Best Western Plus River Escape Inn & Suites

8/10 Good
"A nice property in a good position. It was clean and staff helpful. It has aged though and the carpet, small bathroom, decor and unusual smells upon entering the room felt dated. The gym was underwhelming with some of the equipment not working. The breakfast bar needed a much broader selection of food and additional staff to support the one lady working there. Maintenance work on the property seemed to a good standard in general and was noticeable, it just needs a facelift to shine."
