Second time I"ve stayed there. Despite the doors facing the outside, I feel safe and it's so clean and modern. Staff are generous and kind. The free breakfast is amazing. Robot coffee machine and waffles...and a breakfast steward to help you with anything you might need.

I regret to leave this slightly negative review here. On the last day before check-out, my room was not cleaned. One clerk explained that it was due to the system being down, while another told me they don’t offer cleaning the day before check-out. These inconsistent explanations were a bit confusing and frustrating. A manager assured me they would be in touch to resolve the issue, but unfortunately I haven't received the follow-up. I’m sorry to leave this message here, but I hope the hotel can work on improving its communication and service.

Staff were friendly & rooms clean. The beds weren’t the best and frames a little cheap. They made a lot of noise with any movement. There was night construction which was pretty loud from our room. The breakfast was decent and staff very attentive to the food and cleanliness.

Unfortunately the noise from the main road is very loud and pretty constant. They do supply ear plugs which tells you lots. Laura the front desk and Jess the breakfast girl and the housekeeping ladt were great...the manager not so much.

This BW Riviera was a surprisingly awesome. Staff are wonderful and the room we had. Wow! Maybe just updating the bathroom but I report no negatives. I have been to many hotels around the world including overwater bungalow to wooden structure in Afghanistan and this was one place that I blurted "wow" It served our needs as far as location and this place was a delightful surprise. Will stay here over the other higher tier places. That coffee machine was the clutch though.

I have never had an issue staying a hotel but over the last week was horrible. Caring for my sick grandmother at Stanford driving back and forth I would hope to get some quiet, not the case people stomping above me, people running passed my door, and yelling all through the late hrs. When I was asked how my stay was I told them horrible and the front just stared at me and just asked me if I wanted my receipt didn’t ask what happened or anything. The only person that did her job very well was the lady at the breakfast counter she was apologetic when the simplest things didn’t go right and went to fix it right away. I unfortunately don’t recommend this felicity

Great stay for campus visit.

We chose the property based on price and proximity to university campus. I was expecting a typical drab and frumpy motel. What we found was a clean, cheerful property well maintained with freindly staff. The room was clean, smelled fresh and inviting. Considering the locales, a good value for the money

Thermostat was turned off when I arrived and the room was very cold. It took some time to warm up. Also lukewarm water in the shower both mornings of my stay. Disappointing. Great location, however.
