Just this room
The roooms were very nice. Very clean. Our only complaint was the air conditioner. It has to be just this room because I stayed in room 11 last week while meeting friends here. It was 62 at night on the thermostat. So I know it was just this room. I would always recommend this hotel.

Yuck!
Pellas were like sleeping on a rock. Roaches, even when the lights were on towels that were designated for boat use, but the same towels were in the bathroom dog barking all night long. Don’t recommend this place. If you really need to rest when you enter the driveway, it looks like you are in low income housing as the porches of the apartments upfront are cluttered With old furniture. Chickens and animals running loose. Not as advertised at all don’t know who rated this an 8.4 but they haven’t stayed at some nice hotels before I won’t be back.

Will stay again when visiting family. Convient and ground level, which is important to us. VERY clean and AC worked like an igloo, which we like. Staff super friendly and professional. Resturant on site closed for Mother's Day but Big Red's across street was good food and good service. Thank you Tenkiller Lodge for a great graduation weekend, Karen and Bruce
