River Terrace Resort & Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay. Room as very spacious... not cramped at all. Room was exceptionally clean. The only draw back is there could have been a little more light. There were only 2 lamps on the room.... a floor lamp and 1 lamp on 1 side of the bed... my husband did not have a lamp on his side and there was no lamp on the desk... some corners were a little dark and it was a bit had to see. This was not a big deal. We just moved our bags to where we could see what we were doing. The staff was friendly and helpful."
