I paid a premium for a 3 night stay in a room with a balcony to be able to keep curtains open and enjoy the view. I ended up being placed in the basement of the hotel with a "patio" that had a public walkway right outside so opening the curtains was out of the question. When using the patio the view is through a chain link fence. In addition the room itself was directly under the lounge so we were treated to constant banging and footsteps. Room was also directly across from their laundry service so we got a nose full of strong detergent that would cause me to go into a sneezing fit and a hallway full of cleaning staff! No stopper in the sink and adjoining room had thin doors that allowed us to hear clearly every word spoken next door. Way overpriced for what I was given!!!

1-hope you like really small toilets 2-soap/shampoo dispenser didn’t really work 3-balcony light made it impossible to see any of the river scenery at night due to glare 4-at checkin at 2:40 we were told the room wasn’t ready and they’d text us by 4:00. They never did. 5-had to park across street (100 yds) 6-numerous questions at checkin took way to long 7-was told room was on 2nd floor-waited by evevator anticipating going up one floor and when got on, floors were labeled 1,LL,3,4,5. 8-no coffee in lobby!

Perfect hotel location in Wisconsin dells. Close to downtown action but not too close. River walk is beautiful right beside hotel. Hotel restaurant was also very good. And for two retired people the 2 hour upper dells boat tour was wonderful.

The views from our river view room were gorgeous. The hotel has been updated but definitely still needs some TLC in other areas. Our room did not have a deadbolt and the door didnt close properly unless it was pushed or pulled shut. Bathroom was tiny but beds and pillows were very comfortable! Hot tub temperature was good. Parking on the river side of the street is very limited. Lot across the street is poorly lit and traffic flies by as you try to safely cross the street.
