I had a lovely stay at Hotel Contessa, which was not only clean but also provided a comfortable environment. The location is fantastic, as it's right on the Riverwalk, making it easy to access nearby attractions. The service was decent, but I felt the pricing was on the higher side without offering enough amenities to justify it. Overall, it's a good option, especially if you're looking for a pet-friendly place near local attractions.
