Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I got here to check in, and they workers at the front desk refused to give me a king size bed, they had a couple available. This place is dirty and broken down, the cabinet door is broken and i almost hurt myself opening it to gwt to the refrigerator. This is the worse motel ever. I hate this place the owners are secretly recording guest they have been doing it for years especially in the rooms they use for short stays, and the rooms with jacuzzi bath tubs. The cameras are in the mirrors and hidden around the room. This place needs to be shut down

Landscape surrounded by a lake is scenic. But it was so noisy throughout the night since next door guests talked loud.
