The location is very good, close to a supermarket and many restaurants. The room we were given in the main building was very noisy. The noise from the kitchen extractor fan downstairs and from the laundry room was a problem.

It was a nice room. Just weird because you have to put all your used linens like towels, wash cloths in a laundry bag given and place it outside room door for next day exchange. Same as garbage. No one goes into your living space to clean.

The location is ideal close enough but far enough to the activity. Rooms are well appointed, clean and are a small efficiency. Parking is easy. Property is beautiful. Staff is friendly and helpful. Close to numerous restaurants and a quick walk to the lake. Only thing missing was a second mirror outside of the bathroom, so that one can put make up on or do hair while other is showering.
