The staff was nice and friendly. The room was okay and we didn't have river view which I thought I booked but because they said I booked that room my impression from the description and pictures was not what I expected. It was a place to sleep but for the price I paid it was not worth it.

Staff were great but the hotel had mold all around the tub and baseboards and beds ware not comfortable. The water pressure in the shower was very weak and for the price I would not recommend it. We also stayed at a log cabin with mountain view for a week and the cost for 3 nights at this place was more then the cabin for a week...

This hotel is a hidden gem. It was the best value for our money so far in our trip! The check-in staff was friendly, the rooms are updated and clean, and there was even a fireplace in the room. One of my favorite things was the bench by the river. So peaceful!
