It’s a great quiet place to stay. Rooms are very comfortable. Bathroom is a little tight but shower pressure makes up for it. Breakfast was really good. Had to run the dryer twice to dry my load of clothes so that was a time waster

Great hotel but the carpet was not great and the big stain did not help. The shower door had brown scunge at the base which was no great. All and all very comfortable, well appointed and only minor issues. Will stay again.

I had asked for a room that would face the river because I wanted quiet, I was given a lovely room with windows on 2 sides but facing the casino across the street, which was noisy until late in the night.

The hotel itself was fine and pretty much as described. We were a family of four and the hotel would definitely benefit from added extras like a kids play room or pool. I probably would stay here considering the price.

Great location, beautiful area. Staff were fantastic. Only downsides I can really think of were not much actually parking for guests on site unless you pay for valet, and breakfast was a bit confusing. You either pay for continental (doesn't include hot foods) or for full.
