Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel had a great location right by the river, which was perfect for my workplace. The rooms, despite being motel-style with outside entrances, were fully equipped with essentials like a refrigerator, TV, microwave, and hairdryer. The service was helpful and accommodating, and the staff was very respectful of my privacy. The dining options were basic, but there was a small reception with coffee and some cereal available. Overall, the location was excellent, and the price was fair, considering the value provided.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms, although clean and with new furnishings, had an outdated 80s style and the external entrance was not ideal. The service was exceptional, with the staff being incredibly helpful and respectful. The location was lovely, right on the shore of a lake, but the dining options were quite basic. Overall, the hotel has its charms but also some drawbacks.
