Great location being right on the river! I stayed in a single bedroom and the bathroom was awful. The soaps didn’t work in the shower even though I asked to have it fixed. Really very basic amenities in a decent hotel and a great location.

The staff were lovely, the location is perfect. The room was a bit shabby, the breakfast whilst ample could be improved upon. Not bad at all but I was was expecting a little bit better considering the price.

Nice 3 star quality clean and well located hotel. Front desk help is good but takes a while and there is not a concierge for help. It would be good if top sheets were included in the bed makeup as the rooms tend to be on the warmer side and the large comforters are too much. Wash cloths are included by request only. Upon requesting a top sheet and wash cloths I was met with a friendly response and quick delivery. There are no refrigerators in the rooms.

The hotel is very pretty and well situated in town right on the river. Our rooms were as described however; the ventilation in the room was insufficient. We visited in July and even with the fan on, windows open, the room was very warm and stuffy. We ordered drinks at the bar and service was rather slow (even while the bar was not full of patrons). Service at the front desk and around the property were otherwise very friendly and helpful.
