Wonderful River View Room!

The breakfast buffet had a great selection. The hotel has several pools available. The rooms were clean and well-kept . I really liked the daily housekeeping service. The view from the balcony was AMAZING!!!
The gym area felt a little cramped. I think there could be some improvements made to the layout to maximize the space better.
