Fabulous property with amazing and friendly staff from top to bottom. Never had a single encounter during our 8 day stay where we weren’t acknowledged with friendliness and professionalism. River view was wonderful, restaurant had delicious food and the club up top was classy. 5 stars all the way, and we hope to return soon!

The staff was not very friendly and not very professional. I had a jacket on the back of my chair at the restaurant and it fell on the floor and I was unaware my waitress walked by it and said hey, your jackets on the floor. Isn’t that some thing that you would just naturally pick up and give to the customer that you’re providing service to🤔
