I found the staff to be friendly and helpful. The room was very comfortable and I appreciated being able to park in front of my room so that transferred luggage was easy. I had a room with a small and separate living room with a desk which I used a lot.

Stay anywhere but here!!!
Room was extremely dated and dirty. Smelled terrible. Mold everywhere in bathroom. Hole in the ceiling between bathroom and main room...you could actually see bathroom light thru hole.Walls peeling in entire room. Little spiders everywhere. The bed was comfortable and linens appeared to be only clean thing in room. We seriously considered sleeping in car. Really wish we had taken pictures but we stayed in room as little as possible. The motel is on the river so it was a peaceful location and the view from the balcony was the only nice thing about the room.

The pictures of the room and the hotel outside that you see in the website, have nothing to do with the real hotel. Not going there again

There was no communication between customers and workers unless we asked a question. We had a reservation for 3 nights and only had enough towels and wash cloths for 1 night so we had to get the extra ourselves at the desk or was told to get them from the maid who could not speak English. There were no smiling faces anywhere in the hotel. However the room was clean and comfortable. It did not have the pool open or was not doing continental breakfast anymore. This is a beautiful spot at the river it is a shame the owners are letting it go and not keeping up the outside of the building. This could be a booming business in this area if it had good management.

It was a really nice stay, the view from the balcony was beautiful. The only issue which was minor was the tv was a bit glitchy and not many channels.
