Stayed at Lanz’s for a few nights in August while on a long trip. Had a great time, relaxing, friendly staff, comfortable rooms, kids loved the pool and sand beach. One of the best stays on our journey. We will return and would recommend it.

Beds are like sleeping on bare springs - absolutely horrible. For $90 a night, no housekeeping! I had to ask for towels. Stayed 5 nights and nothing was cleaned during that time. Complete ripoff and they don’t care. Complained about mattress and he said he never heard that from anyone before. What a lie - look at the reviews. Had to buy a foam mattress topper. Stains on ceiling….. Just gross. And air conditioning unit very musty.

Everything was very clean and staff welcoming. The rooms….holy 1980. The beds are like sleeping on a sheet of plywood, the pillows like 1” thick rocks. And don’t forget to bring TP, because they don’t even leave a cheap $0.89 roll

This is our third time staying here. Decent price for minimal amenities and mostly just needed a place to lay our heads and shower after being out all day. Pool and the little beach are great and rooms were very clean although the bedding and mattresses really could use a serious upgrade. I can’t say I didn’t have second thoughts before laying on them 😬

Only negative. Rooms don't have a coffee maker, they do not supply shampoo. Very clean for a inexpensive overnight, or couple nights
