Checked out as soon as we checked in.

Like sleeping in a prison closet. Window was cloudy, linens were dirty, lamps did not work so we were left with a beacon overhead light, very dirty carpeting in lobby and room, no real lake view( pics are VERY deceiving. Checked out as soon as we checked in.

The property was very dated. Deck boards were loose and dangerous feeling. Although our bathroom was updated, the fact that the bathroom door was practically off the hinge, the tv didn’t work and the decor was absent. Not a single picture or painting on a wall to add some sort of homeyness. Felt very bla.

Ok. Will not stay again.

When we arrived there, there was a dirty towel folded up. The towels were very small. There were no nightstands. There were no shelves in a brand new shower. The bed was fairly comfortable. The ceiling was low on the 3rd floor. The ramp to the entrance was unsafe. No pool. The owner was friendly.

Our hotel room was very dirty. Finger prints on the windows, stained bedsheets, and to top it off there was used woman sanitary products under the sink. The manager was quickly informed and even though he was very kind, no type of refund or incentive was offered. We will not be coming back.
