Staff was amazing. Room clean and bed comfortable. Great beach access. It is on the main drive through town so we kept our unit fan on to cover up any traffic noise. Will definitely stay again.

Innkeeper was great. Made a wonderful hot breakfast. Motel is reasonably priced and right on the beach. Room was clean and tastefully decorated. It’s on a very busy road making a walk across the street impossible.

Loved how they keep everything so clean in the rooms and updated. The breakfast was very nice too! And the beach being groomed and raked every morning is beyond expectations, was good. The shower and water pressure was excellent and the toilet area all worked and was clean. Very good deal for the price. Only thing I noticed negative was spiderwebs on the railing outside.

The rooms were clean, but very small. Some broken wall hooks, and squeaky bathroom pocket door. All very minor maintenance items that can be easily fixed. Great location, easy room access from vehicle.

Our room was small with on one upright chair to sit on, but it was adequate for two adults. The price was economical and the room contained all of the necessary amenities. There is a very nice beach on the bay. The breakfast was very good. The only negative was on our second morning the girl on duty did not do a very efficient job of keeping up with replenishing the food when items ran out. Overall, we would not hesitate to stay again.

Brio beach is simply a gemstone! The beach was raked every morning! The views from the beach, tables, and gazebo are stunning! The rooms were wonderful with no carpet and comfortable beds. The shock was how good the breakfast was with eggs, sausages and pancakes or French toast along with the usual continental. Also for all coming spend your time away from the hotel on front street, exploring sleeping bear dunes, m 22, and the beauty of old mission peninsula!
