10/10 Excellent
"The property is beautiful! The rooms are very Modern. All rooms face the river which gives a nice view! I highly recommend this hotel. The river beach is that great that I thought it was an ocean beach. My only observations are that the front desk is not 24 hours so you better check in before they close or make sure you reach out to them ahead so they can give you instructions how to check in after they close and that the parking lot is not too big and you might find difficulty parking if you arrive late at night."
