8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Lowell that stayed in May 2013This place is close to everything and is reasonably priced. Rooms are basic but you have plenty of room for a family of four. Stayed in a two queen bed on courtyard. Considering other places I have stayed in the area, I'd have no problem booking again. In fact, I already booked my next stay in september.These comments are from a verified stay

10 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Wilmington that stayed in October 2012Arrived late and left early. The desk clerk was most helpful with dinner suggestions and getting coffee early in the morning! We had a 6am flight from Pellston. A MOST pleasant surprise was the jacuzzi tub IN THE ROOM!! Some of the best shampoo & conditioner ever was also a plus. Too bad we couldn't have more time to enjoy the view. Next time we'll allow more time for this excellent hotel!These comments are from a verified stay

8 out of 10Best Western Plus Dockside Waterfront HotelBest Western Plus Dockside WaterfrontHotel Customer from Albemarle that stayed in September 2012The directions to the room were wrong to some extent. It didn't take us long though to figure out where we needed to go. The room appeared clean but it did not smell fresh as I expected a room of your rating should be. The breakfast was excellent! Some people had stated that it wasn't good. But, for a breakfast that is included with the price of the room, it was great plus there was sufficient variety and plenty of it. The elevator needs some attention as it is somewhat clunky.These comments are from a verified stay
