Nice location on creek-- we hung out by the patio behind the hotel a couple times. Breakfast service was a bit below par-- the staff were challenged to keep up with the guests partaking in the breakfast. The food didn't have a lot of flavor.

Overall, the stay was fine. Front desk people were helpful. The bed was not very firm and I was uncomfortable. I suspect the mattress needed replacing since it’s sagged in the middle. The TV remote and channel selection was not coordinated. I inquired at the front desk about how to use the remote and was told that since they renovated a place the TV channels and the remote have not been able to function properly and just do the best I could.

Incredible service.

TV was not connected for some reason. Other than that it was great. WHOEVER the front desk employee was when we checked in needs a HUGE RAISE or potentially a management opportunities. Unless she already is, then that would make sense. She was incredible and made us feel at home at the first hello!
