My Sweetie and I came down a week ago to celebrate our birthdays. We just wanted to be low key, lazy and enjoy each other. The location was quiet and so beautiful by the river. Everything was in walking distance and there were ample restaurants to choose from. Dope spot and will definitely return.

The bed was very firm and the pillows were flat and hard. Sounded like a lot of foot stomping all hours of day and night. Not sure if it was maintenance in back hallway or people in room above us. Love the location, room was clean and staff was exceptional.

Wonderful property and staff. We have came back twice and already planning our trip back for this Summer. Even when we had an issue like the batteries dying in the card reader they got us back in quickly and accommodated us. Highly recommend

The fireplace was awesome. It was cold so it made for a comfy night. Loved the loft room and bathroom. They had all you needed in the cabinets for coffee and cooking. Really a good place to stay when you just want to shop and relax. Your pretty much downtown. But far enough away to get the quiet side of it.

Best location

We love this motel. It great for a one night getaway. The rooms are updated, beds are comfortable and there is a lite breakfast in the lobby. Sits on the river, beautiful views, two block walk to restaurants, shops and bars.
