Pros. Nothing about this experience felt like a hotel.

Cons. It felt like a motel was taken over by aliens that were doing a horrible job of pretending to continue running the hotel.

Pros. Nothing.

Cons. There was no hot water, cable picture on TV was fuzzy, room had strange smell, thin sheet instead of curtains covering bathroom window, heat would not work adequately, no hotel thick comforter instead thin 20.00 comforter like the ones Amazon sell not even down filled. Customer service terrible. Checked in early 7:30 was told room would be ready at 2:00 came back at 3:00 still had to wait until 4:15 just for my room only. The other couple we traveled with did not even have 1 roll of toilet paper in their room!! our iron wasnt working had to get another and some wall outlets would not work had to use cell cause clock was on the desk with no outlet by the bed.

Cons. Poor customer service. Did not provide the service we requested and paid for. We paid for a roll away bed and they did not have one at first, but then said they did but it took over an hour late at night to get it. Very disappointing.

6.8Okay
Anonymous, Mar 2018

Pros. I liked the location (river front). Staff very friendly.

Cons. I did not like the fact that shower water temp was warm (at best). I had to wait for it to get to a temp that I could basically spray myself off. I am not sure what it would take to fix, but if it wasn’t for that, I would have given a much better review. I will not be staying here again just for that reason alone.

6.5Okay

Pros. The views and proximity to the water

Cons. Restaurant was closed for the entire stay, room was not ready at time stated, and cable channels were fuzzy. My stay was ok other than these things.

Pros. Room was clean

Cons. I reserved a riverfront room and I received a room on the parking lot. Service at desk was painfully slow to check in.

7.4Good

Pros. Neat historical building, nice view and location on the riverwalk.

Cons. Staff was a little quiet, tried answering when asked but almost had to draw things out of them. Felt like I was imposing a little bit.
