The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, we didn’t do the breakfast as we thought it was a bit pricey. The bathroom was very clean and had lovely toiletries provided. I would definitely stay here again.

This hotel would be difficult to navigate if you require mobility assistance. Stairs everywhere. No AC. I brought Small fan. Do not know if fans are available for the room. Rooms were clean. No washcloths. Requested extra hand towel for washing. The pub had live music the night we were there. Cute downtown area. Right in the middle. The view of the water was beautiful. Self parking in paid city parking. Does have an indoor pool and workout room.

Great location. Great staff. Just a note as I travelled with my 80yr old mom, she had problems with stairs but as a very old building with additions I thought it was great. And right on the river.
