We booked a room with a river view and the view of the city was amazing. The room was comfortable and in great condition. The only downside was the thick pillows. Would definitely stay again.

Great stay for our family with little kids. Pool was big with room for everyone. Staff was helpful and welcoming. Parking was easy, not super expensive and they let us keep the car parked late on checkout day so we could go walk around the city. Short 10 minute walk to the T. Mall across the street shopping. We’ll definitely be staying again!
