Much improved over the Sheraton that formerly operated the hotel. Dining options were very good; newly renovated rooms were great. Liked the blue tile in the walkin shower

The property and the stay was great however I didn’t enjoy the food at the connected restaurant Lak. The menu was limited. Cocktail and dessert was very good entree was a waist of $35. Overall I would stay again but next time I’ll stick with an appetizer and a cocktail if I must eat at Lak

Hotel and lake area was beautiful. Open concept flooring meant lobby noise traveled up the floors and could be heard in our room on the 3rd floor. Staff were very friendly. Had to ask for extra towels frequently as they only leave 3 bath towels per room. Ice is by delivery only. Restaurant and bar had delicious offerings.
