I would book again. Christmas lights lit up the street across from River balcony adding to the spirit. We had a fireplace in the room which made it a lovely winter addition. The hot tub was a bust - luke warm - but everything else was great. The people were very nice. I will book again.

Hotel was very clean and updated. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Enjoyed my spacious room with a balcony looking over the river. However, hotel is at the very end of strip so it's a bit of a walk to everywhere. But area was quiet and safe overall.
