    The outdoor space was beautiful, right on the river. Very near to the little town and easy to walk to, even at night. I would stay here again.

    Bar and seating around were nice. The "Secret" spot was hard to find. Public Bathroom were clean. Pool could have been cleaner but overall was nice. Good ambiance
