I have been staying here for ten years now. This is a convenient place to if you are working at the plant. I've seen this place go from good to okay, okay to bad, bad to horrible and making it's way back up again. I look forward to seeing how they improve this place. Not offering dinner was a bummer this last stay but understood why.

The hotel is an older building with no frills and very basic. However the staff is always pleasant, the atmosphere was quiet and the pond, lawn, trees and grounds around the hotel are well manicured and absolutely beautiful! I loved listening to the geese on the pond and other night sounds as I fell asleep!

The hotel itself is no-frills and very basic, obviously an older building that hasn’t been well maintained. However the staff is always friendly and helpful and the grounds outside are well manicured and absolutely beautiful. The hotel is right beside a beautiful pond and I enjoyed hearing the geese and other night critters as I fell asleep.

The property was in a pretty location and rooms were very clean. I had 2 rooms with 4 teens and 2 adults, although the price was great, i feel like i was mislead. And false advertisement. Pool hasn't been cleaned, it was green and couldn't be used. The internet was so bad it was no tv working. So i had 4 teens with no pool and no tv. Even though it was advertised as having both. I tried getting my money back before walking in the room but it was a last minute booking, no money back.

Management is very difficult to work with. It was stated to my son they would issue a refund for a stay they cancelled. Once Expedia contacted them they stated they unfortunately could not refund the money. No damages were reported, but they would not refund me. I paid for 5 night nights and he only stayed 1 night.

The new management is top notch. There's definitely a womans touch present. Surely there was work to be done esthetically, but it was evidently underway. We specifically appreciated the interest that management and caregivers gave to myself and fellow traveler. The lake was eye candy, and considered lagniappe.

Not clean

The hotel rooms were absolutely disgusting. The sheets were dirty, there was dust on everything. Just not cleaned well at all. The room also smelled like someone had been smoking weed.
