Ehh.. was hoping for more.
Decided to stay at this place due to recent good reviews and for the location. However our stay was not as accommodating as I had wished. The service and friendliness of the staff was great. However, the room was outdated and could use some deep cleaning. There was “stuff” stuck onto the bathroom walls & doors. The corners of the baseboards was nasty- just giving it a ick feeling. Our room was not the cleanest- there was hair on the bathroom floor when we arrived. My one and half year old child feet/socks were filthy after walking across the floors. All made me uneasy that it was a well cleaned place. I did see one roach during our stay. I had to put on my big girl attitude and deal with it but likely will not stay here again.

It's a great location right on the river and very close to downtown but it could stand some upgrading. I will stay there again but next time I'll get a cabin. There was too many people outside our room talking way too loud to late at night.
