A nice room for an overnight stay. Bed was comfortable, room was large, and overall clean. The hot tub was a nice touch - make sure you call to reserve the tub. The “porch” is simply some chairs on the walkway in front of the room by where the cars park - not a private area. Easy walk to the lake and beautiful walking path around the lake. Lots of shopping and food options nearby.

Good location walkable to centre of town.
Staff in reception were excellent and helpful.
Coffee, soaps etc were of top quality.
Units are a little small for a family of 4 in regards to storing luggage but you can make it work.
