Staff were friendly and accommodating. The rooms were clean and it was very quiet. The only thing that might need to be improved on in the future is better parking.

For the price this was a good place. Rooms are clean and staff friendly. Needs a couple of softer pillows and maybe another towel or two. Overall a good place to stay.

very clean and a very nice kitchenette area. The air conditioning worked great, which was wonderful because it was a warm evening. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was very nice. The only issue I had was that I could not get the TV to work and it was too late in the evening to bother calling somebody. I would stay here again.

The room is very clean and lovely. The owner of the motel is very friendly and welcoming. The small things really mattered. For example, he asked to take off my shoes before entering the room, which I normally do anyway, but this meant he cares for the cleanliness and maintenance of his rooms. The room was also very affordable, has charming details, and I am very delighted. Highly recommended!

Room was clean when i arrived but i had one smelly towel and the one of the pillow cases was dirty. They changed that without any difficulty. Had a really nice kitchenette. They dont clean your room or take your garbage out or anything. You're on your own. Some people might like that. There is very little furnishings. If you are staying for a while you might want to bring something to put your clothes in if you dont want to live out of your suitcase.

Not enough credit is given to these smaller businesse motels. The room was clean and modern, the fridge had free beverages and a few candies on the counter. The only issue was the adolescent pattern sheets and the hard pillows. I guess you can't be perfect.

After all the confusion caused by myself booking the wrong day with Expedia, the owner/ manager patiently helped me clear that up. He helped my husband and me to our room, explaining everything. And then, he had fresh coffee ready in the office in the early morning. We highly recommend staying here!

This was the first time we had stayed at the Riverside Motel. The motel is clean and quiet, and has had extensive upgrades and renovations. The owner is wonderful and very attentive to the comfort of his guests. There was work being done near the room we had booked, so he upgraded our reservation to a suite away from the work area. We have plans for another trip to Medicine Hat and will be definitely booking rooms here for our stay.

Riverside Motel was EXCELLENT. I had read reviews prior to booking, and they were all correct. First off, the staff was very friendly, and accommodating. The motel has access right off the highway, for easy access. Plus, the room we stayed in had a kitchenette, equipped with dishes, and cooking appliances to make the stay feel more like home. My only negative critique, believe it or not, was that the pillows were a bit hard. But thats something I can plan for when I book with them again. Great job, Riverside Motel. I will be recommending you to everyone I know planning a stay in Medicine Hat

The staff are very friendly and helpful. The place seems to have some recent upgrades. The kitchenette wasn’t necessary for my stay, but I can see how it would be handy especially for longer stays. One drawback of staying in a motel where people are preparing food, is there can be lingering food smells. It wasn’t unpleasant though.
