"Visited for the St. Patrick's Day festivities. Hoyt's Tavern in the hotel had a tent set up outside with a dj and bar as well as a dj inside."
"We paid for a river view and upon check in, asked for the highest floor possible and they accommodated us."
"Great view of the river, parking option was in a secure underground garage, was walkable to majority of tourist activities, and had an exemplary bar on its first floor adjacent to the lobby."
