We had a great experience at River Street Inn. We loved the location and points of interest were easily walkable. Also lots of dining and shopping options along River Street. Hotel and room were very clean. It is a historic building and they have kept it up very well. The daily manager's reception was an added plus - complimentary drinks and appetizers! Coffee, popcorn and candy also available in the lobby for guests. Would definitely stay here again.

The room was nice and clean. We’ve stayed at this hotel before and loved it. The only downside we had was the room we were in was right under the check in desk and lobby entrance! Also this room was right beside the staircase that goes to the next floor. We heard footsteps the entire night. It was hard to rest.

Good location.

Great location on the waterfront. Even though the rooms were updated, there were big stains on the carpet and the room had a musty smell like old laundry.
