The property is nice with a beautiful view of the river, but we likely won’t come back. Every time we left or entered, we had to pass through cigarette smoke, including from employees. There’s a “no smoking facility” sign literally right beside the exit, but someone has placed an ashtray there, so everyone stands there to smoke. It’s not family friendly at all.

Buffet breakfast is horrible. Scrambled eggs are pale, no bacon, cold sausage a 2 wrinkley oranges. We paid $20 for a cook to order breakfast and the hotel changed its breakfast to buffet style. I couldn’t eat this morning meal and went to a local restaurant for breakfast every morning.
