Very disappointed in the continental breakfast and restaurant hours. The only source of protein at breakfast were dry hard boiled eggs. For the money they could at least put of scrambled eggs and sausage out of some form. The restaurant is not open for breakfast or lunch. I would have gladly paid for a breakfast of my choice without leaving the hotel, but not an option. Not open Monday or Tuesday for dinner...... I think it would have been better for us to drive in and park and pay for parking when we wanted to access the lake or eat downtown.

I didn't eat at the brunch but I was babysitting and we went to see Santa and grabbed some complimentary hot chocolate. The Santa looked great and the hot chocolate was delicious! The hotel was decorated beautiful for the holiday and the staff was friendly, as always. I've enjoyed lunch and dinner at their restaurant, Plank's Tavern, and I've always enjoyed their outdoor tiki bar with a water view! They have nice, updated rooms, a cafe that opens early for espresso drinks, and their hot tub is awesome because it goes outside! It's fun to relax in the hot tub during a Michigan snowfall. My only complaints are that the elevator is incredibly slow and they only accept dogs in the condos, which are much more expensive to stay in for a night compared to the hotel rooms.

I got the treasure chest herbal tea and my husband ordered the raspberry white chocolate kiss coffee. The raspberry white chocolate kiss coffee is a warm loving kiss on this cold icy pure Michigan morning. The treasure chest tea has a nice bitter sweet and herby taste to it, not bad. They use uncommon coffee roasters coffee grounds. They had fresh baked cookies on sheets on the counters this morning, they look so good, but not an ideal breakfast. Maybe later. You do get a free black coffee here for guests staying at the Inn. Good to know. They offer a lot of specialized coffees and they sound so yummy.

LIPSTICK ON A PIG…read more So, for those that have stayed at Silver Beach Hotel in the past, this review shouldn't come as a shock. However, its been several years that we had stayed there, through multiple renovations and we figured, "hey, what the heck, lets give it a try again, because it couldn't be worse then what it was in the past". Well - sure enough we were wrong. We booked the "Presidential Suite" since we were celebrating a milestone anniversary, and since it was still considered "off season", the prices weren't too terribly bad. When we got in the room, we saw hair in the corners of the shower, the shower glass door wasn't wiped down from the last time it was used, there was hair on the bathroom floor behind the toilet and in the sink. Running our hand over a side table in the room, you could see the streak of us displaying multiple layers of dust that was on the table. The floors weren't swept or mopped (at least this room had updated laminate flooring instead of that terrible carpet), and overall the room was just REALLY dirty. The pool is still "under renovation" (which is probably for the best with - don't advise anyone to go in that water if that would be of the same condition as the rest of the hotel), and their hotel bar is still closed. When we alerted the front desk about this condition of the room, they didn't seem to shocked due to their lackluster attempt at an apology. No offer for rectification or anything like that. I could go on and on, but im sure the point has come across. The kicker was, when we were ready to relax, we turned on the TV, to which we found there was no TV service or internet available. I called the front desk, and the guy said "we'll i'll need to come in the room to see what is going on". To which i turned down since we were trying to relax and go to sleep. End of the day, this hotel continues to be a major miss with location, service and amenities. It would be an absolute gold mine if someone would actually just take care of it, and put decent effort into it. If you just need a bed in a beach town for a night to relax, then yes, this is your place. HOWEVER if you actually want a "nice" hotel (which i'll use the term loosely since SBH doesn't even come close to "nice"), continue to look at Boulevard Inn or Harbor Shores Inn.

In addition, we wanted to use our credit card points so our selections for this weekend were slim but overall this checked all the boxes. What went well was that our room was quiet. There was 24/7 coffee/tea available in the lobby. the space to walk the dog was really nice as there were two locations on either side of the buildings. Additionally enjoyed the set up of the room and the amenities such as the body wash and the hand soap. There is some room for improvement at this location in regards to breakfast items. It was very continental and really didn't do the trick however we were able to enjoy bagels, toast, hard boiled egg and they did have a few varieties of fresh fruit. In particular, I wasn't really a fan of the pancake machine and the traditional waffle iron would be much more hardy and suitable. Overall, no major problems with our room however, the TV system is unique and sometimes it works, and sometimes it didn't often to look at Pluto versus even accessing the live channels as their entertainment system is kind of finicky. Additionally, the lotion dispenser in our room did not work, and I really wanted to try the lotion as I thought the fragrance for the body wash and hand Soap was very pleasant. Lastly, the workers at this hotel are just not very friendly. They're not rude. They're just not hospitable and that was evident from the front desk to the breakfast attendance to the maintenance person. They just were not very friendly or engaging at overall. If in this area again, I would stay at this hotel if the price point was right. overall it was a good value and close to St. Joseph while having the charm of Stevensville.

My zip code is so accurate it includes the 4 digit postal routing code at the end of the zip as well. I've been using Marriotts and affiliates for close to 15 years and he said - you're all set. So I walked away.... Except.... He popped out 15 seconds later and said I'm getting your keys now. This was a confusing checkin. He also said they don't use mobile keys at this location (per the front desk clerk). Then he asked me if I wanted 2nd or 3rd floor. Lol. It doesn't really matter to me and I mentioned I'm traveling with my children. He gives us the very last room on the 3rd floor (the furthest and most difficult room to get to in the entire hotel...pray there's not a fire... like seriously)- he's got jokes - and - told us to park on the side of the building, but neglected to mention the elevators are where the lobby is. So he added on additional walking. I didn't mention it, but I have severe osteo arthritis in my knee... so much so, that I could get a handicap placard if I so chose to. Just had surgery 5 months ago...thanks y'all! Lol. Great times. So thanks for giving us the direction to park out in BFE and then walk all the way to the elevators while carrying my toddler son. Lol. Jokes! You get 3 stars because I have had so many other great experiences at Marriotts across the world and also because the room was clean.

Paranoia overwhelmed me as I searched the room high and low for cameras, bugs, or wires or any sort. Afterwards, I realized that I had left the webcam on my computer on after a company meeting. Did my coworkers from Zeerocks see me masturbating? The hotel WIFI was excellent. I rate the Benton Harbor, Michigan Hampton Inn & Suites five stars.
