For a quick, off-and-on-the-road-again-overnight, this property was so much better than the first look of the parking lot suggested. The parking lot is barren, with no landscaping, and looks uninviting. However, inside the hotel is immaculate, both in condition and cleanliness. The hot water in the shower was ample, the bed comfortable, & the pillows excellent. The air conditioner was excellent, and much quieter than most of the under-the-window-wall-mounted units we've encountered. Two negatives: it did not have an elevator and it needed towel racks or hooks in the bathroom.

Very friendly staff and clean room. Although there’s a sign at the property, we ended up driving right by; the building entrance is not obvious. Room AC is loud. Something on offer for breakfast would be a nice addition, but we knew going in that they didn’t provide anything. Coffee is in the lobby, not the rooms. But certainly an adequate spot to stay.

Was not told about Wi-Fi, so I don't know whether they have it or not; website says they do. They do NOT have breakfast, although the cards in their rack say that they do, and even give the times. Receptionist says they have not offered it since COVID, and may need to update their cards (yeah). My wife booked this place with the understanding from Expedia that they do offer breakfast, but when I search in Expedia, I don't find Lincoln Host Motor Inn listed at all. To be fair to Lincoln Host, their direct website does not mention breakfast, just coffee and tea, and the receptionist did make good recommendations on nice places nearby to get breakfast. The place was convenient, clean, and comfortable. I slept well.

Stains on the sheets and hair on the sink from the previous guests. What disappointed the most was the unwelcoming and just no care staff at the time of check in. Definitely will be staying somewhere else next time.

This is a pet-free hotel. I have had experiences at other hotels where the pet owner leaves the dog in the room, and the dog barks for an extended period of time. I would stay here again

Breakfast was not included, they just don’t have the facilities to handle it, but planning accordingly, ahead of time, the price was right!!! Better blackout curtains are needed if you stay on the main drag side (M-2) and are in the back side, the sign and traffic’s lights come through, so often your eyelid’s can’t keep up. We had the window open, since the weather was perfect for sleeping, but the traffic from the stop light right outside our window was non-stop all night.

I had t o go with my 84 year old sister in law for a medical appointment. The morning of our 173 mile one way trip started with warnings of freezing rain and snow. Using our common sense and consideriing I was 73 we cancelled that appointment. I called the hotel to cancell at 9 am and was told. I would have to pay the 89.00 dollars. I offered to take a credit for the next appointment and was denied. I do not understand them not working with me. What eere ee to do? We live in the UP of Michigan and need to often travel long distance for any speciality. I will not use this hotel again. Is there no room in our society for having some understanding?
