Pros:

The pool was warm, we had our grandbabies come visit us. So we were happy the pool area was warm. And not having to walk by everyone in our swimsuits to the pool area was a plus.
The cookies were amazing!

Cons:

A very pleasant hotel in a great riverfront location. Highly recommend.
Pros:

Our room was clean, the decor was fresh, and the location along the river was quite beautiful. We appreciated having an on-site restaurant and & bar, although there are several good restaurants nearby to choose from. Overall we had a great stay and would not hesitate to return next time we are in the area.

Cons:

No complaints.
