Not obvious to find in this city.
The hotel was spotlessly clean. The facilities were great - we particularly enjoyed the covered decks and sitting rooms. The location was perfect, within walking distance to the riverfront and shopping in the historic downtown. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful.
Nothing to mention.
