Clean, well set up. Nice pool overlooking the river. Lovely sitting area overlooking the river also. Had a wonderful time. The pillows were really good also. Our rooms were very nice and comfortable. Hotel is also attached to the Ameristar casino so you dont have to leave the hotel to play games or have dinner. Would definitely go back!
