Guests overwhelmingly praised the hotel's prime location, especially its proximity to the Riverwalk and other attractions. Many found the staff to be friendly and helpful, contributing positively to their stay.

Lanny, Feb 2023
Our stay started out rough, but then turned around. Prior to our stay we had called to inform the hotel, we would be checking in around 2am due to our late flight(red eye). Hotel staff told us they’d make a note and late check in would be no problem. Day of our flight was delayed, also we happened to receive a call from the hotel. The person on the phone asked about our check in; and I told her we...

Pros (+) Fantastic service, and well-appointed all-suite hotel. The hotel exceeded expectations, and was truly a great value.
Cons (-) An included breakfast would have been great, but I knew this was not included when I booked, so it doesn't diminish my opinion whatsoever.

Pros (+) The room was considerably larger than I expected, with a separate sitting area. Everything was clean, and in good condition. The regular price was fairly expensive, but I managed to get a reasonable rate through Expedia.

Pros (+) Made a special stop at the river walk on our five day trek from Pittsburgh to puerto Vallarta Mexico. Stopped to enjoy the beautiful view and exeperience the river walk. The resort was absolutely gorgeous. Unique with design, very friendly conceierge, and beautiful room layout.
Cons (-) Our one and only critique, and rather silly at that, after pulling in with our vehicle and stopping at the front valet, the attendant seemed almost shocked when we said, yes we would like you to park the car, and replied with an almost doubtful "are you sure? Wouldn't you like to hear the prices?" Though I'm sure he was just trying to do his job and avoid later frustration, the tone in which he as...
