A trip to Bentleyville
I went with my daughter, her husband and two of my granddaughters. The views of the lake and ships are really cool, as is the boardwalk right outside. The hotel is very well kept, clean and friendly. The stay there was wonderful. The beds and linens were clean and comfortable. As was the room. Their breakfast buffet is top notch. So many choices and they all tasted good. We stayed just one night to see Bentleyville with the girls. That was spectacular and we all had a good time. We are hoping to make another trip this summer and we plan on staying at this hotel. A little hint: if you want a suite with a balcony, book early

Lift Bridge
Location and view was awesome. The hotel parking lot and layout was good. The Breakfast was great. Suggest closing the breakfast area for the cleaning at 10am. Bathroom tub drain was very slow. Some cob webs in ceiling/wall corner. The pictures and details of the room I selected on Hotels indicated a fire place. Our room did not have a fire place. Hotel staff indicated that they are not responsible for 3rd party booking sites content. ???
