My stay at this motel was a mixed bag. While the rooms had their charm and were clean enough, they definitely felt outdated and in need of some repairs. The location by the lake was serene and peaceful, which was a highlight for me. However, the overall service left something to be desired, and I found the lack of amenities disappointing. It's a decent place for a budget stay, but don't expect any frills or modern comforts.
