1 night stay for Cherry Blossom Fest

It was ok for an 11 hour stay. The name "Riverside Inn' gave me the impression it would be in a nice setting, but not the best part of town from what I could gather. not on a river. Pictures are deceiving - kind of run down once you see it with your own eyes. Breakfast area was packed/busy at both 7am & 9am. standard items, not extra tasty. not enough seating space for all those wanting to dine in - long line for waffle maker.

I’ve been staying at this hotel, off/on for about 3-5 years. It has improved greatly over the years. Although, I haven’t been charged for an early check in until this time. I travel with my pet and like to get him settled.

This is an older Best Western but the facility is very clean. We liked its convenience to the highway as we were traveling to Florida. It is dog friendly and they have a large area for them to sniff around as well as poop bags/garbage cans for cleaning up.
