The customer service was amazing. No one bothered us and the place at night was so qell litt that the comfort of safety was high. Nothing in our room was ever touched or moved and my only complaint would be that ants were in the bathroom.

They lied in there advertising 1 their pool is not done. 2 there is NO Breakfast the room for it looked to have furniture in it but she said we don't have that. 3 the lighting in the room sucks at the sink the light there is so dark even if you turn the light on were the toilet and shower are it's not any better.4 You have 4 channels on the TV. 5 You try to use the plugins and there loose and when you turn the lights off if you have something plugged in it turns it off so if your charging your phone while you're sleeping it's not charging. 6 They don't have coffee not in the lobby or in the rooms.

We had a great stay at Laker Inn. The property is pet friendly and has a breakfast. We also appreciated the easy access location.

Worse hotel ever - horrible customer service. Checked in to rm 228 a room with 2 beds for 4 guests. Walked in to 1 towel for 4 of us and stained wash cloth. Spider crawling in the bath tub spout. 8 extra rolls of toilet paper but not enough towels for all guests. Upon asking front desk for towels we were refused towels because our friends staying in room 226 also with 4 guests got the extra towels so we couldn't get any. She said if you want towels go in the laundry rm and wash the towels and take them. Front desk was a horribly rude lady who said take the toilet paper rolls and roll yourself in it and accused us of lying about having not enough towels in the room. We even told her to come check out rm but she never bothered. Said to go call Expedia and tell them and check out since we paid a cheap low discounted rate. Wash cloth has a dirty black stain and looked like it was not washed. Toilet has a stain in it like it was not washed. Room key stopped working around 12 am and went back down to her to get the key fixed and she was rude. Asked her for a list of amenities the room should have and she said i don't know, then asked her name and she said i don't know and she walked away. Rude person with no communication skills and should be fired. Don't stay here - take your business somewhere else! There is no way these nasty rooms could pass any kind of inspection.

Unfortunately some of the staff here do not care at all about the guest, cleaning rooms, making sure bedding is replaced, and general upkeep of the property is just not there. If you have the option to stay elsewhere please do.

The hotel was clean. Very basic. Did have a fridge and microwave. So glad it had a fridge. Oddly the pool was closed and it was 4th of July weekend. The are doing a remodel which the old hotel needs. They have a hardwood floor not carpet. Would have been nice if it had a desk/ table and chair. Just had 2 beds and a tall cabinet that had the tv on it and the fridge and microwave in it. Again basic but clean

The young lady at the front desk is a very sweet girl. Always so kind. I do have to say that this time around the room was not very clean. Bed was poorly made. Dirt on the floor. Cable tv didn't work. But other than that I have always had great stays here.

Well when you book a hotel online and they say they have Continental breakfast you would expect that they actually do. They had no breakfast and no coffee gym equipment that you can't access. The rooms were so outdated and need ng was so old and not even a mattress pad on the beds. No fire alarm....it was laying in the window seal with no batteries. Light fixture was tore out of the wall.. I don't usually leave reviews but this isn't a place I'd ever recommend or stay in again.

Absolutely disguting property. Pictures listed online did not portrait this establishment. It was dirty, things were broken, and we didn't atay more than 10 minutes in our room. Bathroom was not cleaned at all and there were dirty hand towels left for us to use and zero bath towels linens were threadbare and I was hesitant in putting down my bags. Our room was at the back of the motel on the 2nd floor. When bringing our bags to our room, we saw some unmentionable items on the stairs. The lobby listed a sign that read "No refund at 15 minutes feom checking in." That alone should have acared us away. Do not stay here. Ever.

There was a dope baggie on the entertainment center. No plug for the bathtub. The bed was broke down so it was the mattress. The pillows were flat. When I asked for extra pillows, they told me they only provided two per room. I told her she’d give me some more pillows or I would get my money back the front desk was very rude. They beat on the door at 10:30 screaming check out was at 10 threatening to call the police on me if I didn’t get out right away. I don’t know if she called the cops or not. I got up and got dressed and left. This place is a dump. I wouldn’t suggest anybody stay there unless you’re a junkie when they would service you. Well you probably buy dope needles whatever you need right there on premises.

I was booked there for a one night stay with my 10 year old son. Upon arriving I was told I hadn’t chose ‘pet friendly’ and the only pet friendly room available was smoking. I accepted the room, but after entering the room I determined there was no way I was staying there with my child, the room smelled heavily of smoke, the lamps we’re hanging haphazardly off the walls, and the bathroom light cover was gone and wires were exposed. Also, the entire floor appears to have permanent residents as the walkway leading to the room was filled with work boots and grease stains from cooking by the doors to the rooms. I went to the front desk and let them know I wasn’t comfortable staying there, I was refused any money back because it was a non refundable rate, but I feel that if safety is an issue, there should be an exception. Would not recommend and would not EVER stay there!!
