The staff at the Embankment are amazing, friendly and helpful! They made my stay a great experience and would gladly stay with them again. They were so understanding of our emergency, and allowed us a late check out with no hassle. And amazing staff, thank you! The property was extremely well maintained and clean, very cozy and comfortable room. The property has lots of amazing touches that make it comfortable and welcoming. I would definitely recommend a stay.
