It became Four Points by Sheraton Lakeside, which became Hotel La Quinta Inn Lakeside, which became Best Western Lakeside Hotel, which is now Maingate Lakeside Resort.

I stayed there one night in 1999 when it was the Four Points. It was cheap with SPG Points, but it was the first place I encountered a mandatory resort fee. I felt cheated by the resort fee. I have successfully avoided all hotels and resorts with mandatory resort fees since then.

Mandatory resort fee = hotel does not want my business.
