Riva hotel guide. Hilton Hotels hotel in Riva, Maryland

"I used to stay here often a year ago. It was a nice hotel, but now it reeks of weed. I stayed two nights, and on exiting the elevator, one is hit with a wall of skunk weed smells. I asked for a room at the end of the hallway, but it made little difference. Twice, I had to place a towel at the foot of my room's door and open the window to clear the air of the pervasive smells of weed. Although the staff is very pleasant, they don't seem interested in doing something about the non-smoking policy. So, if you don't mind sleeping in a place that smells like a sketchy part of town, by all means, stay here. It wasn't this way before, and the awful smells are tolerated now."

"Staff were so friendly and helpful. Breakfast up here was wonderful "

"It worked for what I needed! It’s a little ways outside of downtown DC the drive is doable."

"Ignore the bad reviews! This place is awesome and affordable. There was always someone at the front desk, the hot tub was hot, the bed was super comfy, there were extra blankets in the room. I will be back. Only ring of truth was the breakfast, but a bagel or toast, cereal and fruit were fine for us!"

"The hotel is really old. It feels darker than it should be because of the colors, poor lighting, old elevators. Our first room smelled of cigarette smoke. The second room was better, but the smell in the hallways and rooms was old and musty. Not much fresh or circulated air."

" Honestly, I’m still not sure whether to laugh or be baffled by my breakfast experience here. For $19.99, the buffet is pretty bare-bones: just your basic scrambled eggs, bacon, waffles, sausage, and some fruit. It's fine if you just want something quick, but the real entertainment was the service. Things got weird when we wanted toast. Apparently, the butter and cream cheese are kept under lock and key. When the staff member brought over the butter—retrieved as if it were a highly classified document from a secure vault—I asked for some cream cheese for the two of us. You could practically feel the hostility. She came back with exactly *one* packet. When I asked for one more, the look she gave me made it feel like I was asking for her actual kidney. She brought it, but the heavy sigh was loud enough to hear across the room. Even the juice is under lockdown and only dispensed at her discretion. The funniest part was at the end of the meal. I had the absolute audacity to want a second piece of toast, so I asked for one last cream cheese packet (which would have brought our total to two packets for the two of us). She flatly told me, "No more." As if we'd somehow blown through the table's cream cheese quota for the day. If you are looking for a relaxing, all-you-can-eat breakfast, I'd skip this one. But if you want a $20 masterclass in dairy rationing, it’s certainly an unforgettable experience. "

"Lovely hotel with big rooms and beds. The only issue is the bedside clock. It had wrong time which couldn't be changed."

"Very comfortable. No issues "

"Nice and clean room,"
