We stayed here while visiting the falls. Close enough to see the main attraction and save some money. Staff was kind, helpful and friendly. We do wish there were more elevator options to bring luggage up the stairs. Pool was nice but a bit outdated.

Front desk people were very friendly and helpful! Pool looked lovely - we didn't have enough time to enjoy. Saturday evening bartenders were friendly! Breakfast was available. No complaints for us. We'd stay here again if we are ever back in the area.

Lovely hotel

When arriving I was disappointed by the outside look of the hotel but was greatly surprised by how lovely and clean the inside was! Looks like it was renovated inside. Great staff, clean , two big pools Definitely will be returning in the future!! Sad there wasn’t a waffle machine as it was in there pictures
