Clean and quiet
The room was clean, comfortable, and quiet. The front and hallways look a little older but they were clean and we were really happy with our stay. It was affordable and we had two good nights so we will be back.

From the outside, the parking lot that could easily hold a couple hundred cars was completely empty and it looked like it was shut down. Google maps kept sending me further down the road so I thought maybe they rebuilt elsewhere... Nope. In the late 70s maybe early 80s this place was probably pretty amazing but it presents as barely hanging on now. Very little is notable as upgraded or improved from original construction. Sign(s) on doors saying pool, lounge, and restaurant are not open (and loky not open for a very long time). My room was huge and the bed was comfortable and clean. The carpet was frayed, there were dirty (greasy) had marks on the door, the shower curtain, and light switch plates. A lot of litter behind the TV stand and chairs are mismatched, malfunctioning, and not comfortable - furniture is pretty neat up and bits broken,shower has great water pressure and plenty of hot water. Not many people around so it is very quiet and set back from the main road so no street noise. The name Riverview is deceiving as you cannot see the river from the motel... There is a little pathway down to the river but I HIGHLY suggest you avoid going down there as the litter is atrocious and appears as though destitute folks may live/sleep down there... Overall, the 3 staff I talked with were very friendly and helpful. For the price, I don't think I would ever stay here again... As another reviewer posted, if you don't have high expectations you'll be fine.

Photos on Expedia don’t represent the current conditions of the Riverfront Hotel. Pool, restaurant and lounge are all closed with no plan to reopen. Riverfront patio no longer exists. Entire facility appears as though its golden era was 20 years ago. Was probably a show place back then. Staff was adequately helpful. Book your stay here with low expectations and you will be satisfied.

The area is nice. I believe the property was great in it's heyday. The rooms apear nice on first impression, although the main areas are clean they are not. The tv didn't work, the bedside lamps did not work, the CO detector randomly alerted, food containers under the bed. This along with a guy smoking a joint / weed in the lobby as we were leaving in the morning... . Not on my recommendation list.

The property is run down. The place smells like smoke and must. When we went to our rooms, they were both occupied. When we went back to the front desk, they acted totally surprised, but then had to check to see if anyone was in the next rooms selected. At this point I gave the key back and walked out

I was in room 155 and it was absolutely INFESTED with mosquitos. To the point where I am genuinely concerned for my health, I am covered in bites. I couldn’t sleep because they were buzzing in my ears all night. I left at 5am because I couldn’t take it anymore. I would appreciate a refund for some of my stay. Hotel was dingy as well but the mosquitos are what concerns me. It was worse than when I camp.

Hotel was extremely run down, no access to the river as advertised, the restaurant and the pool were closed and breakfast was poor options of yogurt and cereal. The room was manageable but overall I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Nice place, needs a couple minimal fixes.
The hotel location is very nice, the staff very friendly and helpfull. My only negative was that the staff did not present themselves 'professionally' in dress. They were wearing T-shirts or whatever they might weed the garden in. Breakfast was minimal and 'cjeap in appearance'. Our tub did not drain, so I showered in another vacant room. If the staff dressed more professionally, as in a uniform, and the breakfast would have been 'average for Holiday Inn Express' I would rank Riverfront slightly above average. Worth the price, perhaps could demand a higher price with slight improvments...but I don't know the market

This isn't a fancy place by any means, but I'm willing to bet back in it's day it was the bomb!!! We walked out back to the river where the pictures on the website were once taken. Even though it looks nothing like the old pictures if you take the walk down to the water it is beautiful!!! It was very busy and the staff was polite. The bed was clean and the room was clean, new tile in the bathroom . Yes the wallpaper is coming off and the carpets need to be replaced but it didn’t stink and we slept well.
