I took a chance in this Motel , arriving tired and feeling quite grateful to find a room , the last one , I was told. $135. The nicer , newer , smarter looking motels on the strip all had the NO VACANCY signs out . It was 3 pm. The lady in the office was kind enough , telling me it was the last room , the only room with a bath , as if this might be a special feature I might enjoy. The room was accessible from an area where the managers hung out and had a smoking area for themselves , something that proved rather unpleasant for me as their smoke wafted through the cracks in the door to my room . Their elderly poodle was a random barker , no fault of the doggie , but annoying if you want to put your head down. As you enter the room , The grubby pink sofa was an eye catcher for all the wrong reasons , there was no milk in the fridge for a cuppa , but supplied when asked for in the morning??? The toilet cistern made a high pitched agonising noise all night as it constantly refilled itself , wasting water and being annoying with the sound. The bathroom was straight out of 1962 with rusty drain vents and all , someone had added a security feature to the window by jamming a black plastic coat hanger in it , preventing it from opening ??? This bathroom was a demolition dream to me. The bed was king size , squishy soft , no headboard , the sheets were clean , there was a group of two reading lamps unglamorously stuck on the wall in the worst position , just where my pillows should be , the one lamp that worked did the job . In summary , I wanted to stay somewhere three nights , but could not wait to get out of the smelly overpriced dysfunctional room to find a better place . It might have been ok for $80 a night but at $135 it was a rip off. Unfortunately the following night I had a similar experience in a different motel, I will not be returning to the Riviera Motel. This motel needs a total refurb, it is grubby , tired, old and very out of date . Not enough attention paid to maintenance issues.
