Very nice and spacious suite with a great jacuzzi tub. We were pleasantly surprised by how close the motel was to the lake and the famous church. It was very walkable, which made it so convenient for seeing the attractions, taking hikes and star gazing. The free breakfast was excellent. The staff at the restaurant went above and beyond accommodating our requests. The food was delicious! We loved our stay!

Penthouse was large with plenty of sleeping space. Found it odd that the toilet was in a separate room from the sink. There were no amenities, however there were numerous places to shop and eat less than a minute away.
