Sleeping Bear Hotel Dorchester

Sleeping Bear Hotel Dorchester

10/10 Excellent
"It was a great location in centre of town. The parking reservation system worked well. We appreciated that we had our two rooms located next to each other and on a lower floor so that we didnt have to carry too much luggage. The coffee machine was appreciated too. The room was spacious and clean. It was a great stay. Thank you."
