Marriott Riverside at the Convention Center
Overall the food was quite good. I did have one unfortunate experience with poorly prepared broccoli but outside of that everything else was excellent. The hotel is very convenient to downtown riverside and is very convenient if you have places to go in that area. I highly recommend it.
