Great little find in Northern Michigan

So last night we were doing some contract work in Northern
Michigan and it was getting late. Since we still had work to do in the morning up here, we decided to Priceline a hotel and get an early start in the morning. What we found was a gem in Northern Michigan. We ended up staying at the Days Inn Petoskey and the service and experience was so wonderful, we couldn't help but want to share it with everyone.

We checked in late and initially had a small hiccup with that, but we were tired and figured that we would deal with it in the morning at checkout. When we found our room, we were pleased to see a nice room with more ammenities than most places. The rooms were equipped with a mini refridgerator, a microwave and a nice television with a DVD player. The beds wer comfortable and we had a good night sleep.

In the morning as we were getting ready, we heard the phone ring, but were unalbe to get to it in time, so we just headed to the front desk to check out. That's where we met Valerie. She knew who we were right away and said that she had heard that we had an issue with our room. She had been the one calling us in the morning to let us know that it had already been taken care of and that she was sorry for any issues that it may have caused.

After that she invited us to go in for breakfast. The food was wonderful, waffles, french toast, sausage, biscuts and gravy along with anything else you could ever imagine to ask for! We were also informed that during your time staying at the hotel, you were able to check in as often as you liked to get any type of meal, breakfast, lunch or dinner from 6am-10pm and it was included! On top of that, they have a great contractor rate, if you call ahead, you get all that for ONLY $54.99 per night!

If you are ever staying up by Petoskey, I would highly recommend checking out Days Inn Petoskey. To get more information, visit their website at www.daysinnpetoskey.com, I am sure that you will not be disappointed!
