Great location & clean rooms
Pros:

The room was great, very comfortable, roomy, nice beds. I liked the look of the lobby and the lobby bar. The location was very convenient - not in the super-busy areas (so not over-congested), but it was very close to be able to walk to all the attractions we planned to go to, walk to the college campus, easy to get to the restaurants. The staff was very friendly, and we enjoyed the view of the water.

Cons:

The only thing I didn't like was that, while there was onsite parking (which is a huge bonus), I thought the price was high to park there, and the parking spaces were very small. I could barely fit my vehicle into a space, and when someone parked next to me, I had to crawl in from the passenger side because I couldn't open my door. The other car was a mere inches from a cement post, so I know they could barely fit, too. I'm not sure if there was other parking available nearby that was more affordable and spacious, so maybe offer that option to the guests.

Its ok but not worth the money
Pros:

Beds were comfy, bathroom toiletries wonderful, staff great

Cons:

Tricky to find, parking is confusing and a real pain plus they charge 25.00 A day. Coffee provided in room is TERRIBLE, we felt a luxury chain charging what they charge would have decent coffee. No microwaves but they did bring one. Wake up call the morning we left never happened, were a bit late getting to our next venue.

Lovely room, lovely view, better communication from staff would be appreciated.
Pros:

The room was beautiful and well maintained. The view was beautiful of the lake.

Cons:

The staff never disclosed that I would be charged $25 for parking in their lot. I assumed (clearly incorrectly) that any parking would be included in the room charge. I don’t mind paying for parking but the additional charge without any knowledge was a surprise.
