The room smelled of smoke which we were not expecting. Looks like our room was a work in progress. Looked like a new tub. Bathroom door could use replacement but it closed all the way.

slippery bath tub. Forgot to check room between days. Mattresses slipped off base. Garbage and new towels not done until I complained. Not easily accessible for a person using a walker. Big step into the room. More of a residential motel.

I stay at the Lakeview quite often to visit a relative in nursing care in Willmar. Everyone there is friendly, extremely helpful. The cost of a room is lower than others in area. They make me feel at home .

Was great

The woman at the front desk on our first night was great she went out of her way to get us into the room since she had never had a Klarna purchase. It was a quiet establishment and housekeeping was nice

Affordable

The lady at the front desk was so friendly. The room is about what you expect for the more affordable price. Some bumps and bruises, but it was a place to stay while we were in town for family events.

Great water pressure!

I could feel the springs in the mattress, but I slept pretty well. In fact I slept better than I have in “nicer” hotels with “better” mattresses. I was very pleasantly surprised with the EXCELLENT water pressure! The room was quiet, I slept well, and the water pressure in the shower was excellent! I found good value in this small hotel and would happily stay here again.

While the staff was friendly and there was daily maid service, the room was dirty overall. The bathroom fixtures were in need of repair. In this case, it seemed like you get what you paid for. A cheap room

There was a funky smell in the air, and the bed was way too hard. But you can't expect them to afford much on maintenance and upgrades at that low of a rate!

Away from the masses. Always get same room so i cant say about rest of them. The staff was super helpful. Gave us the office remote for tv as ours wasnt working. Have stayed here a few times. Its not for everyone but resonable .
