The concierge at the front desk did a great job keeping the breakfast room, clean and keeping it stocked with breakfast food, and coffee, the pool area was clean and dry, our rooms were clean. The place was full, but there was not any noise in the hallway or in neighboring rooms!

The pool facilities were the cleanest we’ve ever seen. The ultra-inflammatory Fox “Not News” Channel was on in the breakfast area. A restful meal while listening to the Weather Channel or a non-political station would be much appreciated. Half of Americans are not Trumpers!

The hotel was clean and the staff friendly. The place was not soundproof and we heard noise from people in the halls, room next to ours and even people outside smoking. There was no fan in the bathroom, which may have helped give us some “white noise” between the door and our bed. The fan in room would only run if air conditioning was running, fan would not stay on continually, which also would have helped with noise control.

Pros: Very clean, well maintained. Great bedding and pillows. Great location right off the highway. Next to a liquor store and visitors center. Very close to 2 restaurants. Lovely pool area. Staff was eager to please. Cons: the description says this is a hotel with a promenade and a winery. Both totally untrue. There is a winery about 5 miles away. The desk clerk tried to explain where the promenade along the river was located but it certainly was not near this hotel. The mattress was uncomfortable and lumpy. Breakfast was truly minimal. This is a better than average place to stay. Just don’t expect a promenade, a winery or an amazing breakfast.

Great night of rest but the free breakfast left a lot to be desired. They advertised 6am to 9am but i went to it at 630am, very little food was available. I managed tonget juice and coffee but there were only 2 yogurts in the frig and bowls of instant oatmeal available. No bread, no waffles, no fresh fruit and no pastries. Somebody dropped the ball.
