Location is fantastic. Right in the water and next to a clean, beautiful, safe, quiet park. Note it is near airport so planes go by but they didn’t bother us in the room. Hotel is older but our room was newly redone and clean.

Rooms Nicely Renovated

I stayed here last year and was pleasantly surprised to find the rooms renovated, with very good quality work and fixtures. Road access is excellent and great location along the river and next to a park. I'll definitely be staying here on my next visit to the area.

There is lots of parking in front of hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was nice and served the purpose we needed. You definitely hear some sounds outside the room but that is to be expected for any motel type of setup. It wasn't an issue for us. Overall, I would recommend this hotel!
