This is an old property, smelled like mildew and weed. Also, while I do not need a wheelchair, carrying my bags up two flights of stairs, not good. Only good thing was breakfast.

The night staff was disrespectful. When I checked in the room I had reserved and paid ahead of time was not available. The staff said they could upgrade me but to a King Bed. I specifically needed two beds due to the people traveling with me. I also paid extra for a lakeside view which was not available. The staff then downgraded me to two double beds non lakeside. Throughout the whole process the staff member was rude. When I was asking questions about the room I requested she said with an attitude “You can take the room or leave!” I was wanting to know details about the room I was given so that I could determine if I had enough space and instead of being accommodating the staff member just had an attitude and did not care about the hotel they were representing.

Great location
Location to the Indiana Dunes NP and restaurants was a plus. Breakfast was good. Our only concern was there was no elevator in the hotel which made it necessary to carry our luggage up 2 short flights of stairs.

This hotel has seen better days. It is need of updating. The location is great if you are there to go to the beach, but the building itself is shabby and worn. It needs a good cleaning, too.

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.
