The wonderful woman who checked us in Tuesday evening was very courteous and polite. The room was super clean
The beds were comfortable with extra pillows. The walk-in shower was the topper!!!! Absolutely 💯 love! The hotel provided easy access to the bridge and all restaurants by the river. We will definitely be back!!!
Nice room, somewhat dated but in good condition. Good breakfast included, more than a continental. Very friendly staff.

This was a wonderful stay! The staff was over the top friendly on top of the hotel being EXTREMELY clean and well taken care of. My family felt welcome and safe and will definitely return.
Very nice for price and staff was extra nice and helpful in every way I had no car and they guided me and were overly nice and I was shocked that coffee was as good as it was
Have stayed at this hotel several times now. Checkin and out was smooth and easy, room was clean and we had no issues. Kristina at the front desk was a star as always. The only downside is the breakfast, its not complimentary and not close to be worth $10.95 they charge for it. Limited options and we went at 7 am when it says open at 6:30 and it wasnt completly set up and was luke warm at best for what was there.
