Yeah, the Roland has a tape delay and a small spring reverb.
I like the Roland, I've owned it for many years. Never changed a tape, or had any particular problems with it. I think the reverb packed up at one point.
It may have been a loose wire or something. My usual tech at the time fixed it very quickly and cheaply.
The reverb is very limited, more of a dub effect than something that simulates a sense of space.
The tape delay is superb though.
I think it's a great machine to own, especially if you combine it with another reverb FX unit when you want something a bit more flexible.
