Budget friendly stay

I had a great stay! The room was very clean and tidy, with everything well-kept. For the price, it’s definitely budget-friendly and offers great value. The best part is that it’s right next to the lake, making it a perfect spot for a comfortable and affordable stay.

Wonderful! But sadly our room was next to a few rowdy drunks that argued till 1 am. I eventually had to ask them to stop because I couldn't get in contact with the front office as it was closed after 10pm. But the room was very nice and everything else was wonderful.
