First day we got there the receptionist was super rude telling us how there’s no quiet place in the hotel when all we asked was to switch us to a higher room. Idk how this place has 4 stars. The information online is false. The pool closes at 8 but online it says 24/7. The room always felt dirty even after cleaning, had a weird smell. No phone to contact reception and they don’t even have a microwave and the kitchen didn’t help us either. Definitely stay somewhere else unless you are never planning on staying at the hotel.

Selon la description des inclusions, le déjeuner était inclus, toutefois, on doit se déplacer à un autre établissement hors de l’hôtel pour le service. Le café n’étant pas inclus, on devais le payer. Aussi, le fait de devoir se déplacer hors du site de l’hôtel pour le prendre le déjeuner était bizarre car le restaurant de l’hôtel offre le déjeuner si on paye. De plus, les assiettes mises à notre disposition sont des assiettes jetables et la nourriture est de mauvaise qualité.

The room was clean however… The jet aircraft engine in the air conditioning unit made so much noise I could not list n to the tv at a normal volume. The maid picked up the used towels but left new ones on a table by the door, not putting them in their proper place. I booked too many days and ended up paying for the days I could not use, the hotel said sorry there was nothing they could do… Disappointed to say the least.

1/5- do not recommend

We did not have a good stay at the Riviera Suites. We read reviews before going and decided to book a room for the night before and after our cruise, as it is close to the beach. The check-in process took a really long time. The staff were not friendly and were not helpful. The biggest complaint was that the elevator was down and we had to take the stairs to our 4th floor room. The stairwell smelled like dirty feet and body odor. Our room faced the bar/restaurant and it was SOOO loud at night. Our door did not shut itself, so we had to push it closed. The toilet was super loud and had a screaming sound coming from it. The shower door did not latch, so when we took a shower, the water ran out and onto the tile floor, making it slippery. The sink is on the outside of the toilet/shower area, so it was not sanitary to use the bathroom and open the door to go out and wash our hands. A couple of positives were that it was two blocks from the beach, the A/C worked really well and the main building/check-in smelled AMAZING!!!
