Housekeeping is no longer on a daily basis. Most times we had to call for more clean towels. The food in the food court is not very good except for the pizza and breakfast items. The soda machines were empty way too often as was the ice machines. This has been our 8th time staying at Riverside but the quality of the facility has gone down. French Quarter was so much nicer, especially the pool that was so beautiful & colorful. The food court was so much nicer & cleaner too. We would consider staying there instead of Riverside when we return next year.

The property was great and the staff was so accommodating. Kudos to all of the staff. The only issue was that the bed was high and no real comfortable chair in the room. There were two chairs but one person in the party was not able to get in a bed so had to sleep in the chairs and they were not comfortable for them.

Disney Resorts are the best for the magic, proximity, and convenience for transportation! Always have a great time there! The Royal guest room is a must when going to Riverside! The beignets from the French quarter are one of the best I ever tried!! Thanks for the sweet memories!

I love the theming of the hotel and the bus transportation to the theme parks. My room was comfortable. The walls are thin. The person in the next room was doing jumping jacks and it sounded like a pounding.

I liked the layout of the property and the available transportation to activities. Friendly staff in the Food Court. I did not feel the room service was a good as I had hoped. For the amount of money, I would have thought that the room would be serviced each day. The cream for coffee was never re-stocked in my room and the sheets were not changed for the whole stay.

Disappointing stay
There was a really nice fireplace in the lobby however one person arranged all the empty chairs in front of the fireplace and was verbally aggressive about not letting anyone else sit there to enjoy the fireplace. When I mentioned this to 2 Disney staff one of them stated that she could do this. So disappointing!

Staff was extremely rude including the cleaning and front desk crew. Room was too small, dated, dark and not worth the price per night. Will never stay or recommend this place.

Very spread apart. Did enjoy the boat to Disney Springs and bus to Magic Kingdom but I saw many more All Star buses come by than Port Orleans. Room was clean. Would definitely recommend just bring walking shoes.
