Clean room, lots of stairs and no air conditioning if you are there in summer something to think about! Parking free and available behind the building. The convenience of the restaurants was the best part. We had breakfast included and it was amazing at the old barracks restaurant. There is also a great pizza restaurant below the rooms which is fairly fancy. Not open Mondays though. Would stay again.

The property was clean. It was a distance away from the main town. You needed a vehicle to get into town. There was no lake view from the rooms only from the rooftop. Noise was audible from adjacent room.. at one point there was no water available to our room.
