When they were out of half their menu, I decided not to eat there and just sit with my husband who ordered a coffee. She came to our table to lecture us on why we had said we were getting a sandwich then changed our minds. Blamed us for starting to make sandwiches we never officially ordered or payed for (my husband is allergic to pork, and they were out of alternatives so we decided against it). What kind of customer service is that?

Just as well since the table i sit at is so wobbly i couldn't set down a drink and certainly couldn't work at it. As the coffee order is delivered to the person i am meeting, the waitress again does not say a word. Maybe they just don't want to wake the only othe people in there, one sleeping at a table and another on the couch.

She was friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. She went above and beyond when we asked for a New Year's Eve party recommendation. She also gave us the printed Riverview Art Walk pamphlet (the outlined history of architectural pieces is not to be missed, although the Al Capone bar is not yet listed and no mention was made of the fabulous ships-in-bottles) and provided us with a tour of the Sultan room with it's magnificent antiques. Our suite was clean and well appointed. I did check the sheets and mattress and found none of the issues mentioned in previous reviews. Paint seemed fresh and Yvette mentioned that new carpets are to be installed in 2026. It seems that the current owners are attempting to revitalize the hotel and event center. We also enjoyed our river view room. Although we could see the train tracks, they did not appear to be in use and we were never bothered by noise. The view provided a good vantage for New Year's Eve fireworks - which may or may not have been publicly sanctioned. The adjacent mall is still under-occupied but we didn't sense any obvious criminal activity and our car was just fine in the parking lot. We had a good time here and would recommend.
