Cheap Hotels near Waterford (PTK) Airport

We were pleasantly surprised by this cozy and comfortable place

Stayed for a youth hockey tournament. Hotel was very kid friendly

Host was great, the place was neat, clean and had all the amenities you would need. There is a nice view of the lake (even if it was frozen) and a public beach/playground right next door. It has a nice walking area too. The bonus for us was the fireplace, arcade games and game table!

One lamp did not work. The mattress did not fit in the frame and the comforter was so thin I was cold most of the night.

This property has great potential after some improvements can be made. What I noticed first is that I did not get responses to my messages. I was coming to town for a needed surgery and I had some questions about a late checkout. I did not get a response for weeks and almost had to cancel on the property when he finally responded. Communication is key. When we got to the property, it was snowing and close to sub zero temps and the thermostat was set to 57 degrees. We walked into an ice box that took hours to warm up. The home should be left at a comfortable temp for the clients. The 2 TVs did not work and we tried for hours and bought new batteries for the remotes. We were told to downlow and app and try to figure it out from there. Not an 'ok' response; the owners needs to get them working. The living room tv is barely holding on to the wall and needs attention quickly. The electric recliners do not all work. In my adult son's bedroom he encountered 5 large bugs, one on his arm. He killed them all and we have pictures. An exterminator is needed. This is a fun quirky property that just needs a few essential fixes and enhancements. A few throw pillows in the living room and a tissue box and some waste baskets in the bedrooms. The coffee station was top notch and the Christmas decorations in January were quaint. Just a bit more TLC and the property would be great.

Overall this rental suited our needs. Location right on lake was excellent. Needs an instruction manual left on site with Wi-Fi and other property info and owners expectations of renters during and upon departure. Kitchen counter needs updating and/or repair. Furnishings sparse and need cleaning. No dishwasher Owner/Host was very responsive and prompt to requests.
