While this is an older hotel, we have got a very nice, clean room, with a great view of a green and calming backyard from the balcony where there were 2 chairs. The room had a laminate floors, TV, small fridge, microwave, a table with 2 chairs and a nightstand next to bed. The beds were in a very good condition and clean. Staff was very nice and accommodating to anything we asked. We were very satisfied with our stay in this hotel that is located also very close to the center of Lake Geneva city. There was plenty of free parking outside of hotel.

Pool was empty although the pictures of the inn show a water-filled inviting pool. The owners/investors should commit to major cleaning and upgrading (beyond what room service cleaning can provide). The office managers were very personable and helpful.

Disliked: Amenities
So to be honest it was very clean and staff is very friendly. On the flip side the building is very old, the pool was drained and was not made aware of, no ice machine or vending machines. It did have a very small frig and microwave but no coffee. Coffee was available in lobby in the morning but no breakfast of any kind so for the price it should have had more amenities. Rub handle is hard to pull out and hard to adjust hit cold due to it spinning on the fixture

This property is part hotel part long stay housing. The man working at night was friendly and told me I was getting such a great room. It seemed okay at night; at least the sheets seemed clean. Mattress was warm in several spots, the room was so dusty, dirty toilet, hair clippings in sink, walls have food specs on them. There was a bottle cap on floor (not mine), clothing tags on floor. Crumbs in drawers, the kitchenette sink had crusted on food

The hotel's location is advantageous, however, its cleanliness is lacking. The pricing was acceptable, but the hotel's infrastructure is antiquated and in need of modernization.

The hotel is old and just shows its useage. No pool as advertised (feel not really being renovated). Front doors locked early with no further advisement.,. Had to find entrance on our own. On the plus… staff friendly and considerate. Helped with a personal situation. Room clean… hotel quiet.

The hotel was old-looking and definitely in need of a remodel. The rooms looked not very clean. The place is located a few minutes from downtown Lake Geneva, that is probably the only good thing. Also, there is only one lock on the door. The rooms smelled inside, and it was not a nice smell. I definitely would not stay there again.
