fantastic Apartment Stay

beautiful viewspacious studiostocked kitchenetteluxurious features
this hotel surprised me kinda. a beautiful view of the lake was a highlight. the studio provided generous space and a fully stocked kitchenette. the bathroom included luxurious features.
i found the oven trays covered in foil, which initially seemed hygienic, but some crusted food was present on the other side of the foil. this was my only very minor issue.
Dining

adequate stay, minor issues

spacious roomlake viewmodern accommodationparking arealaundry facilitiesexpensive room
the room was quite spacious. it was close to shopping and dining. the beautiful lake view was something i enjoyed each day. i stayed for several days and found the accommodations modern.
the room was too close to the parking area. this meant i dealt with constant noise. i found little information about the area. laundry facilities charged extra, at $4 per wash and $4 per dry though i thought the rooms were very expensive.
