Riverview Inn & Suites, an Ascend Collection Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were spacious and beds were comfortable. The movie room on the 2nd floor was an added plus. Things that could use improvement would be keeping the bathroom stocked with more than one roll of toilet tissue/Kleenex and also the breakfast was not good at all."
