10/10 Exceptional

Everything! The property was as pictured online. The room was clean. The common area was the same. The staff was friendly & helpful on the phone. The check in was easy. Parking was plentiful. The only drawback was the traffic noise at night because the room was on the main street. I will definitely stay here again!

Hidden gem in Lake City

My sister lives in Lake City, and we always had forgotten about this place. But, this time we remembered and tried it, and it was a super cool place. Very different layout with old school charm, great bed, great bathroom, and the kitchenette was super convenient also. Will definitely go back.
