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.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Stay was great. Ignore previous negative review as Expedia had not billed me at time of reservation. Bear in mind lobby closes at 6pm. Staff, Michelle, was awesome. Only negative was that the media player remote had corroded batteries and did not work. Was able to hook up our own fire TV stuck eventually after figuring out the complex tech setup. But these were minor things. Fantastic value, great rooms and very clean.

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.
