Nice hotel. It was located in a convenient location to the Surf Ballroom and it was nice that the hotel provided a shuttle to the concert.

It's a Kinseth Hotel Property
As by the title, as soon as I realized it was owned and operated by Kinseth I knew the quality of the ownership, having done business with them in the past. So, admittedly, I'm biased. I stayed in this property 20+ years ago and had a favorable experience so when the opportunity came up that necessitated for me to spend the night in Clear Lake I chose this hotel. Not worth the price. This was the most expensive hotel that was posted on hotels.com for this area. For this price, in my travelling experience, one would expect more modern conviences (i.e. direct USB plug in's for devices, better TV interface, a bathroom with upgraded shower heads). We constantly needed to jiggle the toilet handle to keep it from running. Caulking and damage repair was noticably visible in the bathroom Needed to return to our vehicle to retrieve power plugs for charging devices. Positives: The Post it note for 20% off in Bennigan's restaurant was appreciated. The breakfast buffet wasn't bad, something I hadn't experienced before, a rotating daily breakfast offering. Saturday morning was make your own breakfast burrito. Bottom line is that there are more affordable, updated newer hotels in the area. Take a look at those.

Staff was friendly and hotel was clean which was appreciated. Took a few minutes to get warm water for the shower, toilet handle had to be held down while flushing to flush completely, and mattress was a little hard. Other than those items, the staff made it a pleasant stay.

We had to drive around to the back of the property to get to the room which was in a separate building and connected by a tunnel. The on-site restaurant had a limited menu and bar closed by 9 pm.
