“The riverfront location is a definite draw, offering lovely views and easy access to the Riverwalk, shops, and dining. While the common areas and views impress, I found the rooms themselves could use a refresh, with some reporting dated bathrooms and a persistent humidity issue. The parking situation, particularly the cost and at times inconsistent valet service, warrants consideration.”
