The Hotel staff was super friendly. The room was clean and spacious. The location is perfect to easily access the lake or the stateline or any dining or shopping location within minutes by foot. The Hotel itself offers some beautiful details like the outdoor area to relax and the bar/restaurant with a fine selection of local beers. We as a family of 3 would stay here again anytime. Highly recommended.

The staff is friendly, the place is quiet and free parking is a plus. The clearness is a concern, strong pee smell at stairs, the carpet in the corridor and room is very dirty. It will be nice to have a microwave either in the room or at the lobby to heat food for a small kid.

This property offers complimentary Tesla charging which is the big plus for me! My family and I stayed 2 nights consecutively. I did not like the property asking me to fill out check-in information twice and charge $25 twice for the security deposits. We were placed in the room next to the jacuzzi which was a bit noisy. The mattress in our room was not firm

This is a nice hotel close to the main street with shopping and restaurants and casinos. There is a beach in the other direction but I think there is a fee to use it during the high season. The staff is great. There is an outdoor patio with firepit tables, a lovely indoor reception area, a coffee shop inside the lobby (separate business), a pool and a large outdoor area with an evening band, cornhole, etc. It was quiet except for a large group of young people but they observed quiet hours for the most part. I'd stay again if in the area.

Great location. The beer garden on site is awesome and the staff in there is wonderful. Our room was on the 3rd floor and had an awful mold/mildew smell- not sure if all the rooms are like that. Property encourages guests to communicate via texts but they don’t respond.
