The room, while a little small, was very clean, though signs of wear and tear were evident. Direct courtyard access was a major plus, allowing us to walk our dog and transport our luggage without disturbing other guests. The Hotels.com side was an issue - the risk of a change fee more pricey than the entire booking made it difficult to manage a necessary change in our itinerary.

A little quirky older property on a beautiful river. Good stop on our way to Pittsburgh. Nice Japanese restaurant, as well as breakfast and a casual restaurant and bar.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
There was no good place to walk my dog. They put us in a room down the hall from a very noisy nightclub and partiers slammed doors and talked in the hallway loudly until far in the night. I had requested a room with easy access to outside because of my dog. I didn’t get that at all. I had booked 2 queen beds. I got a king. This is the worst hotel I’ve been to in years. There was nothing positive about the experience. I couldn’t get out of there fast enough.
