Service
10
Mixed reports: several guests praised staff as friendly and accommodating with fast/easy check-in, while a few reported rude or careless incidents; overall enough positive mentions to justify a strong service score to offset other problems.
Location
9.5
Consistently praised (near lake, excellent location, easy access from freeway, convenient for events and biking routes).
Room Quality
5.5
Room condition and comfort were inconsistent: many complaints about hard/noisy beds and worn or damaged room elements (chipped ceiling, gaps in doors, slow toilets), but some rooms were described as clean and in good repair.
Amenities
7.5
Amenities are present (pool, sauna, lockers) and sometimes appreciated, but several reports of the sauna not working, pool not heated, and locker problems reduce the score.
Value for Money
6
Mixed: some guests called it good value or inexpensive, while others reported feeling price-gouged (very high charges for poor accommodations).
Food and Beverage
4
Breakfast repeatedly described as minimal or non-existent (mini muffins, granola bars and coffee), which many guests found unacceptable for expectations of included breakfast.
Overall Experience
6.5
Overall experience is mixed-to-negative: significant cleanliness and room maintenance issues weighed heavily against good location and generally helpful staff, yielding an average overall impression.

THE WORST EXPERIENCE IVE EVER HAD AT A HOTEL
Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

Everything. I woke up to mouse poop everywhere, even in my dogs food bowl. The bed was rock hard and horrible to sleep on. I had to wear shoes in the shower it was so gross and mold was on the wall in the bathroom. Staff was EXTREMELY rude when we asked for a refund because the experience was so bad.. we couldn’t even stay the second night because it was that bad. Everything was bad.

I will never stay here again; I would like a refund.
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Very disappointing experience. The pool was advertised as heated but was extremely cold, and the sauna was not working. Our room also had several issues: the toilet tank refilled every two minutes, the door had a 1/4-inch gap due to a poor seal, and the shower water had a horrible odor.

For the price of a hotel stay, basic amenities and proper maintenance should be expected. Unfortunately, this hotel fell short, and I would not recommend staying here.

Maybe it’s not all rooms, but ours was pretty disgusting.
Pros:

The location near the lake, and captain joe grill.

Cons:

Our room was dirty. There were dead flies in all corners, dead wolf spiders, our bed sheets, top sheet, and blanket were all stained. The ceiling was all chipped and falling. The bath tub has hair all through it still. The fridge was pretty dirty as well. We traveled for the game, so it did for just the night. We didn’t sleep with any blankets or shower in that shower. We didn’t put any of our stuff down.

Paid for too much with little accommodation.
Pros:

Staff we’re very kind and Lovely.

Cons:

The rooms we’re not very clean - hair in tub, floors very very dirty. Walking on them with bare feet upon arrival made my feet black within 15 min.

Pros:

Staff was friendly and accomodating.
Comfortable beds/pillows etc
Clean rooms/facility
Pool was nice
Fast and easy check in proceedure.

Cons:

Rooms could use updating but otherwise ok
One of the reasons I chose this hotel was for the Sauna and the Sauna was not working. Didn't heat up.
Told staff and he said he would let maintenence know. Was a little disappointed that it wasn't working.
