Pool was closed for maintenance when we arrived which was disappointing since we chose a higher priced hotel specifically for the pool. No discounts offered

The Edgewater Hotel is an older hotel, but frankly, I didn't expect it to be as rundown as it was. While the staff and breakfast were bright spots, the maintenance and condition of the facility were unacceptable. Major Issues: Parking and Room Condition The problems started immediately in the parking garage. It looks like it should be condemned. There was constant water dripping from the ceiling (source unknown), and tons of dirt and silt accumulated in the parking spaces. It is also super tight; if you're driving a truck or larger vehicle, maneuvering is a nightmare. The rooms themselves had a distinct, unpleasant, musky, yucky smell. Adding to the sense of disrepair, I noticed the external HVAC units were constantly dripping down the side of the building. Pool and Staff On the positive side, the staff was genuinely friendly, and the breakfast buffet was great—my children loved it. However, even the pool area, which my kids enjoyed, seemed quite run down. There were big, noticeable gaps between the pool coping and the actual pool structure itself that frankly seemed gross and unsanitary. The friendly staff and good breakfast cannot outweigh the significant maintenance issues, especially in the parking structure and the rooms. The location is great and we saw a bear, which was fun, but I will NEVER stay at this hotel again.

Clean rooms. Everyone super nice. Would have given excellent but charging $15 a day to park in your parking is ridiculous and there should be a designated smoking area on the property. If someone is complaining about smoking outside while they are breathing in all the other pollutants in the air then actually they should just stay home. Not being ugly but tired of being treated less than just because I smoke.

Had a great stay here. The staff was friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived. Parking was convenient, and the breakfast each morning was good with plenty to choose from. The room was quiet, making for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The location is perfect—walking distance to just about everything. And as a bonus, during our stay we even had the pleasure of watching three bears from our balcony as they wandered through the parking lot across the street looking for food. Overall, a memorable and relaxing visit. Highly recommend!

Everyone was super friendly, it was clean, and the beds were comfy. However, the walls are super thin. I know it’s an older hotel, so I guess that makes sense. You hear everything going on in the hallway or neighboring rooms. The parking garage is also a nightmare to navigate. We have a small crossover and it was almost impossible to find a parking spot to fit. Everyone has to park over the lines because the spaces are so small. Leaving the leftover spots about half their normal size.
