Dated hotel
This hotel is dated and our room was dark with no view of anything. I’d rather stay away from the river and have a nicer room.

We had a very large corner room on the river that was super quiet and very pleasant. The bed was amazing and we were able to walk all around the area for dining options and shopping. We enjoyed stating here and would again. We were there January 8 2025.
