Next time we will request a better room...there are beautiful rooms,but we thought we were just getting a walk in shower,not an ADA room, which really did not suit our needs. Also looking forward to a beautiful evening on the rooftop bar,but no amenties there..had to carry your own food and beverage if you went up there.

Love this hotel. Have stayed here many times over the past 3 years. Hotel location is gorgeous! Very clean comfy rooms. Restaurant has changed and has very few food choices at this time but breakfast remains delicious. One point of irritation, we needed to wash some clothes - nice clean machines, but the hotel had NO quarters. It’s a very small town so options are limited. Figured it out but…inconvenient Otherwise love this hotel

Nice hotel, very loud guests this weekend
Hotel is nice and clean but so many people in the halls were so loud super late at night. Then first thing this morning young kids were running up and down the halls. Not the hotels fault but also feel they could have policed it better.

This hotel is fantastic! It’s got a great feel and it’s new and clean. Staff is wonderful and very accommodating. Being right on the river, it has an amazing view and the roof top bar area is a great bonus. Friday night summer concert was a blast! The town is quaint and the people are very nice.

As triathletes with bikes I appreciated the bike workroom, as well as the space under the beds to store the bike bags. The view along the river was nice. Shower could have been bigger. There was nowhere to hang bath towels. This would be a nice addition so we wouldn't have to replace them daily.
