    river view
    cozy room
    late check-in
    access issues

    For anyone thinking about this

    The river view from my room was breathtaking, especially at sunset. The room was cozy and well-equipped with soft bedding and a spacious bathroom. Breakfast options were abundant, featuring fluffy omelettes and waffles. Only downside was the late check-in, which made access a bit tricky. Still, overall great vibes!

    indoor pool
    impressive breakfast
    spacious room
    pricey parking
    limited outdoor space

    The indoor pool was a hit with the kids, keeping them entertained after a busy day exploring downtown. The breakfast options were impressive, with tasty choices sure to satisfy every family member. We also enjoyed the spacious queen room with a beautiful view of the river. However, parking was a bit pricey, which added to our overall expenses during the stay.

    comfortable king room
    delicious breakfast
    great location
    loud kids
    pricey parking

    We loved the comfy king room and enjoyed our time at Wells Fargo Arena and the Science Center. The breakfast was delicious, and the location was super convenient for everything. Just a heads up, parking is $15 a night, which can add up.

    On our second night, it got a bit loud with groups of kids talking in the hall late at night, which disrupted our sleep.

    My stay exceeded expectations for a couple of nights, especially in the spacious queen room. The view of the river at sunset was fine and the breakfast selection was excellent with options like fluffy omelettes and waffles. The location also made it easy to explore downtown and nearby restaurants.

    shower pressure was a bit weak

    spacious room
    impressive breakfast
    inconvenient check-in
    lack of safety measures
    difficult access

    The king studio with balcony was spacious, offering a comfortable stay with an amazing view at sunset. Breakfast was impressive, featuring fluffy omelettes and a waffle station. On the downside, check-in was delayed until after 10 PM, and access to the hotel from the parking garage was inconvenient without keys.

    The location was awesome for exploring the city! 😍 Just a little tricky to find the entrance at first. The bed was super comfy and breakfast had a nice variety. Would definitely stay again!

    clean rooms
    good breakfast
    unfair parking

    Clean rooms with great views of the river. Parking is an extra $15, which feels unfair. Breakfast options include mini waffles and sausages. Not a fan of the check-in process. it took way too long.

    indoor pool
    wi-fi issue
    bathroom light malfunction

    The indoor pool was perfect for relaxation.

    I was really disappointed with my stay this time. The Wi-Fi connection was down for most of my visit, which made it difficult to coordinate my plans. Additionally, the bathroom light stopped working and wasn't fixed during my stay. I expected more attention to maintenance issues.
