We needed a place to stay in the area and the options were limited. It was fine and what I expected - nothing impressive, but I’d stay again if I needed to for a night.

Nice place. Originally thought it was in the beach side of the street so we were disappointed we didn't have access to the Lake. Room was clean and comfortable.

The people in the room next to me came in at 1:00 in the morning slamming and bumping. I even knew that they brought in take out. It continued until 3:00 in the morning. At that time I could no longer Go back to sleep. There were some items in the bathroom that were of concern, but you get what you pay for.

Well kept property, clean rooms, nice staff. Would have been nice to have a coffee maker instead of having to walk over to the Bay Inn next door. Bathtub didn't have a plug or stopper to take a bath which my wife loves to do. Only a shower. Would stay there again.

Good evening , the property is connected to another property next to it , very out dated and dirty , tight fitted ! This property is worn out ! You should get your common sense together and not be associated with this property ! I would NOT recommend this property to anyone !! Very over priced !!

We had problems staying connected to the wi-fi; my computer kept disconnecting every few minutes and my wife couldn’t connect her computer at all and neither of our IPhones would either. Also the king size bed was too big for the room.
