"Sa;rah at the front desk gave us a lovely room at the end of the hallway. It was amazing for the view and quiet. We really enjoyed our stay,. Elijah made a very nice espresso martini that we sipped while watching the sun set over the river. "
"Very well maintained, comfy bed, clean, tasty breakfast buffet. Riverfront location was wonderful with numerous, quality restaurants nearby. Walked along the river and sat on benches to read quite a while in the evening. Would definitely stay again!"
"The hairdryer could not plug into the bathroom outlet. And you couldn’t close the drain in the bathtub to hold water. I won’t stay there again. The woman had a bit of an attitude that I talked to, but the manager the next day was great."
