Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location was close next to the lake. The bed was bad and on a metal platform so it made weird noises whenever you moved. The room was small and bathroom was even smaller. The worst part was the SPIDERS! There was such a huge gap under the window air conditioner that anything could have come in! Soo many wolf spiders that we left before sunrise. Couldn’t leave any faster! Will not go back.
