This hotel is very cheap. The "breakfast" is way over priced and is at another hotel 10 minutes away and they won't give me a refund on the "breakfast" that I didn't use. I will never stay here again! Not to mention the noise, I had to wear noise cancelling headphones just to sleep.

Kind staff, overall good experience however this is a budget hotel. Please note free drink is one drink per person between 5-6 pm & breakfast is 3 blocks away. Breakfast is buffet- all they got is potatoes, veggies, bread. It’s not typical breakfast. We had an issue with our room so we had to change over to the suites. The rooms are tiny and renovated but you can see it’s “cheaper quality”. Overall, the staff was kind and tried the best to accommodate and make a better experience

The first night I struggled with the temperature dropping in late November/ cold air and my asthma kicked in, I actually thought I may have an asthma attack. I called front desk and someone came and pretty much laughed “We don’t have heating in Florida” and confirmed there is NO heating, NO climate controlled system. Note: The hotel description days ‘climate controlled’ while other websites clearly say the Riviera has heating when it does not ( false advertising on all counts). The person said they will let the manager know and someone will come see me etc the next day- not one manager has been seen since, and neither did anyone come to check on me to see if I was still alive after I mentioned a possible Asthma attack coming on. Fortunately the maintainence-concierge guy was kinder, empathetic and more understanding than anyone else at the hotel. While the Riviera hotel was clean and cosy ( King suite) I think that by being called 4 stars it should be able to hold your luggage, have climate controlled- or at least not falsly advertise this and heating on other sites as its very misleading. Brighter reasonably modern decor would be nice to brighten the rooms.

The staff were incredibly courteous and welcoming throughout my visit, always ready to help with a smile. I also really appreciated the amenities, which were convenient and well maintained. Overall, it was a great experience, and I’d definitely stay again!

The room was very clean. Unfortunately my ac did not work but the repair person was very nice and they moved my room. The door key stopped working and I had to go to the front desk 3 times. Despite this, I still recommend this hotel because the staff is stellar and the aesthetic authentic. I like the on site Cuban restaurant. The manager kindly granted a late check out for my inconvenience . If safety is a concern, book directly with the hotel as one building of the 3 is street accessible. My bed was comfortable and the location is quiet and very close to the beach and cafes. I think it is good value and have recommended it to friends.
