6.0

River view was nice, water was muddy from the rain, but the views were nice. Also new mattresses, nice a firm!

The driveway is a little tricky getting out, the entrance is not in a curve, but close enough. Also, door was sticking back, my wife could not open the door due to the swelling of the door jam, instead of addressing the issue then and there, they waited until we checked out to address it, for 2 days if 8 was not in the room my wife couldn't get out without calling to push the door open. Also, booked with booking.com and was charged for the room, then charged again by the hotel when we got there.

Nice place but at a very hefty price point

7.0

Cleanliness, friendly staff and location

PRICE!!! At $188 per night it was way overpriced. I have stayed at 5 star hotels for close to that price. The price should have been closer to $100 per night or less for the type of accommodation it was

Picturesque location and very tranquil beside the river, conveniently located close to town.

9.0

Very picturesque location, and very conveniently located to town. The room was very comfortable and had everything I needed. The staff was very nice as well! It was very tranquil being beside the river and although it was close to town, it had a feeling of being farther out away from traffic. It was also very close to a grocery store, which was convenient. I would most definitely stay at Riverbend Lodging again!

It was a little "pricey" for what we got BUT it was during the 4th of July holiday weekend and we were expecting to pay a premium for that. Other than that, everything else was fine.
