Hotel was in a great location, right on the lake. Nice patio to sit out on, have a drink (restaurant attached to hotel). What I didn’t appreciate was have to pay $20.00 to park! I don’t recall when I booked the hotel being informed parking was not included. Also, the parking lot was a municipal lot shared with people going to the beach, shopping and going to restaurants near by, we were very lucky to get a spot. Hotel staff just shrugged their shoulders and offered no options if the lot was full (staff on duty Aug 9th). This morning (staff on duty Aug 10th) did recommend alternate parking options.

Excellent view of the water. Peaceful. Staff was very friendly! Wish there were some drawers though, especially for those staying for more than a day. Could use the extra storage for clothes and devices.

El hotel es muy básico. Lo mínimo necesario. En 3 noches solo nos pusieron un juego de los gastables en el baño. El desayuno muy típico americano, ofrece variedad mínima. No había frutas pero agradable sentarse frente al lago para desayunar

Hotel is decent and staff is friendly. Location is really good, carpets in room can be cleaner but beds are comfy. Getting clean water in the hotel was a challenge as no fountains are around and only tap water is in the washrooms.

Great location, very close to water and wedding venue. However rooms are dated. My shower had mold all over the ceiling which is pretty gross. For the money they charge they should update it

We picked this location for the waterfront location and closeness to the downtown Burlington. It was good for one night stay. We would not recommend the breakfast but there are lots of options around the hotel to enjoy your meal.

Property was within walking distance of a variety of stores. The paid parking is something thag needs to be addressed, because they charge per night whether you have a spot to park or not. That’s a problem. Otherwise it was an okay stay, there’s no hot tub and the gym equipment is lacking.
