The hotel did not provide breakfast for us so we did not eat there. When I could not find my iPad after storing my bag in their "locked" storage room. The staff said they would call the manager and told me to wait and I waited for 10 minutes they still did not call the manager, so I left. Later when my husband went to ask about the iPad they just told us nobody turned in an iPad. The hotel did not provide cups for us until we ask for it the second day we stayed there. The bathroom has a bad moldy smell to it, so I have to close the bathroom door when I went to sleep to prevent from getting sick from mold. I would not go back to this hotel the next time I am in Miami.

This is the best place to say in South Beach if you want to catch a good night sleep and also go around and visit happening areas during the evening hours . There are three convenient of parking options. This is not clearly mentioned, but it would help if they clearly advise.. We came in early by 3 to 4 hours and they gave us the room that was fantastic. Customer Service kudos and not even big chain hotels do that.. now regarding the parking you have free street parking for two hours if you’re just plan to be there, you can keep moving your car every two hours. That’s a free option. Second is the pay option using your ParkMobile app. Between 3 AM and 9 am you have free parking. And the third option is there is a parking garage on the 23rd street, which is just a five minute walk. Use that. Don’t use the one which is right across the street because it’s $40 per day. The only advantage being you can go in and out as many times but honestly we don’t need to. There is the fourth transportation option which is a free wagon or a trolley you call it that goes and you can use that. This is a great place great bedding I would recommend you upgrade to the suite and it’s worth a stay if it is three nights or more.

This hotel is very cheap. The "breakfast" is way over priced and is at another hotel 10 minutes away and they won't give me a refund on the "breakfast" that I didn't use. I will never stay here again! Not to mention the noise, I had to wear noise cancelling headphones just to sleep.

Kind staff, overall good experience however this is a budget hotel. Please note free drink is one drink per person between 5-6 pm & breakfast is 3 blocks away. Breakfast is buffet- all they got is potatoes, veggies, bread. It’s not typical breakfast. We had an issue with our room so we had to change over to the suites. The rooms are tiny and renovated but you can see it’s “cheaper quality”. Overall, the staff was kind and tried the best to accommodate and make a better experience

The first night I struggled with the temperature dropping in late November/ cold air and my asthma kicked in, I actually thought I may have an asthma attack. I called front desk and someone came and pretty much laughed “We don’t have heating in Florida” and confirmed there is NO heating, NO climate controlled system. Note: The hotel description days ‘climate controlled’ while other websites clearly say the Riviera has heating when it does not ( false advertising on all counts). The person said they will let the manager know and someone will come see me etc the next day- not one manager has been seen since, and neither did anyone come to check on me to see if I was still alive after I mentioned a possible Asthma attack coming on. Fortunately the maintainence-concierge guy was kinder, empathetic and more understanding than anyone else at the hotel. While the Riviera hotel was clean and cosy ( King suite) I think that by being called 4 stars it should be able to hold your luggage, have climate controlled- or at least not falsly advertise this and heating on other sites as its very misleading. Brighter reasonably modern decor would be nice to brighten the rooms.
