Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a delight. The rooms were spacious with a better view of the lake, large, comfortable, and exceptionally clean. The service was absolutely wonderful, with very friendly and helpful staff making my experience excellent. The location was perfect, across the street from the lake and at the corner of two main streets with a breathtaking view of Mirror Lake. The dining experience, although signed up for at a nominal fee, was wonderful with delightful smoked fish options. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything I needed for a relaxing stay.
I must say that my stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. On one hand, the room initially had a view of the roof and lacked a balcony for some quiet time, not ideal. However, the cool Adirondack wood touches and funky vibe were nice, though it could get noisier. The service was super nice and very helpful, which made a difference. The location was perfect for walking around town, but the noise from kids playing in front of the pool was a downside. The dining experience was delicious, signed up for at a $10 fee, but I didn't expect it to be an extra. Overall, an interesting stay with some highlights and drawbacks.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The lower-level room I booked with an expected lake view exceeded my expectations with its Adirondack wood touches and funky vibe. The service was top-notch, accommodating our early arrival for a family gathering. The location couldn't be better, right on the corner of two main streets and across from the stunning Mirror Lake.
Wow, this hotel was such a gem! The rooms were impeccable, and it's just a short stroll to downtown. The balcony, complete with an incredible view of Mirror Lake and the avenue, plus a cozy fireplace, made my stay truly special. However, my room wasn't ready until 5:30, which was a bit inconvenient, and I had to call to address the delay.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. While the initial room allocation was not ideal with noise from kids playing by the pool, the staff eventually moved us to a more peaceful room with a cool, cozy vibe. The service was very friendly and accommodating, making our family gathering enjoyable. The location was superb, allowing easy access to all the nearby attractions, although the dining experience was a bit underwhelming. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were cool with board games and a view of the lake and town adding a nice touch, but unfortunately, my room only had a view of the roof without a balcony, and it wasn't ready until 6 pm.
