I loved the fast access to the beach and everything was within walking distance.

Yania United States of America

Loved the location, close to everything - beach, food, shopping, and entertainment on the boardwalk! The pool was also very nice!

Sharon United States of America

The Rideau was a really nice stay, i upgraded the room to the pool view, the beds were big and comfortable, we slept on sheets i brought because i read many reviews that said hotels dont wash the comforters often, however the bed appeared very clean, there was soap and shampoo/conditioner in the shower in case you forget yours. The floor was laminate so no nasty carpet, the location is awesome, the staff were nice. If you want a clean nice place to stay choose this hotel.

Becky United States of America

Complimentary coffee. Elevator, carts to carry luggage. Most of all I enjoyed my conversations with the Owner Chelsea. She was so nice and i Didn't want to say it when I was there because I didn't know if it was appropriate but she has beautiful eyes and a great personality.

Martin United States of America

The room was good sized, clean, and the location is excellent, it is located right on the boardwalk very close to all the main attractions. property also has a good sized pool that was very well maintained.
