★★★★★
“Wonderful stay in unit 23! The view is stunning. The location is amazing. We walked around the neighborhood often as shopping and cafe’s are very close. Parking is easy. We parked in the parking garage and on the street and had no issues with either. This is our second room at Casa Riviera and I HIGHLY recommend it.”
★★★★★
“I recommend Casa Riviera for anyone who wants an upscale boutique hotel type experience! It's in a safe and quiet neighborhood that is close to State Street and all the wonderful surrounding coffee shops, gift boutiques, and restaurants. Park your car and easily walk to everything!”
★★★★★
“Quiet location with nice view of the mountains. Easy to walk to many restaurants, shops and attractions. Comfortable living area. Beds were very comfortable. Staff was fantastic. Easy check-in and checkout and quickly resolved one minor issue. ”
★★★★★
“We had a great stay at Casa Rivera overall. The rental apartment was clean, comfortable, and matched the listing well. The location and atmosphere made for a really enjoyable trip, and everything we needed was easily accessible. The only minor downside was the air conditioning at night. Around 4am the apartment started to get pretty warm, and it was difficult to keep the room cool through the early morning hours. Aside from that, everything else met expectations and we had a positive experience overall. Would definitely consider staying again.”
★★★★★
“This was second time booking here, true to all photos. Clean, chic & cozy. A thoughtful place with nice touches. We appreciate Zenstay for hosting a lovely stay. Thank you! Five stars! ”
