The front desk was super friendly and the breakfast was good. We found dead cockroaches in the bathroom. The facility had regular keys which didn’t work on our first room so we were issued another room. The neighbors stayed up and partied most of the night. Kinda a sketchy neighborhood.

We checked in around 9-10pm. Staff seemed sleepy and just completely zoned out. It took her a very long time to understand what she needs to do for us... it was a surprise for us too that none of the Rooms have air Conditioning. It was pretty old and stinky inside the rooms. The view from the location is great, right on the lake. The breakfast was great as well.
