Best location
We love this motel. It great for a one night getaway. The rooms are updated, beds are comfortable and there is a lite breakfast in the lobby. Sits on the river, beautiful views, two block walk to restaurants, shops and bars.

Great stay

Stay up in the mountains
Wow. What a trip! This hotel was well worth the price. Very comfortable and simply easy to get to. I could come back here every year. The bathroom is a little tight, the TV remote control was old and worn, and the toilet push buttons have seen better days. Updated as the toilet was, the life in the flush buttons was fading fast. Overall, our room was very above average.

Anniversary Stay.
Our room had an amazing view of the hillside and the river. During the winter it does take approx. 15mins for the hot shower water to heat up. Most or all shops and diners were within walking distance. Was an amazing stay for our Anniversary.

2/10 Poor

Overpriced and Old
Hotel is older, dirty and overpriced for the condition and facilities provided. The pictures online are deceiving, there is no kitchen in the rooms.
