We checked in late and checked out early- that could explain a few pieces of paper lying in the hallway. T room itself was quite adequate. The staff man on duty was very helpful and brought us what we requested promptly.

This property should not be listed on Expedia. The rooms are not updated? They have mold on the bathroom ceiling, base decks had water damage, patches on the walls were not painted and all the maintenance was poorly done. They also had tenants on the property. They were sitting outside in chairs so you can clearly see inside several rooms that they reside there? visibly seeing pots and pans.The property tenants were loud going up and down the stairs at 1am in the morning. I would not recommend anyone staying here. Poor upkeep to this old ran down hotel.

The place is very convenient. Close to everything want to go. Quiet, but the room needs a lot of TLC. The hsk. Skipped some of the items in the room, like no tissue paper, used exrta toilet paper, no wash cloths, only two bath towels, for 3 nites stayed. The front desk clerk is very nice.

It is in a good location as far as being close to the lake. The rooms are a bit out dated and do not match the picture. House cleaning also did not empty the fridge from the previous guest.

When we arrived to our stay, the front desk employee seemed very lethargic and unwelcoming. We were given a key to our room, and to our disappointment the room looked nothing like the photos advertised when we booked through Expedia. There was also mold in the crowning of the wall right next to the door. We returned to the front desk and notified the employee that we were not comfortable staying in that room, he moved us to another room upstairs that was slightly better than our first. Overall, I would not stay here again and I was very disappointed with my experience not only at the hotel but also with Expedia. I also have photos I can submit to show proof of everything I stated above.
