I won't book through Hotels.com again as the price of a room booked directly by me is much cheaper.

Clean and quiet
The room was clean, comfortable, and quiet. The front and hallways look a little older but they were clean and we were really happy with our stay. It was affordable and we had two good nights so we will be back.

This hotel needs to be removed from your list of hotels. The place is a dump! The front desk person said, they only clean rooms when they get a registered guest. That scares me. I canceled our reservations

Toilet
Bathing in the tub gives you a birds-eye view of the inside of the toilet. One of the "under-rings" inside was unclean. Can't be seen from above, just from the tub. Might be picky on my part, but excrement anywhere is bad.

Hotel was extremely run down, no access to the river as advertised, the restaurant and the pool were closed and breakfast was poor options of yogurt and cereal. The room was manageable but overall I would not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Photos on Expedia don’t represent the current conditions of the Riverfront Hotel. Pool, restaurant and lounge are all closed with no plan to reopen. Riverfront patio no longer exists. Entire facility appears as though its golden era was 20 years ago. Was probably a show place back then. Staff was adequately helpful. Book your stay here with low expectations and you will be satisfied.

The property is run down. The place smells like smoke and must. When we went to our rooms, they were both occupied. When we went back to the front desk, they acted totally surprised, but then had to check to see if anyone was in the next rooms selected. At this point I gave the key back and walked out

The area is nice. I believe the property was great in it's heyday. The rooms apear nice on first impression, although the main areas are clean they are not. The tv didn't work, the bedside lamps did not work, the CO detector randomly alerted, food containers under the bed. This along with a guy smoking a joint / weed in the lobby as we were leaving in the morning... . Not on my recommendation list.

This isn't a fancy place by any means, but I'm willing to bet back in it's day it was the bomb!!!
We walked out back to the river where the pictures on the website were once taken. Even though it looks nothing like the old pictures if you take the walk down to the water it is beautiful!!!
It was very busy and the staff was polite.
The bed was clean and the room was clean, new tile in the bathroom .
Yes the wallpaper is coming off and the carpets need to be replaced but it didn’t stink and we slept well.

The staff was very friendly & professional. That's where the good ends.
The breakfast was minimal.
The hotel & room were filthy. We had spiders in our room. The carpet was disgusting in our room & hallways. We had a non smoking room but some one was smoking near us & our room stunk. Under the air conditioner/heater there was no flooring so the pink insulation was stuck in there & visible.
There is a homeless camp behind the building & a lot of trash.
Don't believe the pictures of the nice sitting area behind the hotel, its not at all like that.
Worst hotel ever.
We did survive our stay without getting bed bugs.

Misleading, not as expected
The picture shown for the hotel's website is misleading. Although the hotel's name is "Riverfront" there is no view, nor is there a lawn looking out over the river. The hotel is in poor repair, especially the exterior, which is likely why the picture was used.
