Busy Part Of Town But Nice

Nice hotel, room was clean, staff was friendly, little pricey, parking for larger vehicles and actually getting to the back parking (you have to take a narrow back alley)was a little tricky at times. Grandkids loved the arcade with photo booth, would probably stay again but with a smaller vehicle.

Great 3 night getaway!

Older hotel, but very clean and the staff was always friendly! The pool and arcades were great for the kids! It was a short walk to the river and close to great places to eat! We will stay here again!

Close to lots of food options and transit. The underground parking was convenient especially on hot days. Little cafe was cute and staff were very nice. Food was the right price. Wish it was open a bit later. Beds very comfy and clean.
