River Inn at Seaside

Location and the room was nice.

Back in March, on a whim, my husband and I chose to take a little overnight trip, and we chose River Inn. Our first experience at the hotel was so nice we chose to come back to celebrate our anniversary trip. When we booked through booking.com, we had let the hotel know it was our anniversary not really sure if anything was going to happen, but I figured I'd mention it. When we checked in it was the same nice gentleman at the front as it was in March. I happened to mention how much I loved the cookies they serve in the lobby after 4 and one of the guys in the front told me what brand they were. So we make our way up to our room and they had set out some candy, a card and towels in a heart swan on our bed for us 🥹. That little gesture was so absolutely nice. We did enjoy the pool and hot tub later that evening which was pleasant and relaxing. The next day we went on a hike and when we came back the front desk guys gave me a print out of the cookies so I got the right ones like that was beyond nice of him to do that. Enjoyed the hot tub again for a little while after the hike and swan paddle boats we definitely needed that soak. The hot water and pressure in the shower was great. Bed was comfortable. Tv picture was crisp Free cookies 10 out of 10 We absolutely will be repeat customers.

It was a beautiful location. We got to see the beach from our room. The coffee cups for sale were amazing. The convenience of taking my dogs with me. My sister loved the pool. They were central to where we had to go. It was nice they had movies and books. Staff was friendly. They had a dog welcoming basket and dishes for them. They even had poop bags.

The manager was friendly when we arrived. The pool could have used more chairs/tables for the towels. The beds were comfortable and the room was clean. The breakfast was decent, more protein options would be amazing. During spring break the breakfast time got a little chaotic. My family loved the game room and the fire pits. They had a lot of options nice your at the motel for the night. Definitely kid friendly.

Breakfast was provided down in the lobby for free which was a deciding factor along with price against other hotels in area. It was all breads and cereal. It would have been nice to have some sort of protein available however. Hard boiled eggs were available, but I did not want that. The beds in my room, 413 were very comfortable, but right next door in my sister in laws room, 411 they were not comfortable at all.
