This hotel says lakeview, our view was looking under the entry way awning and above the balcony railing, so not much lakeview really, they ran out of towels at the waterpark,ckids had no towels to dry off with, out of hotel towels so limited showers. And no extra blankets, we were given one extra sheet, we had 5 kids with us so that was a bit annoying. I feel like the staff were trting to be friendly after holiday weekend.

Not for families with kids

I booked this hotel by seeing some good reviews on Hotel.com. When we arrived, there was only a receptionist to checkin. The hotel cleanliness was not maintained well outside. When we walked through the stairs, we experienced a very strange water odor smell mixed with some weed smell. We got the room in second floor and the room was neat. However, the patio door was open. There was no lock system for the patio door. I contacted the hotel staff to fix it and it took 45 mins. Overall, the stay was not so nice and the hotel was not worth to stay for families with kids.

Dated but clean

Very dated but clean. The water park was why we stayed, but it isn’t open in the mornings and the water for the water slides wasn’t working which was unfortunate.

Disappointed. Look for the price point I did not have high expectations. But even still this hotel failed to meet them. The bed did not have fitted sheets. The AC could not be turned down below 74 so our room was hot and they only sell water for cash which when you arrive at 11pm means no water for you until the next morning because everything is closed. It would not take much for them to significantly improve the experience. Get fitted sheets, let me adjust the air to a temperature between 69-72 degrees and let me buy a bottle of water with a debit or credit card.

The location in relation to the city was decent. It was about a 10 minute walk to the shopping areas and Shepler’s ferry. It’s right across the street from Arnold ferry, so keep that in mind when booking. I was disappointed with the room and lobby. They do not offer breakfast and the options for drinks and snacks is very poor. Being that you aren’t close to the main shopping and restaurants, you’re either walking or driving to get anything of substance to eat or drink. The room was their king, queen, sleeper sofa room. The sofa room, which was right as you walked in, has no airflow, so it is stuffy and hot. The TV was not even connected and required Spectrum to come fix it. The security lock on the door was cracked and had only one screw keeping it attached to the door. The towels in the bathroom were partly stained/discolored, requiring us to request more towels. The AC itself in the main room wasn’t very strong/inconsistent so I woke up hot and cold throughout the night without adjusting it at all. The remote for the TV in the main room was not programmed and they didn’t have anyone on site to fix it, so we couldn’t watch TV in either room and they made no room price adjustments. The screen on the screen door to the balcony was significantly ripped and not secure, making it difficult to leave the slider open and not worry about bugs. The water park area was entertaining but I highly question its level of cleanliness and there were some safety concerns.
