We loved our stay at Casa Riviera. The room was clean, parking was easy, check in and out was easy and our hosts thought of every little detail for what we may need during our stay. We couldn't be happier with choosing to stay there.

Great stay. Excellent location for walking to many restaurants, shops, must see court house and even the pier at beach was within walking distance for my wife and I.
Bed was more comfortable than any other place we have ever stayed at.
Would stay here again.

Very clean and updated rooms, great property with beautiful views, walking distance to State Street bars and restaurants, and a short drive to the beach. I'd book this place again.
The only downside was, in our case, we own a non-Tesla EV, and the chargers in the parking garage didn't work for us.

2nd room booked for another family member was also great. Had balcony on street side and was still quiet and great comfortable bed.
Excellent location for walking to many places to eat for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner.
Numerous other sites within walking distance as well as plenty of shops and even the pier at the beach.
Would definitely stay here again if I was looking for a great central location in town.
