Fun to be right along the Ohio River, close to river walk and historic buildings. Room wasn't as nice as we expected, clean but bathroom was small and cramped. Breakfast was pretty limited.

Great place with a great porch to sit on and watch the river. Very clean and nicely landscaped. After being in the neat town for a few days i would still pick this hotel over the other options just for the view and porch and rocking chairs. The roll up window coverings are horrible though, they need some nice wood blinds, curtains or some other option.

This beautiful, older-style property offers stunning views of the river and a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. Located near walking trails and a park, it’s also just minutes from town, giving you easy access to everything this quaint area has to offer. We especially enjoyed spending the evening at the on-site bar and relaxing on the multi-level patio while taking in the scenic surroundings. Tucked away on a quiet dead-end road, there’s no through traffic—just peace and quiet. Check-in was a breeze, thanks to Sam, who was incredibly friendly, funny, and knowledgeable. As a local, she shared some great recommendations for places to visit during our stay. The room was simple and no-frills, but had everything we needed for a comfortable night’s rest—including a super comfy king-size memory foam bed and a clean shower. Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for charm, tranquility, and local hospitality!

This property was fabulous. Amazing deck, rooms were clean and updated. Amenities (bar, breakfast, etc) were great. The only complaint that I have is that there doesn't seem to be staff onsite overnight as we were woken up at 2:30am by people screaming and yelling in an obvious fight right outside our door and no staff to be found and the front desk lobby was locked. Still giving 5 stars because the fight was not their fault.
