"Stayed here 2 nights. Room was nice and clean. Breakfast was continental. Basic cereal, muffins, waffles, yogurt, etc., wished it would have been more. Gas station is connected to property which was nice. Casino also in attached lot. Hotel could use some updates but staff was very friendly and helpful. No pool but large hot tub."

Crown Choice Inn & Suites Lakeview & Waterpark

8/10 Good
"We enjoyed our 3rd floor balcony. Our kids loved the splash pad and swimming area. You can also go to another splash pad area just a minute or so away depending on where you stay. No breakfast but it’s no worries as we brought a bunch of food with us. I would stay here again. The screen door was broken and there was some mold on the bathroom shower curtain. Also the hair dryer and the back up hair dryer didn’t work at all. If any of this applies to you just speak up as staff were very friendly and all around the hotel was very clean. Great view and would safer again."
