Nice Place

I've stayed at this hotel a couple of times recently. Each time I've found the hotel to be clean and the staff to be quite responsive to my queries/requests. I would stay here again in the future when traveling to the Portage/Dells area.

The property and rooms were quite dated and were in need of repair. The hot tub was broken with no estimate when it would be fixed. The television in my room wasn't working correctly. Maid service did not occur for the four nights I stayed. Carpet in the hallways were stained and dirty. I will not be staying there again!

Not fancy, clean room to get sleep btween ski days

The hotel is fine for a place to sleep. The shower design makes it hard to keep water contained, and it's clear this is a problem. It's also a bit weird to have the coffee maker in the bathroom. The beds were good, and the room felt clean. Expectations weren't all that high, but breakfast was actually better than I figured it'd be. Check-in and out was easy. In short, I would stay again, but only if the price was cheaper. I picked this higher priced hotel thinking it would be nicer than other nearby ones, so I might try a cheaper place which would probably be similar next time.
