Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We had booked multiple rooms only to find out there were no rooms for us. The hotel did not notify us in advance that the Travelocity booking was unable to be satisfied. Needless to say this is a huge problem if rooms cannot be confirmed and held when an active Travelocity itinerary appeared as though rooms were confirmed

The name of the place made me skeptical but it was the only accommodations available for our one night stay. It is also for sale so I wondered about the upkeep. The room was very basic but clean. They had a coffee maker but no coffee.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We checked in and went to our room and were very disappointed. The room looked pretty clean but there was a used bath towel in the bathroom and only one clean towel. They quickly brought another towel and removed the used one. Only one chair in the whole room and no table or desk . We went out to get a bite to eat and when we came back we loaded up our belongings and left. Would not recommend.

Rumorz is a quiet friendly place.
Bed was comfortable, room was quiet with minimal street noise. Nice neighborhood for a walk with the lake about a block away. A state park was fairly close to the property.

I was very happy with the room. It was extremely hot while we stayed there and the air conditioner kept up. Check in and out was very quick and simple, the gal that checked us in was very friendly! I also like that there is a bar/restaurant across the parking lot that is clean, cool and good food.
