Expedia should no allow this property to come up in the hotels section. It is managed like an Airbnb. Expedia confirmed my booking on the app. They did not mention check is via email. I got to the property without any way to check in. Resulted in having to book another real hotel with real staff. Good luck getting a refund. I was supposed to have called a phone number which I didn't have. What a bother.

We enjoyed a relaxing overnight stay at the Riverview Inn. The property has a charming, historic feel, and definitely fits the “rustic retreat” vibe. The view overlooking the river and mountains is breathtaking. We especially loved sitting in the rocking chairs (really nice touch) on the balcony and using the hot tub while watching the river bend below. Breakfast the next morning was surprisingly good, with warm options and thoughtful touches. Future guests should know that the inn is located close to I-24, so there is some highway noise. There is a Publix and a Walgreens at the foot of the mountain which was very convenient. It's also located just down from Ruby Falls. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the atmosphere overall was quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed the abundance of pillows on the bed, the fluffy white robes, and the in-room Keurig complete with coffee pods, sweeteners, and creamers. The Roku TV was really nice as well, as we could log in to our personal streaming services. If you’re looking for a cozy, charming place to unwind and enjoy the scenery, especially as a couple’s getaway, this is a lovely spot. We’re glad we stayed.

The bed was very comfortable and the views were beautiful. There were about 5 stink bugs and several lady bugs on the ceiling but that is normal this time of year. Overall a wonderful stay! The team communicated our room code several hours before check-in which allowed us the flexibility to relax sooner before heading out to the city for dinner.
