Crystal Cove Riverfront Resort offers a serene escape with lovely river views and an inviting atmosphere. The rooms are pleasant and well-kept, making it a comfortable stay. However, the dining options are limited, and the resort is undergoing renovations, which detracts a bit from the overall experience. Still, the value is commendable, especially with the reasonable rates.

Crystal Cove has great potential, being beautifully set on the river with a lovely view. The rooms are nice, but it seems the hotel is struggling with cleanliness and maintenance post-renovation. Staff is friendly, but some services appear to be lacking. Overall, it’s a decent stay for the price, but improvements are definitely needed.
