A fun getaway! Not very quiet so if that’s a priority then pick a different place to stay. Staff was great and grounds were well kept and clean. Wonderful music outside on the patio, definitely would stay again.

Fun to be right along the Ohio River, close to river walk and historic buildings. Room wasn't as nice as we expected, clean but bathroom was small and cramped. Breakfast was pretty limited.

Great place with a great porch to sit on and watch the river. Very clean and nicely landscaped. After being in the neat town for a few days i would still pick this hotel over the other options just for the view and porch and rocking chairs. The roll up window coverings are horrible though, they need some nice wood blinds, curtains or some other option.
