Riverside Motel

Riverside Motel

8/10 Good
"Lovely roomy motel unit. Very definitely needed an upgrade in the bathroom and kitchen. One couch, one side spring broken so most uncomfortable. Bed MOST comfy, that was a bonus and motel in lovely situation. Sad not upgraded. Old fashioned little packets of soap, no dispensers of shampoo nor soap."
