We didn’t like that it says with breakfast when booking at expedia but there is really no breakfast at this hotel. We were given a coupon for buy one get one breakfast at a nearby restaurant with limited options and overpriced food.

Definitely recommend and will be returning ##### Russell Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Dakota May 18, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities You get what you pay for. When we checked in, there were no night shift workers and had to check in for our room down the road at another hotel. This is way better than the Crown Plaza though! Everything was clean. Just felt sketchy at night with no workers in the building. ##### Dakota Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort pool and water park area was fun but not so much clean, room was nice and clean ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Andrew Jun 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Bayside is located within walking distance of restaurants, shops, and the ferry to take you to the island. The price for booking the hotel was cheap, and the hotel had discounts for many activities, restaurants, and for the ferry. ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [St. Clair Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Huron-Hotels-The-St-Clair-Inn.h36685.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Brighton by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Howell-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-And-Suites-Brighton.h32102546.Hotel-Information) > > [Double JJ Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Era-Hotels-Double-JJ-Resort.h3062219.Hotel-Information) > > [Bay Mills Resort And Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Brimley-Hotels-Bay-Mills-Resort-And-Casino.h11980098.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairfield Inn and Suites by Marriott Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Frankenmuth-Hotels-Fairfield-Inn-And-Suites-By-Marriott-Frankenmuth.h281052.Hotel-Information) > > [Splash Universe Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Monroe-Hotels-Splash-Universe-Resort.h21760670.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Frankenmuth by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hotel-Suites-Frankenmuth.h6621673.Hotel-Information) > > [Treetops Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Grayling-Hotels-Treetops-Resort.h914489.Hotel-Information) > > [Super 8 by Wyndham Marysville/Port Huron Area](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Huron-Hotels-Super-8-By-Wyndham-MarysvillePort-Huron-Area.h856217.Hotel-Information) > > [The Highlands at Harbor Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Petoskey-Hotels-Boyne-Highlands-Resort.h13205714.Hotel-Information) > > [SpringHill Suites by Marriott Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-SpringHill-Suites-By-Marriott-Frankenmuth.h882233.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Inn & Suites Clarkston Pine Knob Area](https://www.expedia.ca/Comfort-Inn-Suites.h68623534.Hotel-Information) > > [Ann Arbor Marriott Ypsilanti at Eagle Crest](https://www.expedia.ca/Ann-Arbor-Hotels-Ann-Arbor-Marriott-Ypsilanti-At-Eagle-Crest.h28149.Hotel-Information) > > [Marv Herzog Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Marv-Herzog-Hotel.h13006478.Hotel-Information) > > [Black River Retreat (Dog Friendly!)](https://www.expedia.ca/Ironwood-Hotels-Black-River-Retreat.h33500821.Hotel-Information) > > [SpringHill Suites by Marriott East Lansing University Area](https://www.expedia.ca/Lansing-Hotels-SpringHill-Suites-By-Marriott-East-Lansing-University-Area.h615.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lakeview Hotel, Shanty Creek Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Traverse-City-Hotels-The-Lakeview-Hotel.h1104351.Hotel-Information) > > [Drury Inn & Suites Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Drury-Inn-Suites-Frankenmuth.h58071.Hotel-Information) > > [Clear Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Grayling-Hotels-Clear-Lake-Resort.h10356891.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Midland by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Midland.h2462677.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Midland](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Midland.h116959.Hotel-Information) > > [Torch Lake Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.ca/Traverse-City-Hotels-Torch-Lake-Bed-Breakfast.h11601400.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Ann Arbor West by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Ann-Arbor-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Ann-Arbor-West.h9215322.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Bay City - Riverfront](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-Bay-City-Riverfront.h1077165.Hotel-Information) > > [Frankenmuth Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Frankenmuth-Motel.h1148366.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Winds Casino Resort – New Buffalo](https://www.expedia.ca/Benton-Harbor-Hotels-Four-Winds-Casino-Resort-New-Buffalo.h13278629.Hotel-Information) > > [Wingate by Wyndham Brighton](https://www.expedia.ca/Howell-Hotels-Wingate-By-Wyndham-Brighton.h126779.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Port Huron](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Huron-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Port-Huron.h42075.Hotel-Information) > > [Boyne Mountain Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Petoskey-Hotels-Boyne-Mountain-Resort.h74159.Hotel-Information)
