Not worth the cost

In an industrial area. Room was small and cramped. Active railroad created noise issue. Staff was great.

This uniquely structured hotel provides an interesting experience. It’s tucked away behind a residential area along with a plaza that has about ten suites. It’s tucked between a small industrial building that appeared to be a brewery and a railroad track. Depending upon the position of your room, the train passes by within yards of the hotel. A tiny baggie of ear plugs were placed on the nightstand, and the baggie was stapled to a note about the noise from the train. My room was very compact but had all the necessities. The best things going were the friendly staff, the amazing aroma in the lobby and lounge, and the hotel’s restaurant ($$$).

Train track VERY close to hotel rooms. 4 trains came by throughout the night! Very loud! A man was walking down the train track, clearly out of his mind and carrying a machete. Rooms very small. Elevators slow and hot. Definitely not worth the boutique hotel price!

Loved our stay at Rivet House and will definitely go back! It had a very charming eclectic vibe. The rooms were well appointed with comfortable beds and nice showers. All the staff we encountered from Valet to front desk personnel were very courteous and friendly. I’ve heard great things about the onsite Italian restaurant although we did not dine there on this trip.
