Ok, first things first! I did not receive the room I saw in the pictures on Expedia ! When I mentioned it to the front desk they basically told me that’s on Expedia because that wasn’t the right room. That was my first issue. The rooms are a bit outdated. The floors creek, the doors squeak, the hotel is no smoking and we smelled cigarette smoke the entire time. The noise from other rooms between 2 and 7 AM is INSANE ! We saw the staff smoking vapes in the lobby. I mean if I would’ve saw the real pictures of this place I honestly don’t think I would’ve chose this hotel. It wasn’t terrible but, those pictures are definitely false advertisement!

This was one of the worst experiences we have ever had as a company. I booked 10 rooms months in advance for a tradeshow for our team, a few days prior to one of our members wanted to extend so he called the hotel to come to find out that they were actually getting fumigated, we’re not planning on telling us and just moving us once we got there to another hotel… After speaking to their staff, which I will say try to help as much as possible, they were able to get us rooms at one of their other properties for one night until we could check in at the Riviera the following day. Upon checking at the Riviera 1 the hotel looks nothing like the photos, to the rooms had no AC, sheets were dirty, towels were dirty, and a couple of our members had beds that were slanted… This was definitely not the experience that we were hoping for/this should be rated as a two star hotel. Truly absolutely unsanitary in every way shape and form.

The carpet in bldg 1, floor 2 was absolutely gross. Just so many stains and trash and hairballs in the floors. The pools need scrubbed and cleaned. Unappealing to swim in. Wall are very thin. Bed was comfortable. TV…just local. Which, is fine overall, but if you’re charging a resort fee, the resort experience should be elevated. Oh, couch is uncomfortable, especially for sleeping.

It was hot in the room despite turning on the AC- the AC is not a central AC so it was not enough to make the room cold. Also the parking was very expensive around the hotel ($50 for 12 hours). Overall, the room/hotel did not look like the advertised pictures and was a disappointment.
