Cozy lobby. Quick easy check in and out. Convenient location. All rooms have a balcony or patio space. Grounds were well kept. Only 1 very small elevator that was in the other wing of the building, so be sure to request a room near it or on the 1st floor if stairs are a problem for you. We stayed 2 nights while attending a show at the BankNH Pavilion. Would do that again. Plenty of parking and easy access to that venue. Nearby beaches, restaurants and shopping. Just a few miles to Weirs Beach. Some road noise and a small municipal airport across the street cause moments of increased noise as small planes and helicopters went over.

Great spot for Laconia Bike Week. Pools were usually empty or only 1-2 people, so not crowded. Across the street from our preferred bar with other options within easy walking distance. Was pretty quiet despite concert-goers and other bikers staying. Will definitely stay again!
