The First Lady was nice but you got locked away from the lobby and have to go across the street to a rude lady and then the coffee was horrible. The hot tub had parts coming off and some nasty looking rust floating that a fellow man pulled out and sat to the side. There was no one to talk to about it cause the lobby was closed.

This was very disappointing to us! The hotel had a bad musty smell. We had mold on bathroom ceiling. No fan in bathroom. Tub ledge in king room was cracked. AC wasn’t working well. Fruit flies in the room. Bathroom door was so warped it wouldn’t close. Beach had grass and weeds - not like the pictures. Very outdated. Door to room was difficult to open and constantly stuck. Overall, it was a waste of money. Spent three nights for almost $700. Wasn’t worth it. The only good thing about that place was the gal behind the desk. She was super nice. Too bad the hotel didn’t match her personality. No breakfast for the price. Won’t ever stay there again.

This particular Ramada Inn is desperately in need of renovation. For the price of the room, the carpet did not seem clean, the light bulbs in our bathroom were exposed, the balcony was carpeted and looked moldy, did not go out so can't be sure, the outside doors were open to anyone who wanted to go in, not locked & obviously felt a bit unsafe, until this place is either totally renovated or rebuilt I would not recommend it, the correct room price should have been $75 not $177.

I like the view I did not like the tub that was cracked and I couldn’t take a shower. I asked to switch rooms and the lady did but unpleasant about it. I did not like there was no breakfast and in the pictures it showed breakfast smell in the hallways And elevator were like wet, damp smelling Needs a good cleaning and pest control to get rid of the fruit flies all over

Do Not Stay Here!
I never make a negative review, but, this hotel was horrible. Our room smelled terrible, it was very musty and the carpets were damp. The pictures online are completely outdated, the outside hot tub was empty, broken and moldy. The outside decks were filled with trash and mold. This hotel should be closed down. We were disappointed that you would advertise this hotel. Do not stay here.

We used to come to this property quite a few times. Last time was a few years ago. We decided to book again this year. Got the same room we had the last previous time which was cool (Room 317) When we booked, it said continental breakfast. There used to be a large dining room on the second floor, you could see it from the pool. Apparently they stopped the breakfast. The hot tub in the Crows Nest is still there but looks like it hasn't been used in years. The deck area where it's at is so full of Algae, mold and overgrowth is not only disgusting, its dangerous. The balcony of 317 overlooks this and also has Algae and overgrowth on it. At no time when we booked, were we told the hot tub was out of order (the 1st floor hot tub barely works) Our room while clean, the wallpaper was peeling from the walls and the room, the smell of disinfectant or whatever cleaner they use is over powering and only half the lights worked (the ceiling fan was a point of concern for me. It's a shame, this used to be such a wonderful hotel, but it doesnt look like anytime was spent on the upkeep. We invited friends with us and it was embarrassing because over and over I was saying "this used to be a really nice hotel" Thes staff was excellent from the front desk, to the cleaning crew to the maintenance man (yes he had to come to our room to take care of the TV) But, whomever the owner is, should be ashamed as to how far standards have fallen and the conditions of the hotel

Great Stay!
Room was good & clean, just the carpet looked & felt old and dirty. Hallways were musty smelling but overall our trip was great and would stay there again, but get a room on the beach side. Hot tub & pool were clean and enjoyable. Service was excellent at the lobby and she was so nice & friendly. Maid was exceptional and did a great job too! I have so many ideas on how to fix this up because this hotel has so much potential!

I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone.
Place was very dirty. Room they assigned us was not clean. Windows were so dirty you couldn't see out of them. Had a dehumidifier running because room was so damp and smelly. We could not stay at this place it was unacceptable. They refused to return my payment, but i wouldn't have stayed even if the room was free. Beware rooms look nothing like pictures on website. Very deceptive. Just look at the picture I took below.
Entrance to section of hotel where they assigned me room. This was just the beginning.

This hotel was ok.
The website there were two on site pools and two hot tubs. We only saw one indoor pool and the second hot tub wasn’t and doesn’t look like it’s been used in a very long time. The rooms were ok.

The photos are very misleading. This hotel is extremely run-down. The worst part was the extreme mildew smell in our room. Obvious water damage. Dehumidifier was left in our room so they know about it, too. Hairs found in and around Jacuzzi tub. Hair found in sheets, when we complained, housekeeping came back to change sheets again and I know the sheets were clean, but I found yet another hair. Didn't complain, just picked it off. Wallpaper peeling in bathroom with mold behind. Cardboard/paper down in the shower to hide cracks. Outdoor patio covered in moss and trash. The beach was also littered with cans and trash. The bathroom fan was extremely loud/broken. The slider was very hard to open and close. The lake water was clear and clean and beautiful. Nice beach chairs... Pool and hot tub seemed fine, just very run-down. This property needs some major love. Definitely would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Save your money and go to a hotel without lake frontage, or spend the extra money for a newer waterfront hotel.
