Jose and rest of staff are best ever with their friendliness and desire to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. The only improvement they need to make is to regularly clean the out door seating and replace torn and ripped seat materials that are visible and off putting. Bird poop everywhere on seating spots outside when you want to enjoy the beautiful lake.

This hotel was so beautiful. The bed was the most comfortable. Hotel beds are not know for their comfort, but this one was amazing. The breeze off the water, the customer service was great. Perfect for a simple honeymoon or anniversary getaway. Definitely staying here again!!!!!

This is a beautiful building with lots of charm. It does feel a bit neglected in the outdoor spaces. Pool furniture is tired and needs pillow replacement. I am fussy about cleanliness. On the surface things looked ok. However, if you look closely, the rooms need a serious deep cleaning. We didn’t use the patio outside our room as it was full of leaves and the chair pillows were not clean. The location was convenient for us and the room price point was very reasonable. We would highly recommend if the improvements listed above were possible.

I booked the Superior Room specifically because the listing on Hotels.com showed rooms with hardwood flooring, which is important due to my wife's allergies. However, upon arrival, we were given a room with old, dirty carpet that hadn't even been vacuumed properly. I have photos to document the condition. The balcony was also very dirty, making it an unpleasant space to sit and relax. While the view was nice, that was unfortunately the only positive aspect of our stay. Even the pool was not clean, and we ultimately chose not to use it. Overall, this stay was a disappointment and felt like a waste of both money and time. It's a lesson learned-we won't be returning, and I'll be sharing this experience in reviews so others can make a more informed decision.

Disappointing, overrated

This place was extremely disappointing. I have been eyeing this place for a few years now and finally had a chance to stay a night with my wife. 1st, out room was of course right next to the entry/lobby and we could hear every thing going on outside the room. The bathroom sink was clogged The towels had a strange texture that didn't dry but almost repelled water The TV was broken, screen had a bunch of bright dots on it, had to use 2 remotes for it to function, and the mount was partially ripped out of the wall. The patio was dirty and unkept. Both lamp shades were damaged and wouldn't stand straight. The floor and walls behind the furniture were completely filthy and probably haven't been cleaned in over a year The patio door drapes were also filthy and stained, bad paint touch ups everywhere Flying insects all over the ceiling and in lamp shades Patio doors barely shut with poor seal A shotty room at Best As usual, the pictures on hotels.com paint quite a different place than in reality. Pool was dirty, unkept Maybe they put it us in the worst room, but I don't know how all the praising reviews aren't doctored I've stayed in cleaner and better kept Best Westerns.
