Disliked: Cleanliness
I stayed 20,21,and 22 July 2025. The bathroom was dirty ad the towels were not replaced. The morning of the 23rd the water was not working at all. I could not take a shower. I was promised from the front desk person I would receive a credit on my MC for the inconvenience. I did not received it. I grew up in Fall River and feel ashamed how it went so down hill. Will I receive the credit?

There is no elevator and the stairs can be onerous. Nobody offered to help lug the bags. The hotel is very nice and the balcony is a nice place to sit out. Hot tub is a nice touch.
