We stayed 2 nights in family room which ended up being 2 bed/2ba. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of space. Area around hotel is great, easy access to historic sites, dining, art galleries and shopping. We walked from Train station at about 9pm with kids and felt safe.The walk along the river is very nice.
