Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is excellent, right at the end of the main street, so it's quite peaceful while still being close to all the restaurants. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, the rooms could really use some renovation as they felt small and dated. All in all, it was a decent place, but some updates would go a long way.
The hotel is in a great location at the end of the main street, close to restaurants yet not too noisy. Unfortunately, the rooms are quite small and a bit dark, making them challenging to navigate. The staff was friendly and helpful, including during our late check-in after midnight. Dining options were decent but felt overpriced for what was offered.
The hotel has a beautiful location right on the waterfront, which was a big plus. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but they could really use some refurbishment. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, which made the stay more enjoyable. However, the noise from nearby concerts made sleeping a bit tricky at times.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is fantastic, right by the lovely lake, making it a great place to relax. The rooms are clean but very small, making it difficult to fit more than one suitcase. The staff was friendly and offered great advice for hiking, which I appreciated immensely. While the dining was nice, I felt it could have been better with a few more options. Overall, it’s a decent place, but the room size was a bit of a letdown.
The hotel has a great location, just off the main street and close to all the restaurants, which gives you the best of both worlds—convenient yet not too noisy. The rooms were clean and comfortable but could use a bit of refurbishment. The service was truly awesome, with cheerful staff always ready to help. However, the Wi-Fi in the room was a bit disappointing, which is something to keep in mind.
