Staff was terrific, the room was clean, bed and pillows were very comfortable. The decor in the hallways and the room was downright ugly. There’s no other way to put it. The hotel is at the far end of the Riverwalk, which meant we logged many steps during our stay.”, Which is something we enjoyed doing
