Room is cute. Lakeview is beautiful. Worth noting the restaurant is closed for renovations. On hotels.com it states $300 deposit at check in (which is quite high) after expressing $300 On line front desk still requested $400. When parking an alarm on vehicle near went off. Was accused of touching it! Adamant I did not. Brought up again and I asked to go out and look together but staff declined saying maybe I touched it with my back pack? Also no.
