For the price, this is a great spot. If you're seeking 5 stars, this isn't it; if you're just looking for a good place to stay without outrageous rates, this is perfect. Close to water/beach (3 minutes or so) and roughly 10 minutes from downtown. Breakfast across the street in the main hotel is very nice and the area is kept clean.

Just a great two days! Our son lives in East Tawas. Our daughter & granddaughter came up too, unexpectedly & we all had so much fun at the beach & eating at the taco place. So glad I could stay close by🌹🌺

This is honestly my favorite place to stay. The rooms are always quiet you cannot hear anyone if they are next to you. That includes you aren't even able to hear someone else's bathroom water running.

Good clean room for the price.

Work was being done in room next door with a compressor until about 10pm. Wasn't real loud, but could definitely hear it. Worker parked his truck sideways across parking spaces which required me to park a couple doors down from my room. Other than that, it was a perfect experience.

Staff were great, facilities in Bay Inn were great, the room was well maintained.

Near Highway 23, so a little noisy at night.

Honestly the people here are great. I usually like to stay in the hotel part but the crows nest is a lot quieter as far as hearing doors or people.
