Riviera Beach House

8/10 Good
"It's cute, clean and the staff is very friendly. It has lots of cute nooks to hang in and games to play. However, do not expect any type of space in your room. It's tiny. Well designed, but teeny tiny. The bathroom is even tinier. Feels as though the entire bathroom is inside the shower. Interesting concept, but not very comfortable. Location is excellent."
