Parking felt safe. However in the middle of the night we heard loud banging. Not sure what it was. The door didn’t have peeping hole so we couldn’t see anything. We had enough towels, bathroom was clean and beds comfortable.

This was our first stay at River Edge Inn. The accommodations were clean and in good condition. The bed was so comfortable (probably my favorite part.) The water could be hotter but that’s just a personal preference. The location is great- short walk to the main strip. Check in and check out were quick and easy and the staff were friendly and helpful.
