It was a beautiful view of the lake. We had a kitchen which was very adequate. We decided to eat at the bar/grill one night and were very pleasantly surprised that the drinks and food were well priced and of good quality. If you want to be near all the shopping this isn't it. If you want a place to chill this could be something to consider. WE WILL AGAIN.

We stayed one night for a one day tour of the city. Our room was clean and we had a first floor balcony over looking the beach. It was such an amazing view and that feature made our trip so much better. Thw locarion was perfect only about 10 minutes from the wineries and downtown restaurants. I had a great lemon drop at the bar and got to request tuned from the DJ. The only problem is there were a group of unsupervised children in thw pool area that were guite noisy. Overall great experience and will go again.

Our first time at this hotel and didn't know what to expect. We were very excited to see the clean, comfortable rooms. The view of the water and being right on the beach is a huge plus. Hotel has a nice restaurant and complimentary breakfast for the mornings. We definitely recommend the Parkshore hotel.

The view was spectacular. However, there were bugs all over the bed when I checked in and I can't figure out why. If the prior client left the patio door open and the bugs got in, I can understand that's not the hotel's fault...but how didn't they catch it when they cleaned the room?? OR, maybe they cleaned the room with the patio door open...I don't know. The housekeeper who came to change the beds gave me brand new linens, which was awesome, however, someone had left period blood in the sitting chair, so he had to go and find another cushion for us. There was also mold in our shower ceiling. Otherwise, I was annoyed that the staff of the lounge was circling our table like vultures while we ate breakfast. They were asking us what we wanted so that they could break down all of the other stations. We could literally not put our cup on the table without someone coming to collect it or asking if we were done. Then they stood around while we ate, so I finally asked if they shut down after breakfast, because we were the only family there and the woman admitted that they do. They were quite obviously ready for us to leave, even though they must not have been closed because a woman came in right before we finally gave up and left. The only other thing was that on the second day of our stay, housekeeping came in while we had the DND sign on the door...thank goodness we were fully dressed! The day we checked out, the housekeeping cart was in the middle of the hall when we cameout

Overall the room was very clean. We had a balcony room and it was covered with dead insects. Most likely it wasn’t swept recently and should have been. Also walked on the beach facing the water. There were several cigarette butts in the sand and sidewalk area.
