river views really rock!
friendly staff city center
the hotel is smack dab in the city center near the riverbank. the staff got parking sorted for my car easy peasy, i dig that. it was a proper treat staying there.
the decor feels old, and the room had a musty smell. the shower made water splash all over the floor, ugh.
