Congress Plaza Hotel
"While the property's history is captivating, our experience was not stellar. Almost no water pressure in the shower, empty shampoo container, one working elevator in the main bank (south), non-existent temperature control."

River Hotel
"I wish there were ice on the 2nd floor with the coffee and water station. Also would have liked some non-caffeinated tea options. Overall the stay was nice. A great central location for walking to many different places. It felt safe to be outside at night and the river view was nice."
