We were not good enough

This hotel is not worth staying at. Although the view is very nice the hotel front desk staff is a nightmare. They were curt and rude. Our stay was interrupted by a VERY LOUD wedding party. At 11:00 pm and 2:00 AM. When we told the front desk they couldn't care less. It was obvious that the other party were far more important than us. Do not waste your money or time here.

So this property is really lovely from the outside, we stayed in the 2nd floor of the adjacent building built in 1923. Cleanliness of the room was poor, carpet was dirty, bed looked as if someone didn't change the sheets. Staff was really pleasant, and the closeness to Mt. DORA downtown made up for this a bit. Its not worth what they want to charge you for a stay.

This property is right on the lake with a beautiful view of the evening sunsets. You literally walk out of the parking lot and you're in downtown Mount Dora. Great location for a two night getaway! (although in that timeframe you will not be able to eat at all of the wonderful restaurants available to you😊)

Beautiful inn right on the lake to watch the amazing sunsets. Charming. They have kept the old style feel to it. Only downside I experienced was the paper thin walls. I heard some things I wish I hadn’t walking down the hallway one day! Also, not enough outlets for this day and age, but that’s to be expected.
