Check-in is always super quick, we’ve stayed here a few times and will definitely be back. The rooms are nice and cozy and very clean ! I love that there’s hot water for showers. We’ve used the pool in the past and it’s very clean as well.

Check-in was quick, staff was helpful. I would have liked to have known ahead of time that 3% was added for credit card payment; would have brought a check or cash. (If there was something in the listing about this I missed it.) The room (#7)--everything that could be cleaned was spotless, however the carpeting in the bed area was stained and gross. I'm sure it was vacuumed but but it looked dirty. The "closet" in the bed area was unfinished with pipes going through with unpainted dry wall. But you could hang your clothes, though only 3 hangers. And unfortunately the mattress could use replacing (very squishy) though my husband and I did sleep pretty well. It was quiet. The kitchen was very well-stocked with dishes and cooking implements. The bathroom was very clean but the bathroom door would not close all the way (poorly hung), the hinges squeaked, and the toilet seat made a horrible screeching sound when opened or closed. The grounds were well-kept, including the pool. It was an easy walk into town.

My husband and I found the Blue Spruce Motel to be perfect for our long weekend stay in Port Austin. Easy walking distance to everything in town, and to the beach. Our room was clean, there was not a single thing to complain about. Pool was clean…we did not jump in but we did sit a while with our feet in, relaxing.

A great spot for an overnight visit to Port Austin. I was more than impressed by how clean everything was. The internet, however, did not work for us. I wasted lots of time trying to get on and work with it and ended up getting much better service with my phone's hotspot.

The room was clean. Staff were friendly. The only complaint would be the party going on in the parking lot. Although it was not loud, it was unnerving having to go through the party to get to our room. I would recommend staying here.
