I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Everything about our stay was wonderful. The room was spacious and super clean with a nice view and the location is perfect. I can’t say enough nice things about the staff - someone was available for late check-in as well as via text when I had questions. When we decided to extend our stay by a day due to the weather, adding an extra night was no trouble at all. We can’t wait to stay here again!

The room was clean and the staff at reception were very nice. The door to our balcony had a draft coming through it but that did not affect our stay at all just feel that management need to know. I had no problems with the choice for breakfast if you like a light breakfast which I do and it's not to filling if your planning to go out for a late breakfast

Cozy place. It was clean and the staff was great. You can tell the place is old but has been remodeled. The biggest aggravation was no desk or table and chairs to sit a laptop at.

Parking felt safe. However in the middle of the night we heard loud banging. Not sure what it was. The door didn’t have peeping hole so we couldn’t see anything. We had enough towels, bathroom was clean and beds comfortable.

This was our first stay at River Edge Inn. The accommodations were clean and in good condition. The bed was so comfortable (probably my favorite part.) The water could be hotter but that’s just a personal preference. The location is great- short walk to the main strip. Check in and check out were quick and easy and the staff were friendly and helpful.
