"Although dated and needing a refresh, it was good for what we paid for and very convenient location. Bed was comfortable enough but the pillows were totally flat. Towels were oddly small, probably the smallest I have ever seen in a hotel. But we were pleased with the temp and being able to adjust as we needed. Quiet and convenient. We would stay again."

8/10 Good
"The best way to think about the Riverside Inn is to imagine that you’re driving through southern Italy and come upon a charming but old and not terribly well maintained hotel. Your room is OK, not great, but you are able to have cocktails and a quite good dinner outside on a lovely patio next to a flowing river. You can also soak in the lava spring hot tubs in the basement. Pretty good deal."
