Our room experienced a plumbing issue before we arrived and there were no other rooms available because of the holiday weekend. The staff were kind enough to arrange a room at an alternative hotel close by and paid the difference in the cost of rooms. Very responsible.

The check in/out process was so quick and easy. Our room was great with a full kitchen, and lots of space with a view of the pool. The motel was right across the street from the start of the river float and super close to the beach and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again.

The suites need a really good cleaning!
The cupboard handles need to be cleaned in the kitchens of both Suite #5 & Suite #18, they are joined to the bottom of each cupboard door. The staff were friendly, helpful and courteous. The sofa and foot stool need to be cleaned, in Suite #5 We sat on towels on top of the sofa, didn't even touch the foot stool. In suite #18, The inside of the kitchen cupboards and drawers need cleaning, stains and some crumbs in them! Due to a plumbing problem before we arrived we spent one night in Suite #5, on the first floor. and one night in Suite #18 on the 2nd floor. I'm afraid of heights and Suite #18 is on the 2nd floor with the open metal stairs outside, and no elevator! I had a very difficult time getting up and down to Suite #18l I had to hang on to the back of my husband and try not to look down while going up and down the stairs. We had specifically asked for a ground floor suite, but we couldn't get one on the 2nd night due to a plumbing problem at the hotel. It was most unfortunate for me, with a fear of heights. The pool was great. I wish I had taken photos. Sandra & Sidney Reeve

My stay at Riverside Motel is the most ripped off I have ever felt as a consumer. Buyers beware: do not pay anything over one-star motel prices to stay here. I am ashamed to say that I paid $288 a night to stay at this dump, for 5 nights! They completely took advantage of me, and when I approached the owner about the extreme elevation in rates, he looked at me and said "well you paid it!" Backstory: I was in Penticton for a cycling race, so naturally the weekend of the race was marked up quite high. All the hotels in the area jacked their rates up, to be expected I guess... But when I decided that I would stay past the race days to explore the area, I extended my days over the phone with the owner. He failed to tell me that on quieter, off-days in the summer, this motel is about $140 /night max. I didn't think to ask. I was foolish and naive. Here are the things that are horrible with this motel and barely worth even $100 /night: - Tiny, computer monitor TV - Super loud AC unit that was very difficult to sleep to - Very dated bathroom - No cream or sugar or extra coffee, and a broken coffee maker - Barely any housekeeping -- they made the beds but didn't clear dishes or clean anything - Garbage in the alley and on the steps to our room, left there for several days - Scary back alley. Very sketchy. - Dirty, dated pool area. If I had paid a fair price for this motel, or if mgmt had of offered me some reimbursement, I would not have left this review. Beware!

This is an older fully renovated motel from the 60s, the type of place my parents took me. Every suite is poolside or overlooks it. Lots of kids having fun, but when the pool shuts down it's dead quiet and the beds are comfy. Two short blocks (or less) to the beach.
