The hotel seemed dated and didn't have an elevator - which was inconvenient for people carrying large suitcases. The breakfast was good and the staff kept it well stocked. The rooms were clean.

The hotel was beautiful and clean. The location was great. The staff was not great, though. They were on phones and distracted. Trying to check in took forever just to get the attendant’s attention. Breakfast was frustrating because the waffle maker quit working and the hot options were disgusting. Overall, it a beautiful spot, but don’t plan on much assistance or getting breakfast there.

Great location. However, there is a problem with the air conditioning filter and all of the rooms smell musty. Our friend had an asthma attack triggered. Staff basically said all rooms have the problem and hope it gets fixed by winter. Not even an apology. We left.

This is a somewhat dated property that is safe and serviceable, but the wear-and-tear is fairly apparent, and the cleanliness of the bathroom was not the best. The air conditioner was "all or none" and quite noisy. There is easy parking and we left too early for the breakfast, but it seemed as though it would be reasonable as these go. This is not a bad place at all, just needs some updating. There was new bathroom flooring and new bathroom fixtures, so this was at least a plus. Just fine, nothing fancy.

I like the location and the lake view. However, the bathroom cabinet door came out and hit my chin and foot. Also the shower door would not stay closed. Lastly, breakfast was supposed to be until 9:00 but the eggs were gone.
