Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The property is ok. But it's not the most well kept. Almost all the chairs in the lobby/breakfast area have stains all over them. The chair in my room had a very questionable stain The staff is ok...all be it they would rather talk to each other than take care of guests. 3 of us checking in at the same time atopd there for almost 10 minutes before anyone even showed up to the front counter.

When I walked in, the front desk staff was very welcoming! The hotel was super clean, and so was our room. And the bed was super comfortable! The complimentary breakfast was so good, and the variety was incredible. My overall stay was amazing. I’ll definitely be staying here again and recommending this hotel to my friends and family! Thank you for a great stay 👍

The pool was cold, so my children preferred to swim in the lake. Breakfast was tasty but the variety was average. The front desk workers were not knowledgeable and didn’t seem motivated to help. The staff running the breakfast were kind and exceptionally helpful.
