When we got there to check in the room had not been cleaned and it was about 4:30 in the afternoon. Staff was not aware it hadn’t been cleaned. We had an extra “hold” charge put on our credit card even though the room was totally paid for the day we booked. We went out for dinner and when we came back all the absavailable parking was taken and we had to park across the street.

An ok place to stay in GOTL

It was ok. The walls must be thin because you hear everything. There were bikers stopping in there that didn't even stay there and the bikes were loud. Parking is very limited. We had to park on the road. It's located in a great spot and the lake is literally behind the motel which makes for nice lake view. I'm kinda mixed on this review...it's not terrible but for the money???

I love this place , we’ve stayed here multiple times now and will be back next summer as well. Walking distance to everything , located right on the strip!! The lake view absolutely gorgeous and being able to sit right at the water makes this place a true little gem. Reading some of these not so great reviews I think “these people can’t be talking about the same place” lol - it has the older decor vibe and that’s what Geneva is all about. I highly recommend!!!

The place was clean and comfortable. Must walk steps to room 9. Liked the location. Room 9, lake view was on the side of the building, not facing lake. There were no chairs on the side deck to sit and drink coffee and see lake. No coffee maker in room. But, there is a convenient store across the street to get coffee. The beach is non usable. You can't easily access the beach. You can't lay on the beach with a towel. There is a wall you have to clinb down to get to beach and beach is more stones than sand. I had to walk down to sands motel to use the pool about 500 ft. Away. Comfortable Bed and pillows. Bathroom was basic but clean.

The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was professional but the front desk closed at 11pm and no one stayed on site. There is a little ice machine in the office that makes a few cups at a time; bring your own ice if you need more than that. Lovely area, little private beach, nice decks overlooking the lake. Bed was comfortable. The windows need shades to keep the light out (porch lights are directly outside).
