Upon first impressions, I really wanted to leave a 1-star review. The front office spells awful. Our room was not ready at check-in and when we did come in, the fumes of Fabulosa had us needing to leave. And even though our room was late because of being cleaned the place was still very dirty. Stains on sheets and a lot of dirt and hair. But, I can tell that they are trying to keep this place going and it could’ve been much worse. When I inquired about the fire place not working, they fixed it. The heat cranks really well! The property is lake front as the pictures show, but the rooms and garden view are inaccurate. Please do not depend on the complimentary breakfast. The takeaway for us, was that housekeeping needs an overhaul and everything else could be overlooked.

The main heater is not working, so we are relying on a portable heater and the fireplace. Additionally, the bathroom door gets stuck and required someone to kick it open to get out. The staff is nice and I discussed the issue with them.

Worst hotel experience ever! The room was completely uninhabitable. The room was freezing, the thermostat did not work, the entire hotel’s furnace was out, and the gas fireplace did not work in 30-degree temperatures! Live and dead cockroaches were present and there appeared to be bed bug residue on the sheets. The second of two “queen beds” was actually a hide-a-bed spring mattress only a few inches thick that offered no support from a plywood "box spring" and the bed squeaked loudly with any movement. The ramp leading to the stairs was covered in about two inches of mud and dangerously slippery. The whole place smelled of industrial chemicals. I checked in but immediately had to leave after inspecting the room because the place was uninhabitable. The manager called the proprietor who then audibly yelled at the manager and ordered her to refuse a refund. The only consolation they would offer was an electric space heater with no temperature control which was a fire hazard particularly on wood floors. I ended up having to drive myself and minor child home to Sacramento arriving at 2 am. Avoid this place at all costs.

We arrived 15 minutes until check in time and the manager said we can check in with a $30 check in fee (which was on that’s their policy no problem). We decided to just wait the 15 minutes then check in. When we got to our room the small of gas was strong. My head started to hurt and my child that had asthma wasn’t feeling well. We tried to air out the room which didn’t work. My husband alerted the front desk she stated “it’s fine we just had the gas guy come.” No accommodation at all just “it’s fine.” We waited to see if the smell would go away it didn’t. We walked to the counter to alert the front desk that was also the manager about the gas smell. She was visibly upset about this. She rolls her eyes at my husband, snatched the keys from him and had a condescending tone. She said it’s fine but she will move us rooms and brought up that my husband didn’t want to pay the early check in fee. I’m not sure why that mattered!!! I didn’t feel comfortable staying there. 1- Her lack of safety concerns for the building 2- lack of concern for her customers and safety 3- She was the rudest hotel worker I have ever encountered in my life. We treated her with respect in conversation. I didn’t feel safe staying there. She bullied us and said she would not give us a refund, she stated Expedia would side with her and customers do not get refunds. I was shaken up with this whole experience, my children were very upset. She refused to give us a receipt. Please do not do business here!
