Location is great next to the river with a paved path to run or bike (bike rentals avail). The hotel is large so the pool gets busy but luckily there are two. We were concerned breakfast (which included an omelet station) would be a nightmare with that many guests but it was well ran and we got in and out without a wait. Definitely would stay here again if in the area.

Room 340 was between the pool/live music on one side and the ice machine on the other. The only way to drown out all the noise was to turn the tv up loud. Otherwise, nice room, nice staff, could've done with less noise.

Being by the river was nice but the bouncy house Saturday morning next to my room would have been good information. I was too far away from the main area of the hotel to access the food facilities without driving.
