The view & property was nice. Busy weekend in town so we had no parking to get to our room all 4 nights we were there. Same bedding, nothing extra as far as soap etc. We were charged more than the advertised price, it was supposed to be a non smoking property, yet our neighbors chained smoked the entire time on the deck so we couldn't open our door or windows & it was in the mid 80's. Beds were comfy, room was set up nice, but TV was very small and outdated.

I loved my room and the balcony overlooking the river. I loved the sound of the river while I slept and I felt safe enough to leave the door open with the screen door there. I loved seeing the bats flying over the river at night. I hope to stay again next July for the Blues Festival.

Lovely view of the rivers, nice touches with interior wooden decor. My only complaint was that I had to park my new car on the street at night due to a full parking lot when we returned to our room at about 9pm. I would have felt more comfortable parking my car in the lot where I could easily see it.
