Riverwalk Loft 1

If you are looking for something right in the middle of the excitement, book now! This is your place. Our lofts are right in the heart of Downtown. In walking distance to breweries, casinos, and shopping galore.Our building is directly in front of the Mississippi River entrance. Walk around the corner either to get an ice cream for a late night snack. Beds are super comfortable but downtown isn’t the quiet part of town. The train runs periodically. You will have the typical night life noise.
