The hotel rooms are super clean. The rooms have everything needed for a comfortable stay. The shower was very excellent. There is a large seating area outside where guests may sit and look at the lake.

I noticed cobwebs in the room. Traffic noise was audible because I kept the window open. A fire alarm went off three times early one morning.
