River Hotel

Liked the great room, the fact that it was right on the river and it had a hot tub.(it was way too windy to use and was not sure where to get towels for it) There was a coffee bar in the dining room with cookies. . Very clean. They had votive candles lit lining the hallway where our room was. Nice touch with very nice scent. Parking was very handy.

No coffee with hot pot in your room. The room was very simple...absolutely no frills. Beds too soft as were the pillows. Two Asian sisters own? Or run the place. One speaks little English. The older sister showed us our room, explaining to us the window was open to bring in fresh air. Not sure if she was being truthful. Window was open because (as we discovered) the room is HOT!! We could not find the thermostat and we looked! Could not keep the window open because it was storming! Plus, no soap in the dispenser in the shower. Our biggest problem: we wanted something light to eat that evening. There were men eating in the dining room with what looked like a buffet. My husband asked the younger sister(who spoke little English) about the buffet. She said,’ yes, eat. Get what you want. No problem’ . As we were eating, we realized the men in the dining hall were there for a fishing tournament and the buffet was specifically for them which they paid for. We felt bad. We ate very little. The older sister came in and told us she would have to charge us. I understood. However, the next day she charged us $80!! The more I thought about it the madder I got. The fishermen had paid for that buffet for so many men....if anything they could have requested $$ from us. I don’t believe the two women lost any $$ over it. I believe they made a nice chunk of change on us. The breakfast was not included, but I paid on line $19 for each of us for breakfast when I made the reservation. It’s not worth it. The bacon was half cooked and cold. My husbands eggs were cold, mine barely lukewarm. There were some cold pastries, cheese, cold baked beans right out of the can. Was not impressed.
