We got such a good deal on this hotel, it was a little scary. We were afraid it may be “not so nice”. To our surprise, it was great! Very quaint, within walking distance of town, very cool river view deck. The staff was outstanding- friendly and professional. We definitely found an amazing deal via Expedia. We would definitely come back again.
