Older hotel with updated rooms. View from all rooms of a beautiful lake. We didn’t try the pool, hot tub, or sauna. Elevator floor could use new flooring. Free breakfast is underwhelming but all in all a good hotel for a modest price.

Ok but small changes could make it great

The location was beautiful and we loved having the lake right outside. The staff were friendly but our room was never cleaned unless I asked for it to be. Sheets weren’t changed, garbage wasn’t removed daily, beds weren’t made. One of the exterior doors was broken and you could access guest rooms and fully bypass the front counter which made me very nervous travelling with children. Finally the gym doesn’t open until 8am making it very difficult to get a morning workout in before starting your day.
