The Rivera is in a working class neighborhood close to the airport. It is reasonably priced and the staff were very hospitable. There are shops and a pub nearby.

I like this place because it was so close to the airport and not real expensive. We only stayed one night so we could catch our plane early in the morning. At first I wasn’t sure how safe the area was when we first pulled up but once we stayed for a little while and watched the people walking around the streets we realized it was very safe. Perfect for what we needed

Good location, but I thought I could walk from the airport. Takes 50 minuts
Clean towels, sheets and linnen.
I wrote them and booked airport pick up and breakfast, but both wee ignored.

Very close to the airport, but we stayed only for one night because we had a late flight in. We wouldn’t stay here for the whole duration of our trip - but it got the job done for a night to sleep.

Do not pay in advance.
There was no water. Claim a broken watermain is the problem, but disappointed to find this after we check in and try use the toilet!
The bathroom is very small, less than 4 feet wide and the toilet is too close to the shower.
The room was clean, but getting to the room was treacherous. Uneven riser heights on the steps and very narrow passages.

I booked and paid for a room 2 months in advance. Their listing says rooms are not guaranteed unless paid in advance. I received a message about 18 hours before check in time that they were overbooked and were moving me to a different location. I said this was unacceptable as the new location was far from where I needed to be and was not in a good neighbourhood. They said they were sorry about this and that they were having problems with Expedia and the overbooking was Expedia’s fault not theirs. told them I would be cancelling my reservation and that there would be no problems as long as there was a refund. Then total since. Expedia is also getting total silence from them.

El personal fue demasiado amable, en verdad en este aspecto fue muy agradable la estancia.
La habitación en la que me hospede, me parece que es la No. 1, es funcional y tiene lo necesario sin embargo puntos a mejorar: la puerta del baño es corrediza y no tiene ninguna manija para poder jalarla y seguro para cerrar correctamente, la tubería de la regadera esta corta y tienes que acercarte mucho a la pared para lograr que el agua caiga correctamente sobre uno.
Considera que si llevas maletas grandes tendrás que cargarlas por escaleras estrechas.
En general me parece opción cercana al aeropuerto y si no eres quisquilloso con lo anterior, no tendrás problema.
