Room very clean and beds were comfortable my grandaughter loved the small private patio with chairs by the lake. She loved feeding the geese. Everyone was kind and helpful. Breakfast was nice too. The attendant was very kind and did a great job.

Was a nice hotel, friendly staff. 2 things that weren't so nice was the smell of the room or ac unit when it was on and you could hear pretty much everything in the hallway and other rooms. Unfortunately we had some loud neighbors. Other than that it was a nice place to stay

The highlight of this stay was the front desk staff - so courteous and friendly. The hotel is older and would benefit from some room updating but it was clean and just fine for a one night stay.

Family getaway
A real nice hotel for a family. However, they did not have an elevator for the second floor, which is real problematic with a lot of luggage kids and senior. The breakfast was packed a little small room for the volume of people. The waffle making was a big hit. Line was long they needed to have multiple wafflemakers to accommodate, how much the families enjoyed using the waffle maker. The attendant was very cheery and accommodating and also helped make some waffles for those that did not need to make their own waffle. This was very accommodating.
