly sweet and considerate. The rooms here are unlike any hotel I’ve stayed at. I’ve been to the “executive suites” before that other hotels have offered and even those aren’t as good as this place. It’s just so funny that we happened upon this place and seeing the modest “Budget” name, it totally blew my expectations away. We decided on a 2 bedroom suite (pretty much a condo), the “room” had two queen beds plus a pull out sofa, the pillows and beds are extremely comfortable (I have a bad back, so this is important!) a large double vanity and a separate bathroom with a very large tub/shower. I’m without words, but this is simply the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Everything from top to bottom gets 5 stars. This place deserves to be fully booked every night, or maybe you and I have just stumbled upon the best kept secret of the Mackinac Bridge area.

Small tour company using this hotel for the first time. My guests key cards would demagnetize, and when asking the front desk to reissue keys the evening staff would tell me there was nothing wrong with the keys...yet, our keys would not open the doors. The rooms were clean and well supplied, and the towels were replaced when we asked, which is normal during COVID. The hotel was quiet and there were many patrons there, which was great. The Grab and Go Breakfast was not memorable, and some attention to providing a better muffin would be appreciated by guests...maybe something baked locally.

Went to Budget Host In St. Ignace like we have for the last 4 years for our Tractor Crossing except for last year it was cancelled. The Hot tub was closed, the swimming pool was chemically over dosed and had a strong smell and hard to get out of our suits even though we soaked them. The key card to get into the building wouldn't work, and we got a different room with no balcony even though we reserved the room a year in advance. The bed was terrible and you couldn't sleep on it. Talked to the manager (Linda) to see what could be done or any discounts given since so many things didn't work and were broke and we couldn't get our room moved to the one we had reserved a year in advance and she would do nothing or accommodate us or apologize for all the problems we had encountered while we were there.
She was very smart and rude talking to me and lacked people skills. They have a new owner that is foreign and I even talked to him but he did not offer any help or accommodations either. This place has went down hill with new ownership and would not recommend anybody staying there.

Admittedly stayed here by default. Had a reservation at a seemingly higher-end property that we learned wasn’t pet friendly. They were kind enough to direct us here and we feel like we hit the jackpot — clean, quiet, friendly and a water view for 25% less than the other place. Room is not large but the balcony is a nice touch. To-go breakfast won’t wow but the lobby coffee is surprisingly good. Check out the throwback video game room — those growing up in the 80’s will love it. This place is a gem that shows pride of ownership.

This hotel was exactly what it says it is…conveniently located, clean, and for us it was budget friendly, as we could all stay in one room but still have some space. We got a 3 room suite for our family of 4. The room was immaculately clean. Beds were comfortable. It was quiet, A/C worked great, and the living room area was spacious. My older son slept on the couch, not pulled out, and was comfortable. I did not use the exercise room but did pop in for water several times and it was nice and cool…some hotels keep their exercise rooms far too warm but not here. Breakfast was adequate…it was what I expected. We were all able to find something. They had hard boiled eggs in the fridge along with mini yogurts, and then your standard continental breakfast items (cereal, bagels, make your own waffles, and fruit one of the two mornings we stayed). Staff we interacted with (front desk) was adequate as well…did their jobs, no more, and no less. Checked us in and offered no additional info other than telling us where our room was at, but anytime we had a question, they answered it (i.e. are ferry tickets available there, what time does breakfast end). This was fine with us. We wanted clean (it was SO clean), convenient, quiet, and breakfast included. This place delivered and we would stay here again.

The staff was helpful when booking room and checking in. We gad a 1st floor room (2 queens). Easy in and out. We could see the water from our patio.
Room super clean and comfortable. Good beds and pillows. Felt Covid comfortable.
Pool was open. Nice swim after a day on the road. Nice walk for ice cream after outstanding BC Pizza drlivery in the room.
Coffee available in the lobby. Breakfast bag with muffin, fruit and juice you can order for morning pickup. Nice touch.

I was a bit worried when I booked our room, but there weren't many rooms left in St Ignace. Once we got there and got to our room I realized I was worried for no reason! This is a nice place, it's been updated, it's clean and they have a good hot breakfast included. The beds were comfortable, but I wash they had feather instead of foam pillows.
The staff is average, not overly friendly, but not rude either. But we had very little interaction with them. The room had a king bed and was spacious for what it is. It was a little odd that the room had access from both the parking lot and an interior hallway. My guess is this was an old motel that had an addition added and was modernized, but regardless it's still nice. The location is good, right on the main road and across from the water and very close to the docks to get the ferry over to Mackinaw Island. In the back of the property, there is an area where you can park if you are towing a trailer with your motorcycles, boat, etc.
Give this place a chance and I'm sure you'll have a good stay.

I have stayed here several times over the years, it is the only place I will stay when I visit the area. I’m always so impressed how CLEAN the rooms are . Other motels could take a lesson from there cleaning staff !! The rooms also have a refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker in them

This would be the third time we have stayed. First time since covid. This hotel is the most budget friendly 2 star hotel in town. Most likely because it's not lake side, but across the street. This place is very clean and pet friendly. Staff is very friendly. Pool is clean, and very fun for the kids. The breakfast was very good during other stays, but not available this time around due to covid. Which was a bummer, cause you can get muffins and juice instead. Much of a downgrade compared to breakfast buffet in the past. We get a larger room due to our family size, which sleeps 6 comfortably, but does not have a balcony. The view isnt quite as good as lakeside anyway.
Overall, this place is the best bang for your buck,and walking distance to everything St. Ignace has to offer other than the casino. We will be back.

Not sure I think they have a website
We stayed last week and the pool was open. Breakfast was a preordered brown bag with a muffin, fruit and juice.
But with covid precautions constantly changing, maybe give them a call.
We had a great stay and felt very safe!
Yes we do accept pets there is a $10.00 plus tax fee.
As of our stay last November, yes. I'd call and double check. Nice place to stay.
When a guest with a pet checks out, each room is totally stripped down, including shower curtains and curtains and cleaned thoroughly. That being said, call us directly when you're ready to make your reservation and tell the Reservation Desk about the allergy issue and we can make sure that a pet does not stay in your specific room for weeks in advance. We are always willing to work with guests in making the best stay possible. Jack
