Our room had a large HVAC unit sitting just outside our window which made our sleep experience less than stellar. Any other room and I would give them 5 stars.

Stayed here for my wedding. Elevator was broken but staff helped with our bags to the top floor and they were very friendly and helpful. Clean hotel room, great free breakfast with a cool pancake machine. I would stay here again. Very close to walk anywhere you would like for food drinks etc. if you’re here on a Saturday perfect spot to stay and go to the Troy’s farmers market.

This hotel is right by a river! Great Barbecue restaurant right across the street so it smells amazing! Streets are busy and kind of confusing. I was in a handicapped room on first floor and it was very spacious!! Very clean. Dining area for breakfast was beautiful.
