Relaxing
Our room looked recently renovated. The property is undergoing some updates and improvements.
The property is right on the river, and they provide chairs, picnic benches, and open fire options to enjoy the river and its views. So peaceful and relaxing.

Nice Room, Amazing Bed, Great Location
Amazing hotel especially for the cost. Was very nice to hear and see the river just outside the rear windows. Unit was very clean with very high-end fixtures and appealing decor. And oh my god... the beds were amazing. This probably sounds like an exaggeration but I've stayed in many hotels and without a doubt, the bedding and mattress here were absolutely the most comfortable I've ever been in. Extremely fine pillowcases and sheets and a very nice semi-firm mattress but with a soft foam top. Bed was actually a 10/10, I really could not imagine anything nicer and more comfortable.

I called the property ahead of time, just to double check that bringing my pet was okay. I let her know I was in need of serenity. She put me in RM 21 on the 2nd floor with the Breathtaking View of the River. My entire stay was quiet, serene, beautiful and the employees were all very courteous. Thank you for such a great relaxed experience

Friendly Service, clean & comfortable rooms, beautiful location.
Had a few bbq grills so brought meat to grill, but needed to know to bring your own briquets & lighter fluid, No nearby stores to purchase.
