There were a lot of issues with our recent visit: no extra outlets for phone/USB charging, loose tiles on the bathroom floor, the shower was not working properly and dripped constantly, the toilet leaked and ran constantly, the elevator was broken and free breakfast was nearly all packaged foods or was poorly prepared. One of my worst ever experiences in a hotel.

Liked: Staff & service
The staff at this hotel has exceeded my expectations, and is equal to any 4 or 5-star hotel I have stayed in. The grounds are beautiful and quiet, with nice views of the Lake or the mountains. All units have a back door and porch. Cons - signs of aging, no work desk, weak breakfasts, etc. The cons are is all out balanced by the Staff experience.

This place is old and tired. The walls are paper thin. You can hear everything in the room next to you. The exterior needs a good cleaning too.

It might have been a great place at some point

I don’t know why this place has such great reviews. The front desk was friendly. They seem understaffed. When I checked in, I realized my toilet wouldn’t flush. My options were use a plunger throughout the duration of my stay, or change rooms. I changed rooms & the new bathroom had hair all over the floor & the toilet bowl was stained. Breakfast was unappetizing. Basically, food out of a vending machine.
