I’m not usually one to mention dated but this hotel is nice but dated. we booked a king and got a queen bed, the room was on the lower floor as requested. it smelled very musty!!! the carpet needs to be removed. my husband and i had to take allergy meds. the staff were great and the restaurant was awesome but a bit pricey. the pool is small and the area needs to be updated, paint and leveling of the brick around the pool.

Well 300$ a night for a musty outdated room in what looks like such a quaint hotel on the outside was not pleasant. The entire property needs to be renovated-at least tear out all the carpets!!! Dinner was very good and the staff was pleasant and helpful. Other than that it would be hard to recommend anyone staying there.

Property is old and needs updating. Also it’s not very clean. In addition, there is no elevator, so if you are on the higher floors, you have to carry your luggage up.

Based on the picture, I thought there would be a walk way along the water but there wasn’t. Just a foul smelling septic smell along the water. I asked the server if the beets in the salad were fresh or from a jar, she said fresh. I think she meant fresh from the jar. There was a dirty spoon in the hallway and our balcony could have used a good paint over. The pool was fine and so was the receptionist as was the proximity to the airport but otherwise, I don’t recommend this place.

This lovely property is charming with big luxurious rooms. The staff were wonderful. Parking is free and convenient. The restaurant is beautiful. Its nice to be able to walk overlooking the river. Tennis courts, pool, etc. were nice. We appreciated being so close to the airport but in a lovely setting.
