I hate to give this place a five star review because I don’t want anybody else going there, but the building is beautiful. The food is fantastic. It’s so quiet and peaceful. Probably one of the top five hotels. I’ve stayed in and I’ve stayed all around the world in multiple different countries. Fantastic. Will be back.

Nice hotel near water but room is plain. Bathroom shower design can only get in one way so you can easily walk in with totally soaked by cold water or hot water. Also, the shower head is designed for very tall people. My husband is 6’1, and he can’t even adjust it.

The property is nice. It’s right on the river. However, what you look at is cranes and lots of construction equipment. The view from the hotel is not nice at all. The thing that really upset me was the prices at the hotel for food. A soft pretzel was $25. Come on. That is totally outrageous. The most ridiculous thing about the hotel was there was no dresser in the room. It was crazy. I had to put my clothes in the small drawer of the night stand. Good thing we only stayed for 3 nights and didn’t have a lot of extra clothes with us. The room was very nice and the bed was comfortable. We paid $995 for a 3 night stay. That is a lot of money and you would expect at least a place to put your clothes and free breakfast.
