Riviera Motor Inn

Was there on business, was there to sleep

I stayed here overnight with my 14 yr old daughter who was attending the New Balance Nationals Outdoor meet in Philly. If you enjoy explaining to your daughter why there are scantily clad women taking smoke breaks in front of your motel room, as what use to be their bar in the front of the motel is now a STRIP CLUB, then this is the place for you! Additionally the place looks like it was still under construction, there was black "goo" on 2 of the 3 walls in my shower, the barn door to the bathroom could only be opened and closed from the outside, there were blood stains on both duvets in my room, I killed a roach by the trash can, the bathroom toilet paper was 1-ply and damn near translucent, there was spacing around the front door frame that allowed light (and anything else) in from the bottom and where the door closes, the tv was not a smart tv and ONLY played a grainy version of their local CBS affiliate, the room didn't have a phone, alarm clock and had a drawer-less desk with no chair. Upsides were that it was very well lit at night and the manager did move quickly to get housekeeping to clean out the aforementioned black "goo" out of my shower. Oh also should you accidentally miss the turn in to the motel there is a 4 mile journey to get back to the motel based off where it is situated.

Great place to get what you pay for. Need more towels! Non smoking still smelled like smoke, but again, the price is right, the vibes are fine, and it's pretty clean. Extremely simple setup in the rooms, don't expect much and you'll be satisfied

There was a little bit of dust and some very small insects but all around a great room and great stay. I will be staying again.

Mysterious stains on the sheets. Filthy floor that hadn't been mopped. No plugs in the bathroom for hairdryer if you brought one because they didn't have any. No dressers. No closets. Sketchy security. Front desk lady was nice.
