My room overlooked the roof of the attached summer restaurant. I would much rather have had an unobstructed view of beautiful Clear Lake. Bed was comfortable and being later in the year it was very quiet.

Our visit was in early October, but we still enjoyed the lakeside view. The staff was friendly The only negative part of our stay was that we were assigned rooms on the second floor and there is no elevator at the facility.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We picked Lakeside Inn because it was on Clear Lake, and it didn't disappoint. We took the kids to the city beach and we all loved it. Then, back to the room and there was a great restaurant/lounge right next door--all outdoor tables--where we had dinner and watched the sun go down over the lake. Don't miss the donut place a half mile north in the morning. The best!

The guy made a pass at me that was checking me in and since the place was dirty and then he asked for my credit card so I can hold $40. I decided to leave because I didn’t like being hit on and I didn’t believe I’m about needing my credit card the whole $40 and being at the place was dirty. I had enough and just left. I want my money back

Room is dirty and the place is just not clean. No coffee in the lobby as stated in the listing. Opened the toilet to find it dirty with pee and toilet paper inside. I think the employees are very lazy. Would not stay again. Not worth the view
