RiverTree Inn

When we arrived at the lobby, it smelled like stale cigarette smoke. The outside was rundown looking. I was concerned if our room was going to smell like the lobby, which I commented to the front desk check in person. The room was better, but as the night progressed, I could smell the stale odor in the bedding (pillow/blankets). The tub shower enclosure was not clean looking and the air conditioner ran all night on high trying to keep the room somewhat comfortable. It was very noisy. Neither my wife nor I slept well on this first night of our two night reservation. We had a non-refundable reservation, and for the first time in 30+ years, we decided to drive five hours back home instead of staying the second night due to the motel being so unpleasant and uncomfortable. We called at 6:45pm on the second night of our reservation and asked if they had vacancy. They said no. We then asked if the room that was booked for us was currently being occupied and was told yes. Rivertree should not have rented our room, when we had paid for it. Rivertree made the decision to not refund our money, even though they were not harmed financially by us leaving early. Hence the reason for this review.

This place is beat up and needs a full overhaul. Old looking shabby room including old sheets and towels. Bare minimum necessities and the room was never cleaned. The front desk area has been upgraded but they really need to keep going. Repairs, paint, new furniture, carpets and so on.

Wow! We were so impressed by this inn. The staff was extremely friendly, the breakfast had eggs, potatoes, oatmeal, cereal, yogurt, etc as well as some delicious biscuits and gravy. The suite we got for an incredibly affordable price had a twisting stairwell that led to a bed on the top level, for some privacy from the children. The suite also included a kitchen with a fridge, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and the tools necessary for cooking a meal. The beds were comfortable and the room was nice and warm. 10 out of 10 we have loved our stay!!

The room was clean, the air conditioning worked, the WiFi was OK. The mattress was a bit on the soft side. The breakfast was adequate; scrambled eggs, biscuits, tangerines and bananas, good coffee, Costco muffins. Didn't use the swimming pool, but it looked OK. Friendly staff.

We stayed in room 127, a large clean room, near the outside pool. Excellent hot and cold breakfast, eggs with/ without ham, very good coffee. The morning front desk person is great, super friendly, a lot of local information. Within minutes to our boat tour…. Thank you…

My wife and I were pleasantly surprised by the good repair and cleanliness of our room. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful in sharing knowledge about local restaurants. The breakfast offered standard fare and the buffet and seating area were clean. Overall, I found Rivertree Inn and Suites to be a very good value and I would stay here again if I find myself needing a room in the Clarkson/Lewiston area.
