Good value. Nice views. Friendly staff.

Easy check-in. Friendly front desk staff. Rooms are dated, but clean and spacious. Mattress was comfortable, but the pillows weren't great. Bathroom is clean but dated and the shower was barely a trickle. The balcony with the river view was great. Having a coffee maker with no coffee or filters is just cruel!

Didn’t feel safe

The door knob to enter the room was flimsy, dead bolt didn’t exist. It was an empty hole. I did not feel safe the 2 nights I stayed. You could see daylight under the door. Although great location
