Quick check in. Room was clean. Little smaller than modern rooms. I thought I had a 2 queen room but bed were more of a double size. Good well lit parking. Better than average breakfast for this class of hotel. Waffles, mini waffles, sausage patties, and the normal other stuff. Check in staff was good. Morning staff super friendly. Lady in breakfast area made made everyone welcome with a personal “good morning”. Only thing wrong was age of room size. Good value.

Nice hotel but needs some sprucing up. Seems like it gets hard use during the summer. I paid for a riverfront view and the hotel is adjacent to the river but all you really see is the drawbridge and its vehicle ramps. Very friendly staff, eapecially the breakfast atteattendant..
