I felt welcomed from the time I arrived. My request to arrive earlier than scheduled was greeted with a "yes" following an early morning flight. My request for a room facing the river was honored. I enjoyed the river view immensely. The view also afforded me the ability to watch all the hustle and bustle below. I felt comfortable and at home.

Room was large and clean. Staff was friendly and coffee every morning was good. Valet parking was super easy and great location on the river. Only issue was it was fairly noisy where our room was near the stairway and a door was slamming throughout the night, each night.

Stayed for our wedding anniversary. They gave us a bottle of wine and a free meal in one of the restaurants on the property. All the staff were super friendly and helpful if asked anything. Rooms are clean, but needs some cards for guests to identify minor maitaince needs. Overall great, attended the manger's reception, open bar and hor dourves. Only thing, they charge a 'resort fee' on top of the room cost of $35 a day, so it isn't really free.
