What was most unique about our stay was when we unlocked the door to our room (204) and entered it smelled like Tutankamens Grandmothers house, cigarettes and moth balls and cabbage soup left to ferment in a closed, unventilated hot room for 3,300 years give or take a few. Even the air conditioning could not suck up the stench of grandmother's house. The place is overall nice our room not so much.

Much better than picture suggests!
Lovely hotel. We asked for a room away from traffic noise and were given a 4th floor room at rear of hotel. Not that noise would have been a problem as the hotel does not front onto a busy road as we thought it did. Breakfast was very good, service was excellent, short walk to river, short drive to beach, impressive individual styling on landing of each floor, comfy room with very firm mattress although softer pillows would have been better. Very good value.
Pleasant pool

From the minute we walked into the hotel we felt welcomed. The front desk staff were so friendly and helpful. Our room was spotless and the bed was very comfortable. The hotel is an easy walk from the train station, close to the riverfront, shopping and numerous restaurants. Overall 10/10. Great value for the price. Would definitely recommend.

I booked this hotel last minute so I appreciated the accommodation. The pool is very refreshing and the room was very clean, comfortable and quiet. The front desk staff was helpful and friendly. The breakfast the following morning was great too! Lots of fresh food and all very tasty and satisfying. The property is located close to anything you could want… from shopping and dining options to public transportation. Highly recommend!

Great hotel with a central location. I had a misunderstanding about a fee. However, Fransica at the front desk was very professional in explaining how it was overlooked on my part. Great staff and worth returning

The staff is the secret sauce, friendly and helpful. We were awed with one of the front desk clerks who also served as bartender - he made a nice cocktail, and there he was in the morning helping with breakfast.

I loved the property. Very clean well maintained. Stayed 4 nights and enjoyed. Unfortunately my last night my neighbors were very loud. I banged on the wall which helped.. I know the property has no way to control. Patricia at the front desk was very welcoming!!
