Nice, clean, simple hotel
Nice simple hotel. Beautiful views of the lake. Lots of snacks offered for guests. It's an older hotel, but its clean and comfortable. The staff is very nice and friendly. It's a walkable community. We went for a class at the North House Folk School. I would stay here again.

Place has not been updated in decades. They have a boiler for heat and you need open the window to control the temperature in your room. Stained carpet and bedspread. Very old mattress. Unkept outside of building including broken shutters, huge dog/moose turds and cigarette buts on flower beds. We had a four night stay without a single house keeping visit and only one set of towels per person. I would not book this again.

Oh boy
The thermostat must’ve been broken because it was 80 degrees in the room when I got there. Tried turning it off, but it just kept going. Tried the front desk to no avail. No wifi password given.
