"We absolutely love this hotel! We stay here every time we visit Clear Lake! The rooms are clean, the staff is very friendly and accommodating and the breakfast is great! Lots of variety and options (we are obsessed with the cheesey egg omelettes). There is a great pool and hot tub and the fireplace sitting area is cozy and welcoming. Thank you for another great visit!"
"There was plenty of beds to accommodate our group as we were enroute to a wedding. There was plenty to do including many books and puzzles. Having a full kitchen was helpful to prepare the breakfast."
"Would not recommend at all. Nasty. Small area to eat breakfast. (Didn't eat there when we walked in it was full of foriegners and STUNK) Couldn't understand staff at counter. Was upcharged for a double bed room since they didn't have a king non smoking room. Said i reserved a smoking room. I'm a non smoker i would not. The worst hotel experience ever."
