Hotel Boutique Rivera Del Rio

Our room was nice with a balcony. The top floor pool was a great place to hang out in the afternoon. Lots of good restaurants nearby. Never walked more than 3 blocks to get anything we needed.

Cool room names

courteous staff, clean facility, breakfast good, rooftop pool and bar wonderful. there was weak water pressure in room, unable to use shower, used shower at pool.

WARNING The hotel is located in a quiet side street, trees and birds and a dry river in front. Interior design is special and quaint; good rooms, good brkfst. Javier, in charge of service, is welcoming and very helpful. Why the warning? Bcs u might get stranded in the shower without water. Why go into detail? Bcs it demonstrates attitude. Why is it imprtnt? Bcs my impression is the prblm is permanent. At my first shower (23:00): pressure started weak; then water stopped all together; after 2 minutes, almost drying myself with soap on, burst of strong pressure; then trickle again. In the morning I talked with the manager; she wasn't surprised, which says a lot. She said they will try to fix it. When I asked in the afternoon, she said prblm was fixed but cannot gurantee it won't return (duh?). I took her offer to relocate to a room on the other side of the hotel. Javier came to help me move. Before leaving the room we tried the shower; same trickle. He agreed with me the prblm wasn't fixed, and said other rooms on that side had the same prblm. During the whole process no one apologized or said "I m sorry". Upon checkout, the manager told me not to pay 12 usd for one of my brkfsts. When I asked why, she said "bcs of water prblm". Even then she couldn't utter the word "sorry". Recommendation: Check ahead. PS In both rooms, despite dfrnt glass doors, shower water creats a pool over a quarter of bathroom floor.

Love this place. Great staff (especially Elizabeth), great rooms, great location.
