The Extras
Riverwood
Recording Studios features a
lounge area for the “off duty” crew that includes a refrigerator and
coffee machine (for you all-nighters). Also, as creatures of
comfort,
we figured we would let you know just what else we feature in the
Riverwood
neighborhood...
Accommodations
Yep,
we got ‘em. Right across the street is the Red Roof Inn, featuring
clean, comfortable rooms, a cool underground lounge and a mere 2-minute
walk from our door. Discount rates are available for Riverwood Guests
coming to the area. Just give us a holler a day or two before and we’ll
fix you up good.
Restaurants
Within
a block of Riverwood Recording Studios, we have several eateries to
choose from, including seafood houses, burger joints and cocktail
lounges for those after-session sessions.
Instrument
Sales and Repairs
Need
strings? Picks? Cables? A 1967 Guild Starfire? They’re all right next
door at The
Guitar Guy, a neighboring sales and repair facility in our
building. Run by Paul Unkert (The Guitar Guy), his staff of expert
repair guys will have you back in business in no time. Drop by and say
hello...he's right up the hall!
Convenience
Riverwood Recording Studios is located less than a mile east of Exit 81
on the Garden State Parkway, so we are very easy to get to.
