Stayed there for a week during August, 2016 when moving back to Maine six years ago, after spending a previous week at the Ranger Inn, also of Bangor, Maine, while searching for an apartment at the height of the tourist season when most all Maine hotels raised their prices, and often had no vacancies. The Ranger Inn was OK, for the price, but the Riverview at similar prices, was a bit nicer, had less trashy renters, and a great view of the river from the hotel porch decks, which had outdoor furniture. Great for enjoying a few beers, light music, and small talk, from a nice outdoor front porch with a scenic view. Sadly, the Riverview had no WI-FI internet which the Ranger Inn had, which was essential for apartment hunting. Internet had to be used at Applebee's as a patron, or the Bangor, Eagles Lodge, or the Bangor VFW. Yes, worth the price, but rooms were first come, first served, as long as vacancies lasted, with NO reservations. The Managers/Staff were great people. Very helpful.

This hotel is super clean, has the best prices in town, the staff is super accommodating and friendly. The tv is old but my room has a toaster oven, fridge, microwave, full set of real dishes, a DVD player, and coffee maker. I would stay here every time I'm in Maine.
