10/10 Exceptional

Upgraded to lake view room, room was very spacious. Bed was comfortable not to soft but for my husband who needs a firmer bed for his back if was ok. Ate at the hotel’s restaurant Calypso, hot honey chicken sandwich with fries was very good so was the pineapple upside down cake with ice cream. Staff were very polite and Jordan our waitress was very helpful with suggestions. Would definitely stay again

This hotel is in a great location. It is very clean and decorated very nicely. The staff was very nice. I have to say it was one of the best hotels that I ever stayed at.

The hotel is located on a lake in a quiet residential area. The hotel itself and the rooms are clean however, they are under a renovation so the outside Terrace was not accessible. Great place will definitely return when in the area

Awesome Find on Lake Sumter
Excellent hotel experience in a beautiful lakefront setting and a fantastic location in the middle of Lake Sumter Landing Market Square. After I checked out, I completed most of my remaining holiday shopping at the Barnes & Noble within walking distance of the inn and had a great brunch at the similarly nearby The Flying Biscuit (one of only two Florida locations). Will be back.

Great Location and Comfy Beds
The hotel location is excellent for walking access to Sumter Landing restaurants and activities. The staff is very kind and helpful. The beds are super comfortable, and the hotel bar has a beautiful view of the lake. Areas for Improvement: There is a huge area rug in the bedroom— it’s filthy. The lobby has very limited seating. So if you’re looking for an indoor area to read the paper and sip your coffee, you’re out of luck.
