The outside area was okay. The inside was clean, bed was comfortable. There was a microwave (didn’t use) and refrigerator. Large screen tv was nice. Water pressure was just okay. Had some issues checking in because I used my initials (which is what I go by) on my reservation and my ID has my name fully written out. The front desk was not going to let me stay because of that. I had to call Hotels.com and finally they changed my reservation to state my full name. Was not off to a good start. Did have some nice restaurants near by and the lake was across the main road.

The room was really spotless. Really comfortable bed and the pillows are nice as well. Comes with microwave and fridge as well. However the shower head pressure was significantly weak. And the plugs for both nightstands didn't work. It would have been nice if there were a complimentary breakfast as well.But overall the room was really good.

You get what you pay for! Great price and location plus very nice staff and newly remodeled. But they don’t apparently have everything ready; 1. No ice machine even though they have ice buckets in the room 2. A closet to hang clothes, but no bar or shelf to allow you to do that. 3. Hit water just warm and weak stream. 4. Zero rooms ready to use at the 3:00 pm check-in time. I can’t explain that. 5. No bkfst at all. Yes, that was in their amenities list, but for that price you should get something.
