Liked: Cleanliness
If it's all about location, then this hotel is excellent. But beyond direct beach front access, this hotel is pretty bare bones (not even a toilet paper holder!). Staff was ok, but after we checked-in, they didn't acknowledge our presence. Would stay here again only to have excellent beach and hiking trail access. Otherwise, not much going on.

The views!! What a gem on the lakefront. Cool retro building that’s updated and sparkling clean inside. Kind helpful staff and nice room with an awesome view of the lake, all at a reasonable price. We missed the restaurant due to holiday hours, but excited to check out next time!
