Very nice place, clean, great view of the river. The breakfast was disappointing the eggs were powdered and no bacon and the sausage was gray…I would still stay there again. Oh and we tried to eat at the restaurant for dinner but they were very short staffed so we went somewhere else.

8/10 Very good

Staff were polite. It was a very nice room, but the shower was small and the tiles on the balcony were loose. The breakfast was basic I wish there was a non dairy option for the yogurt bar. The muffins were good along with the eggs and sausage. 8/10 overall would definitely stay again.
