We had a half river, half downtown view and it was fantastic. To see the big blue bridge lit up at night was really a sight to see. The room was comfortable, the breakfast was very good with a lot of options, and the staff were all friendly and helpful. This is not my first stay at this hotel and I came back for these reasons.
We love staying here and are repeat customers because it’s so nice! The back patio for adults and large grassy area for all the kids to play, the breakfast, the rooms….all of it is the best! Plus, the staff was genuinely friendly and wants to be helpful!
Love staying at this hotel because of the clean rooms and great staff. The hot breakfast is always wonderful. The beautiful downtown waterfront is an added bonus!
The room had a perfect view of the river and was very clean! At breakfast there was a girl who went out of her way to get me three trays because she noticed we had several children with us. I wish u knew her name but she was young and had glasses. Very excellent hospitality!
The hotel was fantastic. The breakfast was absolutely wonderful. The entire staff of this hotel were so kind and sweet. Especially precious she helped me get settled and and upgrade my room. I couldn’t say more nice things than we hope to stay here again.
