🍒 Playrooms – Here’s where Plush kinda drops the ball. Aside from their SoCal mansion party (which does deliver on the play), hotel takeovers like this don’t guarantee any. There’s no official playroom, no designated sexy zone, nada. That doesn’t mean people aren’t getting it on – it just means you’re gonna have to work for it. Other takeovers often have a “party floor” vibe – open doors, hallway flirts, afterhours chaos. But the Riviera is way too spread out for that. No central hub, no sexy stumble from room to room. If you don’t lock something down on the dance floor and bring them back to your own room? You might be headed home with just your glowsticks and regret.

🛏️ Accommodations – Let’s talk crash pads. The rooms at the Riviera are… fine. Not fabulous, not tragic – just a solid place to peel off your costume and regroup for the next round of debauchery. The beds? Surprisingly comfy, and the generous room size were great for outfit changes, pre-gaming, and, well, post-party cardio. That said, don’t expect boutique hotel sparkle. The vibe is more “retro resort with a little mileage” than glam – think dated decor, the occasional tired carpet, and that faint smell of 1970s celebrity scandal lingering in the drapes. But for a weekend of glitter, gropes, and glowsticks, it got the job done. Bonus – ground-floor rooms near the pool made for easy midday recharges and sexy snack breaks without trekking across the property.
