Guest Ratings & Reviews
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms offered a beautiful view over the water and a buffet-style breakfast, which was a plus. However, the service left a lot to be desired with unhelpful communication and lack of customer care. The location, right on the river near nightlife, was a great feature, but the high parking fees were a downside. Dining options were not specified. Overall, an average stay with some highlights and disappointments.
My stay at the hotel was an overall pleasant experience. The rooms provided a lovely buffet-style breakfast with a view over the water, but the service was lacking in terms of communication and customer care. The location was superb, offering easy access to nightlife and restaurants, and the dining experience was satisfactory. The facilities were adequate, but there were some drawbacks to consider.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, right on the river near all the nightlife and in a centralized area with many sights to see. The staff was friendly and accommodating, but communication was a bit lacking. The rooms offered a beautiful view over the water and the buffet-style breakfast was a great start to my day.
