We like the easy undercover and convenient parking. Friendly check-in and lift access to the higher floors. Rooms are modern and well fitted for a comfortable stay. Upper level riverside rooms are especially nice to sit out on the balcony and soak up the views over a drink of choice.

We stayed in the waterside king suite. A beautifully furnished suite with dual balconies boasting amazing waterfront views. Easy onsite parking and easy walking distance to an array of restaurants. Definitely worth a stay.
