I give everything a 5 star because I loved the place but the location wasn't so great because the air smelt like someone had a meth lab near by and you can smell it for at least 2 miles.
Very clean if a bit spartan. Would have liked a chair and a lamp, but the bed was comfortable with crisp, clean sheets. Nice bathroom and shower with plenty of nice towels. Staff very friendly. Great value!
Stayed here on an overnight trip for a field trial with my dog. Definitely an old motel, but totally worth it if you don't have a camper to camp out. Staff was very friendly about everything. Loved that each room had its own designated parking spot. Spots of the carpet was missing, and there was one outlet that didn't work, but that's not going to change my mind on staying there again of I need to. For a quick stay, it's definitely one to check out.
First time to michigan to meet extended family. This motel is a gem. Clean rooms, big clean bathroom and shower. Very friendly staff. After a two quiet night stay realized how conveniently located to food, stores gas stations and interstate. Check in and out was very easy and efficient. Great price also! I will stay again. Thank you.
Clean rooms and bedding. You can tell that management unconcerned with customer satisfaction. I would definitely recommend it to anyone in need of a place to stay.
Nice local motel. Furnishings are a bit worn, but room was very clean. Bed was comfortable, great shower, really nice towels. Also, if you want great coffee drive in to Ionia to Sozo.
We have just about completed a 5 day stay here at the Midway Motel Ionia, Mi. Simple, clean, comfortable rooms at a nice price. The staff is friendly and helpful. We'll be back at the next Grand Child event.
Clean and very calm and quiet place, we were out in the cold and they helped get us into a warm room, there was no microwave but the room had a mini fridge cable TV and wifi! The staff was friendly and helpful!
We were in town for a short visit with family. Our room was quaint with a very clean bathroom and the staff were not only helpful but also friendly! We are grateful to have a place so stay that is convenient and priced right!
I came here after having some issues with another place looking on what available rooms they had all I can say is I would recommend this place over the other one in a heartbeat. When I first came in all I was greeted with is kindness and generosity from the owner of the place. The room was nice and clean just overall a great place to stay at.
Situated off Route 66 and right by I-96, this unassuming budget lodging is 4.8 miles from family entertainment at the I-96 Speedway and 7.2 miles from Ionia State Recreation Area.
