    Newly refurbished rims was like stay in a brand new hotel. Would much rather stay here than the casino and pay 3 to 4 times the amount of money. The quality/price ratio is outstanding. Bonus is sitting on the balcony and listening to the river....

    The location was quiet and by the river. It was a nice area close to food and shopping. The balcony was nice to watch the geese and ducks.
