Found any reason to charge for “damage” to the room which there was none. The “damage”’fee was more than the hotel. Sorry you have to do your job and clean carpets & change sheets that should not be charged. Highly do not recommend.

Overall this is a nice place. The absolute only issue we have is how the pool area needs some work. The area as a whole is so incredibly hot and the chlorine in the air burns your eyes. The pool and hot tub are kind of murky and look like they need a good cleaning. It seems like an incredible amount of chlorine is dumped into both pools in an attempt sanitize, but I think the formula needs to be re-evaluated. I honestly believe if they could just clean up the pool area and ensure they are following the proper chemical formula for this sized pool, the place would be so much better!

The staff was very nice and the property to what we saw clean and good shape. Well taken care of. Unfortunately, we were unable to get near the pool to use because it was also used as a community pool and was always packed with people.

The facility and accommodations are fine. Our experience with check in was rough. We were given info that check in time was 2pm so we arrived at that time. The girl behind the desk told me it was actually 3pm. Understandable but how I was told and it was handled was not good. It was not explained to me that that was their policy and their system would not allow, I was told only that it was 3pm and she was not going to check me in. People skills were quite lacking. Keep in mind this was in the middle of northern Wisconsin in mid January so not their busiest time by any stretch of the imagination. We decided to sit in the lobby until 3pm. That time came along and there were about 6 people waiting to check in. This is the time they decided to do a shift change. The girl coming in did what she could. The girl leaving sat behind the desk on her phone. Seems as though some employee training and policy change may be in order. Otherwise a fine facility. I would stay again.
