Hotel Guest Reviews of the Rio Sands Hotel

Our hotel ratings and reviews are from real hotel guests. Priceline.com ensures that its reviews are guests-only by proactively sending hotel surveys to customers after they've completed their hotel stays. In the post-stay surveys, priceline.com hotel customers are asked a number of questions about their stay and the hotel. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the best, the survey asks guests to rate their overall experience and specifically rate the hotel's cleanliness, staff and location. Priceline.com does not allow site visitors to post unsolicited hotel reviews.

The location is perfect for family beach trip. The beach is a very short walk away. There is a restaurant, deli, and small market across from the beach.

Staff is very accomodating. The pool and hot tub were a great way for family to either relax or play after a long day at the beach. Six of us (2 adults, 4 kids) stayed in the jr suite for 2 nights and enjoyed the trip. We will stay here again.

The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Older than it looks in the photos, and room a bit small for the addition of a futon in the room.

Decent hotel if you are just looking for a place to crash for the night. If you are looking for a more upmarket place, this is not it. Older hotel, could do with some refurbishing...great staff though! Very friendly and helpful.

The pool was salty for some reason (staff told me it's not because of a sea water). But it's good. Bed was Tempur-Pedic, it was a surprise, but I didn't like it much for some reason. Our room was standard King and it had an odd smell when we entered the room (I think it's from a carpet cleaner or so), but we get used to soon. The bathroom was small and only had a stall shower which is very small.Refrigerator and microwave was good amenity for a family. The location is really great where the sand beach is 100 steps away. Overall, good stay. ...read more

I liked that the room, fronts the pool and that there is a lot of space.
I think a hot breakfast would be nice rather than hardboiled eggs, although everything else at breakfast was good.

Friendly staff, convenient and close to beach, restaurants, stores etc

If you are looking for fancy, this is not for you. Staff is excellent, beach practically out the door. Restaurants, deli, coffee places all walking distance. Great for families wanting beach holiday!

Location, King rooms are in a quiet building, clean room.
Poor air circulation, because sliding door can't be kept ajar securely.

The motel appears to be well maintained over the years. The memory foam bed is comfortable, bathroom was clean, bathroom fan worked well, good amount of storage, appreciate the courteous staff.
