Riverview Inn & Suites

We stayed at the Riverview for two nights for a wedding in nearby Bristol, RI. The hotel served our purpose very well. It was obvious that the rooms were recently refurbished and the location was very clean as well. It appears that work is ongoing. The indoor pool (closed) looks like it was just repainted. Additionally, there is a large open space, riverside, with a basketball court, spot for a volleyball net, gazebo, and children's playground. A bit of maintenance and that can be a very valuable asset. No food on site. A few "grocery store purchased" snacks were in the lobby for breakfast. However Roger's family restaurant less than a mile away was inexpensive and very good. Jillian's tavern shares a parking lot with the hotel. Very nice inside with good looking menu, but we just spent an hour there for a drink. If our schedule had permitted we would definitely have tried a meal. Convenient location right off of I95 so travel to Bristol area and Providence or even Fall River is very convenient. Staff was very attentive and housekeeper even told us on the way out that she would check our room and clear security deposit right away. If you need a nice place to stay, reasonably priced, and want to use it primarily for a roof over your head, this is a great stop. When pool is open or if you have young children for basketball and playground, it's even better.

The stay was overall fine without any issues. The facility was just dated and could benefit from some upgrades.

I don't mind a hotel that's a bit rundown, but on this occasion, the manager isn't even trying. The toilette paper dispenser in our room was completely not functional, it was so bad that I had to pry it open to get any paper out of it. Once it was open I saw that both rolls of paper had been picked at with small chunks torn away in a desperate attempt to get any paper from it. This pretty much sums up how much this hotel cares about it's customers. The potential to have an amazing pool is completely squandered. The pool area is filthy with moldy windows and NO TOWELS. You have to go to the front desk on the other end of the building just to get a pool towel. There is no breakfast. They had coffee with powdered creamer. The hotel itself is not the worse, but the manager completely neglects the place and it's customers.

Cheap except for the price Cobwebs, no breakfast, no milk, dated. Oil the door sliders for the patios. Pillows were dismall, and DON'T charge all that money for an outdated bomb that could be a gem!

There is a sports bar within walking distance, also a package store. Property needs some updating and love.
