Just a good experience, the most pleasant was to hear the river with the window open and ability to sit next to it in peace

Loud construction. Be wary of building B!

I was put in unit 118 of building B. This happens to be right next to a major construction project. It was super loud early in the morning and late into the evening. Couldn't have been a worse room location. Also, the construction crew were using parking spots and put two of their trucks right in front of my room, smoking cigs and talking loudly. There are two other buildings, so I'd highly recommend you request those. These rooms should be heavily discounted or not used at all. The room was $185 for one very uncomfortable night.

The hotel is in a great location, but is pricy and in desperate need of a refurbishment. We had air out the room due to the strong odor of the deodorant/cleaner. The breakfast offerings were excellent.

Repeat customers here. Improved accommodations. Lovely riverside room. Quiet. Great bed. Easy checkin and check out. When i paid for room, they forgot to return my ID. And then called me to let me know. What a blessing that was too! Super nice receptionist: Denise!

Spider nest and multiple spiders in the corner of the heater in the bathroom, they had been there a while. Lots of construction adjacent to the property. Obviously not their fault but better signage for the rear entrance would have been nice instead of having to drive through the construction zone. Beds were comfy and the shower was nice.

The woman who checked us in was great. Friendly, helpful, etc. The maids were friendly and accomodating. The woman working the desk after was an absolute horror. Rude, angry - i greeted her with a good morning in the parking lot and she just scowled at me.
