The hotel’s location was perfect. We came for the Riverside The Festival Of Lights, and it was 2 blocks away frim the event. The hotels condition was okay. We got a room all the way to the top floor. No other room was there other than ours. The windows were open when we got to our room. The room has a musty weird smell. The carpet was old, dirt stains, and sticky feeling if you tried to walk bare feet. We were close to the street, and it was very loud even when the windows were closed. I had to wear ear plugs, and even that didn’t help. I’m glad that we only booked it for 1 day. There’s other hotels in the area that’s well known. It’ll cost a lot of money to stay there, but I’m sure you’ll get a better rest and comfort. I guess, if your looking for a hotel that’s not too expensive for a day stay, and it’s in a good location.. Santa Cruz Inn Riverside was okay.
