    Good standard hotel. An entire wall (along the beds) didn't have power (?). The outlets and lamps on that half didnt work, and neither did the HVAC system. Due to the stay being one night and a late arrival we didn't bring this up during our visit. One drawer in our room had a bag of empty cans and trash. Besides this the room was pretty clean and the staff were nice.

    Room was clean. Bed had a soft mattress little support. Location was close to river and many great Italian restaurants but a little expensive. Parking not included but valet available for a reasonable fee.
