A Facebook user named Jennifer shares an unbelievable experience she had over spring break at the Crown Choice Inn & Suites in Mackinaw City, Michigan. According to Jennifer’s version of events:
- She was going on a spring break adventure with a friend and their five kids, and spent a night at the Crown Choice Inn & Suites, which she says “wasn’t great,” but they were “determined to make the best of it”
- Around 11PM her and her kids went to bed; her son heard water running and discovered that the bathroom was flooding
- At this point Jennifer ran to the front desk, and the man on duty (who claims to be part of the family that owns the hotel) asked if she shut off the valve; she stated that she hadn’t, and was coming for help, as she didn’t know to do so
- The man then states that it’s Jennifer’s responsibility because she refused to turn off the water, and he said he was calling the police to charge her with malicious destruction of property
- At this point she started recording the interaction, and he calls her an “idiot,” a “dumbass,” and then says “start thinking with your mind, okay, stop being a Democrat, a dumb Democrat, go to your room, pack your stuff, and leave”
- The group had to pack up their bags and leave, and they finally found another hotel with availability at around 2:30AM
- Jennifer has waited several weeks before sharing this publicly, to be sure she wasn’t actually being charged with anything
Here’s a video of the portion of the interaction that was captured on tape:
Jennifer even posts the police report:

As you’d expect, this hotel has taken a beating on TripAdvisor, though reviews have now been suspended due to people who haven’t actually stayed at the property.
