Riviera Motel - Motel in Kissimmee - 2248 E Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy, USA

I stayed at the Riviera Motel because I was looking for something cheap and I had arrived in town after dark. It was the first cheap-looking motel I saw. I was appropriately greeted at the front desk by a India lady. Their living quarters are ajacent to the lobby and it did smell of curry, not marijuana. The rate is $30 single plus tax. My assigned room was right next to the office. I found the room and bedding spotless. Plenty of clean towels. ||I did not need to shower but did notice there was no shower head on the pipe. TVs worked fine. There was no noise or any annoyances while I was there. ||I didn't see a phone in the room but do have a cell phone anyhow.||The room was well-lighted and appropriately furnished. There are some chain restaurants a couple miles up the road and I stopped and ate at the Denny's. There is an Outback Steakhouse up the road about 4 miles.||The pool is covered for the winter I guess. ||Plenty of free parking. ||I think I got my moneysworth.

This hotel is run very poorly. The walls are thin, you can hear every noise outside all night. If you want ice, be prepared to put a coin in the ice machine. The WIFI does not work. There are no phones in the room, so if you need to contact the office, you need to go there in person. I do not recommend this motel. Edit to add we had paid for 2 nights but since the wifi was not working they agreed to refund our second night. Then a week later, they charged us for the the second night anyway. Not happy!

We were so tired after driving for 19 days of our road trip to Arizona. The bed was very comfortable and would stay again. The room was clean and we really appreciate that. With pets allowed in rooms now it makes it harder to travel with allergies. This place gave me no problems with that.

I don't like the fact that if you want an affordable hotel you have to go so close to the attractions. My room was horrible. I usually clean my own room any time I stay at hotels but I was there for a short time and the entire time I was cleaning because it was bad.

So it's not the worst motel I've ever stayed at, but if we didn't need a place to sleep we never would have stayed there. The people running the place were not friendly. The brochure they have at the front desk has pictures of the Riviera from it's hay day, back in the 70s, which is probably the last time it was properly cleaned. The first thing I noticed about the room was the odor, it was so strong, the best way to describe it is a cross between bug spray and baby powder. Obvious roach spray is obvious. Then I found a long black hair on my pillow, another in the sheets. I slept with shoes on. The one plus is that no hookers knocked during the night.

The worse service hotel, don’t ever book this place. They didn’t let us to check in because we got there late due to flight delayed.

I stayed in this motel last minute and checked in very late. Room was disgusting!! The room smelled like mold, bathroom shower had chipped off paint. Shower curtains had holes on it. Someone's food was left in the fridge. Small Cockroaches in the bathroom. Hair in the shower. Brown stains on walls. Manager never called me after I left complaint in curry smelling lobby. Front desk clerk didn't care or seem to be news when I confronted him.

First of I'm going to start by saying that I couldn't find any other hotel that wasn't booked in a 20 mile radius. It was funny to me that we were the only ones that were staying here. The main office reeked of marijuana when we went in. As I talked to the Indian dude he opened the key door and as he gave me my key he winked and said " have fun" which was weird af. I got to the room and I would have felt safer and cleaner of I pitched a tent at the county landfill. The room was hotter than two rats having s@x in a wool sock. I took a shower in the rain instead of the shower because there was blood residue. Also found some white powder in the bath room could have been bath salt, or cocaine idk but it was deffientlt scary. Now to the beds I slept in we're harder than a rock and the sheets haven't been washed at all an I picked off two ticks and I just got back from the lOcal Clinic and they said I have BED BUGS. Eww. And lastly which really set me off. I got back to the motel around 4 am from clubbing and I seen a really rough African male that was assaulting some women upstairs and the wine was screaming for help to the Indian guy that was in the office and he said " listen b!$ch you got yourself into that mess and you can get yourself out of it. I left immediately and had to leave all my stuff in the hotel and head north. The pool is covered in allununium shutters which Is weird af. Please do yourself a favor and don't stay here it's bad, real bad.
