This is our first time staying in Seaside, Oregon and this is my first time staying at the River Inn at Seaside. I picked this hotel based on popular reviews being rated a 9 out 10 and it is definitely 9 out of 10. I would give it a 10 out of 10 if the elevator was working top notch, but it makes my guests and other hotel guests a lil nervous. The suites are super nice and spacious and the beds are so comfy, i woke up this morning forgetting i was even in the hotel. This is the first hotel i have ever stayed in which they provide plenty of shampoo and conditoner if you forget to bring your own, and there is plenty of hot water for a nice hot shower. Also the pool and spa are fantastic, the pool is much larger than other pools and goes to 5ft deep and the hot tub is spacious enough to fit 6 people. They also have propane fire pits running at night which is awesome, can enjoy the warmth of a fire under the moonlight. The only other reason i wouldnt give it a 10 out of 10 is the parking lot is very tight, great for cars, but not at all ideal for big trucks like mine that is a crew cab standard bed which has some length to it. It would be a nightmare to try to get out of the parking lot at all if you had one with an 8ft bed. But if you have a car and the elevator is good to you, then an easy 10 out of 10. I highly recommend this hotel.
