Stayed here with my family. Had a nice view of the river. The large hot tub was closed, and the pool was open, however, very musky. TV was broken in the room, but we were told that when we checked in and they gave us vouchers for breakfast and drinks at night

Stay at end of March 2025

This is listed as a 4 star property, but it was built in the '60s and despite attempts to renovate the facility looks/feels tired. The doorways are narrow, there are multiple levels to get from point A to Point B. I can't imagine it ever being handicapped accessible. Wallpaper is patched, modern bath is tiny and sink splashes everywhere. Staff was very friendly, the grounds are obviously beautiful in season. But at best, this is a 3 star accommodation.
