Sweet suite. Very comfy - more luxury than a simple girl could need. Also, I just want to mention as a photographer, I appreciate the B&W photo prints they always have in their rooms. Very tasteful...and even exudes traces of romanticism. Cool, social scene at the bar area in the lobby; beautiful open lobby area. Although this hotel is aesthetic and comfortable, I'd have to say that my stay was so pleasant just for its amazing staff. For one, as I tried to figure out how to use the computer in their very small business lounge, F&B staff, Rick came out and went the extra mile to assist me. It isn't something related to his department but he attempted to assist me with my needs the best he could....even so much so that he came up to the Concierge lounge on the 12th floor to follow up and check that I could get online. Thank you Rick! Next, Maria in the concierge lounge has to be the most friendly woman in Riverside. She even let me stay an hour past closing because I had so much work to do....she said she still had to clean up. I adore that woman! Then Luke from the kitchen sent up my room service and he was jovial, friendly and we even conversed for a minute on motorcycles. Really nice guy. The only thing is maybe the food could use some improvement...I ordered soup (beef vegetable) that was so salty. I hope the hotel becomes more health conscious with their foods in regards to additives. But I so appreciate the 5-star friendliness and hope these employees are recognized for their naturally warm personalities. Hope to see everyone again! Thank you!
