Front desk was very helpful! Fresh lemon/lime ice water and cookies was a nice treat after checking in. They were conveniently located near elevators on our way to the room. Grounds and river views are gorgeous and peaceful. Paved walking trail along the river proved to be a relaxing stroll after our evening meal.
