Staff went above and beyond / welcoming events
Cons:
Unfriendly breakfast attendant reported multiple times

Categories

Cleanliness
9.2
Multiple reviewers praised how clean the property and rooms were; however one stay reported a dirty room and lack of dusting, so overall cleanliness is very good but not perfect.
Service
9.3
Front desk staff repeatedly called out by name (Liz, Rebecca) as friendly, helpful and professional; staff went above and beyond for guests. Some negative notes about an unfriendly breakfast attendant slightly reduce the score.
Location
8.7
Excellent river views and convenient location praised by many, but several guests reported disruptive train noise from the tracks across the street, creating a mixed location experience.
Room Quality
8.3
Rooms praised for balconies, spaciousness and privacy (bedroom door), but some guests experienced outdated rooms, incorrect views, a broken toilet and an uncomfortably hard bed—mixed room quality overall.
Amenities
8.6
Strong complimentary breakfast offering and balcony views are positives; however a weak hot tub (low jet pressure) and issues like unrefilled shower dispensers indicate some upkeep/amenity shortfalls.
Value for Money
8.9
Many guests found the stay worthwhile for the location, service and breakfast. A few noted the property felt slightly overpriced for outdated rooms or missing conveniences (no USB ports), producing a generally good but not perfect value rating.
Food and Beverage
9.2
Breakfast was repeatedly described as good, plentiful and a highlight (bacon, eggs, waffles, gravy options); isolated complaints about lacking biscuits & gravy or an unfriendly breakfast worker temper an otherwise strong food offering.
Overall Experience
9.8
Overall sentiment is highly positive: many guests described the stay as great, relaxing, and would return, citing excellent staff and views. A small number of significant negatives (noise, isolated room problems) do not dominate the overall impression.
* This sentiment is summarized by AI based on user reviews.
