Upon entering my room I found the luggage rack was broken. I called the front desk to ask for a working luggage rack. I was asked to come down and get one. I said I donthink you understand what i needed. I left for the evening and the night shift had someone replace it.

I enjoyed being on the river. The elevator needed a deep cleaning as it appeared to have dirt issues. The staff were helpful and friendly.

Well, I didn’t get to stay here because YOUR company overbooked it! I showed up after driving for 9 hours and they were over sold and I didn’t get a room. I had to sleep in my car.
