My stay was far from pleasant. The hotel felt more like a shelter than a place to rest, with a disturbing atmosphere and uninviting surroundings. While the room was spacious, it lacked cleanliness, particularly the bathroom. For $70 a night, I expected much better. This place might work in an emergency, but I'd recommend looking elsewhere for a more comfortable stay.

My stay at this hotel was not what I hoped for. While the room was clean and parking was cheap, I had a lot of trouble with the heating and the overall condition of the hotel left much to be desired. The neighborhood felt uninviting, and I wouldn't recommend staying here unless it's absolutely necessary. For the price, I expected a bit more comfort and a better atmosphere.

I found the hotel to be a mixed bag. While the price was affordable and my room was reasonably clean, there were several downsides. The location felt unsafe, and I had a troubling encounter with a mouse in my room. Although I managed to check out without any hassle, I wouldn't recommend this place unless you're really desperate for a cheap stay.

My experience at this hotel was incredibly disappointing. The rooms were not what I expected at all, and the overall cleanliness and safety of the place were concerning. While the price was low, it clearly reflected the deteriorating condition of the hotel. I wouldn’t recommend it unless you really have no other options.

Staying at the Riviera Hotel was quite an ordeal. The lobby didn’t give a great first impression, with a lot of unusual activity and an unsettling atmosphere. The room was surprisingly spacious, which was a relief, but overall, the hotel feels like it's seen better days. Due to the condition and vibe, I wouldn't recommend it unless you're really on a tight budget.

The room was surprisingly spacious, with a sofa and en suite bathroom. However, it was clear that the hallways and common areas needed a lot of updating.

The hotel offers a good price for the New York area, but it definitely needs some modern updates. The rooms are very clean, although I encountered a couple of pests. While the location isn't the best with some noise and safety concerns, it’s only a short walk to the subway, making it a decent budget option for the city.

My stay at this hotel was a major disappointment. The location felt unsafe with people hanging around, and the overall cleanliness left much to be desired. The room had some redeeming qualities with clean sheets, but I encountered a mouse, which was alarming. While the check-in was straightforward, I definitely wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and secure stay.
