Beautiful historic home within walking distance to the park and several good restaurants. Comfortable and clean room. The breakfaat was made to order to each morning served with French press coffee or juice. The service was great: everyone was very friendly and available to assist when needed.

A mixed experience

The Riverdale Inn is beautifully restored and there are some lovely rooms in the main house. We had one night in a pretty, spacious light room at the top of the house. Unfortunately our second and third nights were in “Lancaster, a premium double room” in a converted garage in a second building in the car park. It was dark and depressing (the only lights being two bedside lights, although the newly renovated bathroom was well lit). The furniture was well worn and the whole ambience was dreary and incredibly disappointing. The only outside light came through a small window overlooking a neighbouring property with people walking through and a window in the door. This was an expensive mistake, we would never have booked it if we had known what it was like.

Nice spot near the river

Cute BnB in nice setting near the river. The shower came on by itself at night because "the people in the room upstairs were taking a shower". The gurgling drain was noisy and disruptive. Breakfast: ham and cheese omelet was perfect; however, the pancakes were burnt (I mean black).

Home style inn on the River Walk

It was a quick one night stay for a show at the Osborn Center. Next year I will make a weekend of it.

Impeccable and very memorable stay for our family. We staying in the Carriage House and the beds were extremely comfortable. We enjoyed all of the little touches, including the nice towels and linens, bath products and the full kitchen. While we didn't cook, we did use the refrigerator and microwave. The breakfast (Michelle is the cook) and the reception (Sidney) were extremely kind and helpful. Really, I couldn't think of anything we'd want to do differently. It was perfect for our family. Thank you!

The staff was very friendly, and the main house is beautiful. They offer many different options for breakfast which were incredible. The only drawback was the Wi-Fi for the carriage house was not reliable - but staying at a quaint bed and breakfast isn’t about having incredible Wi-Fi. Unfortunately for us it was needed, but we were able to enable hot spots on our phones and crisis was averted.Overall we enjoyed our stay. It really is in a beautiful part of Jacksonville.
