Overall a good experience. Being an older property it was well maintained and was as expected. The breakfast was good and had a nice variety. Enjoyed how close it was to the trolley stop and downtown without being in the middle of the main strip. The river was very nice in the morning and evening to enjoy from the balcony and fire pit area.
