The room was a standard motel room, clean and tidy. Was a bit noisy early in the morning due to traffic and road works.

6/10 Good

We stayed in the older section, so the room was a bit dated, beds were comfortable, everything else was OK. Didn't like the parking, where it was every man for himself, no designated parking spots.

8/10 Very good

This stay at the Argosy we stayed in the newer section, everything was very modern, two double beds was good. Had a nice balcony overlooking the river, room was spacious, very clean and bathroom was heated. Our only gripe was the parking, having to park so far from the unit was inconvenient.
