This was a 'date night' to also watch the Iowa Women's BB game (we're IA alums) Great location (on Clear Lake), a VERY clean room and well furnished. We'll be back!!!

Unfortunately I was a bit disappointed with this hotel.
Pros:
-staff was friendly and had good communication (they text a day before arrival to notify that the front desk would not be staffed on my arrival date, and emailed detailed instructions for self check-in)
-room was clean
Cons:
-I purposely booked this hotel to have a nice, relaxing view of the lake but instead there were construction materials obstructing the view
-there were stains on the headboard and bed frame
-the towels and couch were tattered and worn
-odd, lumpy pillows
-you can hear every noise from neighbors and people in the hall (bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper)
Note: because it was off season (December), the restaurant isn’t open

Staff went above and beyond to be helpful. They emailed and called to let me know the rooms were ready for early check in if we wanted. Clean, comfortable room with lake view. My only complaint is that the bed pillows were hard foam and uncomfortable. Will definitely stay there again if in Clear Lake.

Beautiful view from lakeside room. Room was small but had balcony. Bed was very soft and uncomfortable for sleeping. Shower door in bathroom came off the track with 1st use. No staff available onsite to report the condition of the shower door.
Very quiet room. Location is good. Accessibility to park and restaurants in short drive.

This boutique hotel sits right on beautiful Clear Lake, so the views are absolutely stunning, as are the sunsets.
The hotel staff were extremely efficient and friendly from the time of booking to when we checked out.
We had a king sized bed room on the upper floor with a balcony and 2 chairs and table, which was great for sundowners.
The bed was unbelievably comfortable, the room very spacious and clean with modern fittings/decoration.
NOTE - all the upper floor and lower floor rooms looking onto the lake also look onto the restaurant and bar, so privacy on your balcony is limited.
It's a short drive into town where there is a good selection of restaurants and bars.
Overall, we loved our stay and this delightful hotel and will be back!

Pros: Clean, easy check-in, lakeside
Cons: Shower was not suited for women, only one nightstand due to size, closet is not full-size, nor is ironing board, very little privacy on ground floor, no desk, noise from hall and other floors was very loud, lobby closes at 8pm, other guests experienced plumbing issues, door lock issues, keycard issues, ripped screen on screendoor. Overall not impressed and would not stay again for the amount they charge.

Very nice stay but could easily hear the goings on in adjacent rooms.

This property is right on the lake. We like staying in the fall right after the summer season closes so it’s not so busy. The busy summer is great too though with a bar and restaurant on premise.
Love this town and Inn.

There was a large cobweb on the top of my headboard. Not a great way to start the stay. No staff, that I saw, overnight then, only teenaged girls using their phones at the front desk when we checked. Couldn't help us with activities in the area either. Updated room and pretty.

Tried to check in, and the lobby was locked and nobody to be found. Sat in the parking lot, calling the hotel over and over until someone answered and finally drove over to check me in.

We enjoyed our two night stay. Hotel has been recently renovated. Bed was very comfy and bathroom was huge with walk in shower. Only downfall is the parking. There is enough parking for everyone but that’s it. No place to park and register if the lot is full.

Desk closes at 8pm.
AC put out very damp air. Everything felt wet.

We love the lake to you at the amenities. Having a little restaurant on the lake is great
4.0
Rooms are basic, no on-site amenities to speak of but many near-by. Best to try to get an upstairs room for a full view of the lake. There is a patio/bar/basic food service available overlooking the water.
3.0
This hotel is beautiful and provides lovely views off the balcony. The attached restaurant was excellent, a little pricier than other local restaurants but worth it. The cocktails were also wonderful. If you are traveling with a boat, there is a lot across the hotel to park, an area to launch and the hotel allows you to use a slip. I would stay here again. Very friendly staff!
3.0
Our stay was awesome. They even tried contacting us several times when we were close to missing check in time. (Although a note about that earlier in the day would have been helpful)
The only negative would be choice of breakfast both at the hotel and nearby are limited.

Beautiful views of the lake, right on the water.
