My room, at the back and on the third level, was clean, comfortable and quiet. Nothing fancy here, but I wasn't looking for that. I was a little surprised at the $20-cash only deposit on the room key, but it was cheerfully refunded when I checked out. You also have to pay for ice and you don't get much for 25 cents. But that's no big deal to me. By and large I was satisfied and would stay here again if traveling alone.

An older property but still clean and comfortable. Bring your quarters because you'll need them to buy ice!

The Staff was more than nice, they were very nice. Easy check-in and check-out. No problems. The only complaint that I have is that I chose this motel based on the picture that I saw and the room was not like that at all. The room was clean and tidi but the bed was lopsided and too soft and the room was not what the pic told.

Riverside options are limited. It’s either fancy expensive or someplace like this. For the price point, it was clean and comfortable enough. The property next door is an unsightly problem.

We came to this location after having an unacceptable experience at a different hotel. The property is clean, and I did not see foot traffic going through the property. We stayed two nights here, I would use this location again.

Not sure if this is the best area of Riverside; lots of homeless and obvious serious drug use in the area. All the nearby eating establishments are fast food type restaurants. The room was poorly furnished, no kleenex for example and the lighting was not comfortable. The room had two beds, one was awful so I obviously used the better, which was adequate.

Don't bother with this place. The front desk clerk wanted to double charge me for the room. $124 per night is ridiculous for this motel, but double charging for a night, not this sucker.

the inside of the rooms should be updated, very old decor, which is scary to me, meaning that they might not keep things as clean as needed, since the decor is sooooo very outdated, but all in all the people behind the window were VERY kind and friendly
