The hotel was within walking distance of all major attractions, friendly staff, comfortable beds, and the lakeside rooms had balconies.
Positives: Our room had a beautiful view of the lake and nice balcony.
Negatives: Small bathroom.
Reviewer: Not provided on Fri 30 May 2008 rated 8 out of 10.
No complaints really. We had a balcony room and there was no screen for the sliding glass doors. It would have been nice to have the doors open without getting bugs in the room.
Positives: I liked that it was so close to the lake and the downtown area.
Negatives: The pool was small.

I love Lake Geneva, but certainly would not stay at this hotel again. We had guests come to visit and had some cocktails in our room. It was kind of embarrassing. The attached restaurant Gino East Pizzeria was great. Excellent food.
Positives: The view was awesome.
Negatives: It was outdated and had terrible bedding!

I have stayed in hotels that have purchased mattress toppers to place on top of a regular mattress to be more comfortable. Room was very clean and no foul odors.
Positives: I enjoyed seeing Geneva Lake from our room.
Negatives: Bed was very uncomfortable. I am spoiled with pillow top mattresses.

I enjoyed my stay here. It's situated in a great location, and has some nice amenities. Having Gino's East attached to the hotel was a nice perk. Parking can be a little tight at times. Room was nice but had a somewhat strong pine scent near the door. Not a huge deal but it was noticeable. Overall, for the price, I would recommend staying here.
Positives: Good location, reasonable price.
Negatives: Room smelled of pine air freshener.

Decent hotel for the price in this area. I've stayed in better hotels for cheaper, but Lake Geneva is expensive compared to other areas. I liked that we could walk to everything.
Positives: Very close to the lake.
Negatives: The lake view was over a building.

Pricey for the old look of the room, smoky smell, and dirty windows.

It was nice. I really wanted a room with a patio overlooking the lake front, but I received a room on the other side. I talked with other guest and everyone agreed the Continental breakfast should last longer in the morning (6-9am) is not enough time. It's fine for the business person who has to leave early, but most vacationers are just rising around 8-30-9;00 am.
Positives: Clean rooms, good location next to the lake.
Negatives: Continental breakfast was very sparse, and, the adjacent lounge accepted Cash only.
