The view of the park and the lake from the hotel is very beautiful. The hotel is conveniently located in the lakeshore and close to a lot of restaurants, park, and in the downtown area. The room was comfortable and clean. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. The downside was the parking in the hotel that was very full and luckily, we found one available spot, but we almost were not able to park near the hotel. The pool was okay. The water in the pool was cold. We thought it was heated. The breakfast was okay. It could have been better. The hotel is located downtown Burlington and it was the weekend, so the traffic to get in and out the hotel was jammed. But it was worthed for the views and for it to be waterfront. Overall, we had a good stay at this hotel.

Great price for a waterfront hotel! Clean facilities, great customer service. Pool’s a perfect size - perhaps extending pool hours would be amazing (maybe 0600-2200h), otherwise great experience!

We got 5 rooms for a wedding. 2 of the rooms had to be cancelled due to excessive amount of bugs, beatles and spiders. Was offered free parking upon checking in but the manager who is absolutely incompetent gave my mother a hard time upon checking out and removed the free parking and insisted on charging us all for it stating the person didn’t have the authority to do so. I called the front desk to speak with her and she cut the call short. went down only for another worker to remove the parking fee but 3 of the rooms but couldn’t remove the parking for my mother since she was already charged for it (she left early morning we checked out late). So the manager is simply the biggest problem this hotel has and of course cleanliness.
