Clean, fast check in, cute place for a great price. 💖
This was a very nice hotel close to the lake and restaurants. The lobby and terrace were very comfortable. I was in my own and felt safe staying here and getting food from the nearby restaurants. However, the bed was not comfortable. The microwave panel was loose and there was a musty smell from the carpet. I really liked the room layout but being on the 2nd floor on the parking lot side I could hear everyone talking as they were coming and going. In the morning at 8:45 there were no hot eggs and I didn’t ask if they were going to have anymore and I would have liked a bowl for my oatmeal. I did purchase some popcorn for my evening snack. I only wish there were alcohol beverages to purchase as well. The room and bathroom were very clean as was the little chair that I sat in. I would stay again. But I would ask for a higher room away from the noise of the parking lot.
The hotel was good overall. Clean and comfortable, decent breakfast. The room could use some improvement. There was not enough lighting - no overhead light, and no light on the desk, so the center of the room was not well lit. The A/C was very loud. The shower only had one of those fixed half doors, so it was hard to take a shower without making a mess on the floor.
Parking should be included. Paying almost $60 to park is ridiculous when you’re staying at the place you paid for. Your parking should be included at a motel/hotel. We won’t be back because of this.
