We did not stay the night. Staff was very rude when I brought up the fact that there was not a lake view like advertised. Room 10 was very small and dark, Small little window you had to stand up and see out. Pretty sure that’s false advertising .

I ordered a room with lake view and the room they gave me only had one window overlooking a roof then the lake. They did not clean the room the first night i was there of what was suppose to be a four night stay. They did not replenish the complimentary coffee the first night and when i asked them they told me they clean the rooms first then replenish the coffee, which they did not do, so we cslled our stay short anf weng home. Very poor hospitality towards customers.

Great location, perfect lake views. This is an older motel. It shows its age. The door seals look like they should have been replaced years ago. Bugs get in through the cracks. But the management has updated the interiors of the rooms. There are newer floors, fresh paint, the mattress was very comfortable and it was spotlessly clean. Overall I would recommend it for people who are not picky. The views are really outstanding and everything in GOTL is in walking distance. Some pointers - There is no pool on site. You can walk down the street to tge sister motel for their pool. Parking is tight, make sure you are good at reversing. The "beach" is subjective. You can access the water from the stairs, but there is no place to really sit. There is no office or staff to talk to other than housekeeping. You revieve a text with a door code. For my husband and I, it was worth it and we would go back at that price point.

I love this place , we’ve stayed here multiple times now and will be back next summer as well. Walking distance to everything , located right on the strip!! The lake view absolutely gorgeous and being able to sit right at the water makes this place a true little gem. Reading some of these not so great reviews I think “these people can’t be talking about the same place” lol - it has the older decor vibe and that’s what Geneva is all about. I highly recommend!!!

Very nice spot for the price. The room was clean and comfortable and everything was in walking distance to GOTL offerings. A tad loud at times due to motorcycles, but that is beyond the control of the hotel and their staff. Also parking in the hotel lot can be tight, so expect to have to find street parking.

It was very affordable and clean. They had plenty of soaps and lotions and a coffee maker in the room. It seems like since C19 most hotels i stay at ris of the coffee. The location is just as advertised. It has a very nice patio on the lake. The bed and bedding seemed brand new.
