Room was nice, quiet the night I was there. Had all amenities needed?. Snack, drink and ice available. Check-in was smooth. Cable TV, mini-fridge, coffee all included in toom. The breakfast is grab and go style, which I did not partake so can't advise as to how good it was.
Only issue I encountered was lack of enough hot water for shower in morning.

ask for a none smoking handicapped room but the room reeked of cigarette smoke mentioned this to desk clerk she acted as if it irritated her said that was only room available she was not well-groomed beds were not good i ask her why did they not have fox news on their tv she said we don't care for fox news around here i said well what about your guest that did she gave me a dirty look and gave my receipt and never said thank you or come back again (she will never have me as a guest again ) would not recommend this establishment !!
Room was very clean. Everything you need for an overnight stay. Good bed. Hot shower. Big enough TV and cable service. Fast free WIFI. Recently painted. Newer, quiet AC. Small table and chairs. Microwave. We will stay there again.
Most websites including Trip advisor say no rooms available. Book directly thru them.
One small disappointment. I had called ahead to make sure I would have the ability to plug in a charger outside for my boat batteries. Was assured they did. They had outlets alright but they did not work. Only spent one night but had considered two. Would have been an issue if we had stayed for another day of fishing.
I've been visiting family in the area for 20 years, and used to stay at Northend, but when they changed hands, I decided to stay here. I was apprehensive due to the proximity to The Hitchin' Rail, but figured I could stand it for one night. I stayed with my 3 year old daughter who is a VERY light sleeper. I was pleasantly surprised by the quiet, clean facility. While we didn't avail ourselves of the continental breakfast so I can't speak to that, I was very surprised to see it offered in this price range. I'm going down again this weekend, and that's where we'll be staying. Jason, you and your team do an excellent job of making people feel welcome!
We stayed here for one night after floating on the current river. The prices were great, but you really do get what you pay for here. My husband, daughter, and I had one room with my parents stayed in the room next door. Our smoke detector went off in the middle of the night for no apparent reason. We had to disconnect it to get back to sleep. When I told the front desk the next morning their response was, "Oh yeah we know. They've all been doing that. We keep changing the batteries, but can't figure it out." My parent's room already had their smoke detector disconnected (I would assume for similar reasons.) While our room appeared clean, my parents had many bugs in their room on the walls and in the bathroom. It was livable for one night at this price, but I probably wouldn't stay here again.
The Rocky River Inn was opened as a Days Inn ~ 25 years ago. After visiting, one might assume that the Days Inn revoked the franchise from its owner(s). How bad must conditions be for the Days Inn to revoke a franchise??? Check out room 114 and find out!
Your breath will be taken away upon entering the room; the smell of mold permeates the air. You'll find the mold all over the prints hanging above the worn out beds. The conditions are ideal for the many flies that join you for a long, disturbing night of unrest. Bottomline, this facility hasn't been touched outside of changing the shower curtains in the last 25 years. The furniture is stained and beat-up, the linens are soiled and the carpet is likely the source of the mold and damp air.
It's unfortunate that the owners are milking this property for cash from folks floating the Current River. They should be forced to spend a night in the rooms they've ignored for 25 years while counting their money. People deserve better. Do yourself a favor - drive to Poplar Bluff and stay somewhere fit for human occupancy.
