Unacceptable
Room looked to be up to par, the tv took some figuring out and the bed frames are loud. Upon pulling back sheets and blankets we found a bed bug in the blankets and on the bed.

It was not at all like the website or what hotel.com advertised. No restaurant on site the building were falling apart. Mold in bathroom ceiling.the whole place looks like abandoned building.it smelled musty like a old basement. I booked this by the wonderful looks on hotel.com/website what a joke.i am very unhappy.they should have paid me to stay there. I will not use hotel.com again they must not check there properties before they show them on there website. Hated my stay and I will not recommend this place it my worst enemy.

The hotel was extremely dated cleanliness was at a bare minimum the staff was rude if you were even able to find them. I have stayed in a lot of cheap hotels but by far in my opinion this had to be the worst.

The online pics are misleading. It is really run down. We ended up not staying after seeing and smelling the rooms. There is no front desk - you have to call a number on the sign and someone comes out to the parking lot to meet you.

It's a convenient place to stay that is close to food and boat ramps. I remember this place was really nice when I was young. It's old and run down now but for $55/Night it'll work just fine.

Keep Driving!
Although the Expedia site has early pictures of the Ken-Bar Lodge before part of it burned down and the rest was allowed to deteriorate into something I would expect to find in a third world country, this place is a real eyesore both inside and out. I had to prop a steel chair against the front door of the room because the dead bolt was broken.
