Reviews and Ratings
I had high hopes for Hotel Riverside due to its close proximity to Baga, but my experience was quite disappointing. The rooms were in poor condition with cleanliness issues, and the lack of amenities was frustrating. The service was lacking, with rude staff and limited breakfast options. It might have some potential being close to the beach, but I can't recommend this place based on my stay.
During my stay, I found the hotel to be in a fantastic location right by the river and close to Baga Beach. While the room was spacious and clean, I experienced significant issues with dampness and hygiene that made my stay uncomfortable. The overall dining experience was satisfactory, but I felt there were limited options for breakfast. Overall, there's potential here, but improvements are needed in housekeeping and room conditions.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel mainly for its excellent location, just a short walk from Baga Beach and right next to a lovely river. The rooms were spacious and clean, which made my stay comfortable, but I did have some issues with cleanliness and service that left me wanting more. The dining area had a relaxing view but the breakfast options were quite limited. Overall, it's a decent choice if you're okay with a few drawbacks.
I stayed at this hotel and while it has some positive aspects like good food and a nice location near Baga Beach, the experience was marred by cleanliness issues and lack of proper service. The ambiance is pleasant, especially the dining area, but room hygiene was disappointing, and there were issues with ants and hot water. Overall, I would reconsider staying here again due to these drawbacks.
I had a mixed experience at this guesthouse. The location is really nice, right by the river and close to Baga Beach, which is definitely a strong point. However, the service left a lot to be desired; they didn’t seem very attentive, and some basic amenities weren't provided. Overall, it felt like a place with potential that needs better management and attention.
I recently stayed at Riverside Guest House, which boasts a stunning riverbank location near Baga Beach. While the garden restaurant and pool were lovely, I unfortunately encountered significant issues with my room, which was damp and in need of refurbishment. Additionally, the service from the managers was lacking when I sought assistance. Although the location is peaceful and there’s potential for a great experience, the room quality was a major downside.
The Riverside Guest House is a charming spot located on the riverbank, making for stunning views and a relaxed atmosphere. Rooms vary, with some needing refurbishment, but the overall ambiance is lovely. The staff is welcoming, and the dining experience by the river is enjoyable. However, issues with dampness in some rooms and lack of proper room service detract from the overall experience.
I had a somewhat disappointing experience at this hotel. The location next to River Baga is great, offering beautiful views, but the service left a lot to be desired. The unmaintained and old rooms didn't help either. I would look for somewhere else next time, despite the appealing surroundings.
The Riverside Guest House is located right by the river, creating a peaceful atmosphere away from the hustle of Baga while being close enough to easily walk to the beach. My experience was mixed: while the staff were generally friendly, the room I was given was not up to par, with significant issues like dampness and inadequate cleanliness. The dining options were enjoyable, but there were concerns about the safety deposit handling. Overall, it was a bit of a letdown, especially considering its potential.
