From the moment we arrived, the hotel staff were incredibly welcoming and got us checked in quickly. Parking is a bit tight, but once you’re parked, everything is within walking distance—no need to move your car. The pool area, which includes two hot tubs, was a lot of fun and perfect for relaxing. If you’re traveling with family, there’s plenty to do nearby. We had a riverside town view, and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. Breakfast was delicious and offered a great variety. The only downside was the long wait for the elevator at times, but overall, we had a wonderful stay. I highly recommend this hotel!

We liked the location however the condition of the property was under average. The rooms were small as well as the balcony. We could not enjoy the balcony for several reasons such as little the balcony area was, the chairs were dirty, there were cobwebs on the windows. The bathroom was very small, you had to move towards the sink area just to close the door. NO exhaust fan, toilet flushing was extremely slow. It made us stand there until to totally flush even when there eas just urine. Coming from another hotel Edgewater was a big let down. The breakfast crew did not talk to anyone. The food was the same both days and the must have been something going on cause it was very busy in the breakfast area every day.
