Location was perfect! Walkable distance to most things. Very spacious and plenty of room to sleep a big family. No locks on toilet or bathroom, but we stayed with our little family so wasn’t that big of a deal. Easy check in and check out. Would definitely stay here again.

Accommodation was ok and functional but somewhat tired. Had a 2 bedded apartment with outside sitting area and a distant view of the lake. Perfectly adequate for just the two of us but of course put up the price. There were laundry facilities but we did not use them. Couple of hot plate rings and a microwave allowed for some simple cooking.

An older, very basic motel. Rooms need renovation. They are clean, but not up-to-date or attractive. The location is great, right across the street from the beautiful lake.
