Riviera Roadsite Motel, Joplin

The Riviera Roadsite Motel has been closed and is being demolished. They are building a new Sonic on the site.

We think this place is great.. We have stayed here 3 or 4 times and although it is older, it is very clean. The room was large and the bath was a good size. The people who work here are extremely nice and it's right across the street from a Starbucks. What more could you want.

Dirty! Gross, was afraid to touch anything. Walls are very thin and was kept up most of the night by a tatto parrty! Yuck yuck yuck

The motel is vintage and while the appointments aren't luxurious the rooms are spacious and I really enjoyed the combination bathroom/dressing room. Rooms have been clean and well-kept on my two previous stays. I have had no trouble with my wireless laptop connection. I've stayed twice and am getting ready to make a reservation for a third stay. The staff interactions I had were courteous and professional. This is not, nor does it pretend to be, a top tier hotel. I would recommend to the budget-conscious traveler looking for a large, clean room for under $50.

This hotel advertised WiFi on their marquee and on a highway billboard, but when I got there they couldn't deliver the WiFi. The rooms were beat up, especially the linoleum in the bathroom, and their price for a "single" means one person, not two people sharing one bed. All in all, a bad experience but calling the Chamber of Commerce in Joplin didn't do any good...couldn't reach a live human being there. Sure glad I can write a review on the internet, because demanding a partial refund for no WiFi did no good at all.

This older property is all ground level. These rooms have obviously been updated. Carpet, furniture, TV and bed in the room we stayed in were new. We thought it was nice and a good value. Staff was friendly.
