We enjoyed this property for the most part. I expected the restaurant in the hotel to feel more like a traditional restaurant, but it often felt empty, like no one was really there eating or serving. They also stop serving food at 10am, don’t start again until 4pm, and close at 10pm. It’s not a big deal since there’s a great spot to eat just 5 minutes away and plenty of options within a short drive. My only other complaint is that our room wasn’t cleaned some days, or if it was, it happened very late, one of my pet peeves. That said, the room itself was nice, and sitting by the river was absolutely wonderful.
