Not appropriate for older people as you have to walk up flights of stairs with luggage as there's no lifts
It was very loud inside the room from street noise. The room smelt musty/mouldy, and the bed made us roll to the middle (we aren't big people). The stairwell smelt strongly of cigarette. We won't go back, great if you are just looking for a bed for one person, not good if you need to spend any time inside the room.
All i asked for was a king size bed and a pool i was not told until i arrived at the property that the pool was out of order and my king size bed was 2 singles pushed together. Family room with limited cooking facilities and busted light fittings, aircon was on but cant change temperature, lounge couch looked like it had come from kerdside collection. Lots more to list. All in all i well never be staying at one of there Hotels again
Great stay, location convenient, clean & spacious room & great rate. I received extra special checking details as arriving late due to road conditions; well done Riverside Central Hotel.
Property was under electrical construction with no proper lighting in stairwells. No staff on duty early evening or early morning. This place does not have an elevator if you check in after 5:30 and it is a one or two flights of stairs to get to the first and second floors. Price point was good and rooms were reasonably quiet for being next to a main road overpass.
