It was a basic motel that didn't have basic things we just expect in a place to stay. No closet to hang a coat, no towel racks in bathroom, no cups/glasses to drink water. We won't be staying there again.

The staff was very nice and helpful. The room was clean, although maybe needed a little touching up. For example, there were blinds but no curtains on the windows. Some people don't do as well with sun streaming in in the morning. The reason we don't rate the River Valley a 5 is that it's not quite worth the cost. At a lower price, it would have been fine.

The manager was extremely kind and helpful. The room was freshly painted, had nice faux wood blinds, wooden floor, a new bathroom and a comfortable bed. The desk and rest of furniture were old and worn out; they are probably remodeling little by little? Free parking in front of the room, open wifi.

Stayed for one night (there for Family weekend at UMass Amherst). The owner (Christopher) called ahead of time to ask about our arrival time and to see what temperature we would want the room set up at. He welcomed us upon arrival. Quick and easy check-in. The room was very clean. Bed (we had a king size) was comfortable. AC/heating unit worked very well. I would definitely consider staying here again if we can’t find a closer to Amherst alternative.

An Unexpected Gem!

This was an unexpectedly exellent stay. The rooms were very spacious, very clean. The owner was very pleasant and helpful. The beds were also quite comfortable! Having stayed at two other properties during our visit to the area, I can say that the River Valley Inn outshined the others. We should have booked there for more nights.

No coffee service in room and office lobby was not open until 8 AM without special request. Found used towels in our bathroom- had to ask for clothes hangers and cups for water Refrigerator was iced up. Management was gracious but having to repeatedly ask for basics was tiring and it was poor vale for $

Great Stay

This was a lovely stay. My room was far larger than I expected, clean, newly renovated, well priced. It was literally 7 minutes from Northampton where the rooms were 3 times the price.

Room was clean, check in was easy, owner friendly, bed was comfortable - only complain would be no clothes hangers or closet, and another choice besides Roku TV would have been nice. My mom wanted to watch NBC news and we couldn’t find it.
