Basic room was perfect for one night stay. But the bar/restaurant was closed so we had to travel for food and drinks. Seems Friday and Saturday are the only nights anything is open.

Being able to see the sunrise every morning on the lake was just wonderful. And I wanted to buy one of their beds. It was the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in with the comforter and the pillows, and the bed itself was just really comfortable and helped me get a good night sleep.

The view from the balcony of our lakefront room was lovely. Unfortunately the balcony had not been cleaned - a few pieces of trash but the a/c unit about 6” from the chairs were covered in bugs. Hard to keep it clean with the nearby water but this was there when we arrived. The room was recently renovated and was lovely. We liked the location and had a great time in the area. We ate at the restaurant the last evening and enjoyed our food.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Arriving at the Showboat Hotel our room was not acceptably clean. The floor was sticky and covered with dirt, mini fridge had mold, and the balcony had dirt/bird droppings that was clearly not kept up with. I called the hotel desk which is not in on the weekends, after speaking with hospitality we were sent a housekeeper. The only productive thing accomplished was that our fridge was switched out for a clean one. The employee “mopped,” resulting in the same floor dirt being pushed around. We swept off the outside balcony/bird droppings and wiped the floor again ourselves. The balcony view was enjoyable, bedding and towels fresh, room was recently remodeled. It is obvious the staff is not thoroughly taking care of rooms between guests beyond the bare minimum. Management was not accessible over the weekend. When checking in ourselves, we stopped at the office to inquire. An employee (same housekeeper) showed us our room code on a list with current room codes for every guest. Extremely unprofessional from a safety perspective. The staff provided on-site was not thorough or overly professional. Overall, unimpressed with a hotel providing supposed-3 star amenities.

Showboat motel is a rip off they steal your money. Had 4 rooms same number code they gave me for the door opened 2 doors. Felt very unsafe we did not stay there and stole my monies for the room. Refused to refund my money. No one in the office at the place did not feel safe at all. Between this motel and Expedia who helped me get the room only ended up STEALING MY MONEY...

The hotel was exactly what we wanted. We had the king size room with waterfront balcony. It was nice to sit outside and see the beautiful lake. Bugs got bad at night but that’s what you expect with being lakefront in the summer time. We eat breakfast in the restaurant on property, buffet style. It was good, staff were very friendly.

So disappointing for our anniversary! The room was filthy, and it smelled like mold! We absolutely froze! We had turned the heat on, but still had to utilize the hot water from the shower, and the microwave in the room to warm it up! Definitely not worth what we paid!
