Very DIRTY hotel
This hotel was terrible. Dirty carpets. Not even vacuumed in hallways. Dirty towels laying outside our room in the floor. Still weren’t picked up when we left. Shower curtain was covered with black mold. The breakfast bar was sticky and dirty. Syrup all over the floor. Also that eating area was not vacuumed. I asked the front desk if anyone was caring for the breakfast are as I couldn’t find anyone. And she said yes. I told her the issues she just shrugged her shoulders and acted like she could care less. The furniture was dirty and stained. The furniture was old and scarred. The office chair had most of the vinyl coming off. The whole place was gross. The beds sheets were clean and it was late so we stayed. The bathroom door when closed looked like a dog chewed through the bottom. The towels were worn out. I wouldn’t go barefoot for anything on the floors. I wish I had taken photos. The toilet wouldn’t flush properly. It made it to the top of places we will NEVER STAY AGAIN.

Bad place.
This is the worst place I have ever stayed. Could not get money back because we booked thru hotels com. They didnt reserve the rooms we paid for & put us in 2 other filthy rooms, very outdated, stained carpets, toilet seat peeling off. Dirty vents. Breakfast was cold eggs, cold bacon, cold potatoes. Holes in curtain liners. Shame on me that I did not read the reviews before booking. Red Lion has usually had a good reputation. This is a disgrace to all other Red Lion hotels.

After staying the night I had to use the bathtub faucet, since the sink was full of water and obviously plugged up which I hadn't noticed the night before. This hotel was probably really nice years ago but has not been remodeled in probably 30 years, so decades of crud built up in the bathroom I noticed. Bed and pillows were awesome and i was exhausted so slept well though.

I was disappointed with my stay at the Red Lion Hotel. Last night, my clothes were stolen from the laundry room, and the overall cleanliness of the hotel was subpar. The cafeteria was especially dirty in the morning, smelling very bad, and no food was left in the pans. Additionally, the bathroom in my room lacked basic amenities like shampoo. I'm very dissatisfied with the experience.

Rooms were falling apart and very short staffed
I stayed for one night with my mother-in-law, and my two children. The first room we were put in, the air conditioner wouldn’t work due to the outlet being broken. The second room, the toilet did not flush at all. The front desk clerk came in with a plunger to see if that helped, but that was a no. This particular room had a lot of the tiny ants and the sink didn’t drain very well. The third and last room we were put in was decent. There were ants still, but not the amount that was in the second room. The front desk clerks were obviously running ragged. Seemed to be very short staffed. There was also a very large group of construction workers staying that night. There was only one person manning the entire breakfast. I feel for the workers that they do have. They definitely worked harder than they probably should have. They all did what they could with what they had but I can absolutely see a lot of bad reviews and complaints based on our one night stay.

My room and a refrigerator and I put my groceries in it for the work week. The next day I came back and it was all bad, it wasn't plugged in, the plug was about 10" from being able to reach the outlet. I reported it twice and asked for $40 discount, it was never addressed. I saw the police there several times, the last night it was for my neighbor. I opened my door to the hallway and it was soaked with dirty toilet water.

There were ants all over the wall and nightstand. When we talked to the front desk They gave us a can of raid. I went back to the room sprayed the night stand and realized there were ants all over in the bed. We then asked to be moved to a different room. The new room had an ac that didn’t work as well as a toilet than ran constantly. The staff was not friendly at all. Breakfast the next day had milk that was over a week expired. The advertised restaurant inside is no longer available. The outside pool was nice.

You may have read a few negative reviews about this property some of which were in the last couple of days; however, we were pleasantly surprised by the overall experience of our stay in spite of previous comments. I won’t lie that the accommodations are a bit older; however, we were satisfied with the cleanliness and spaciousness of the well appointed rooms, larger bathrooms with double sinks, comfortable beds, and the quality of the facilities for the price. The outdoor pool and hot tub were clean and functional, we enjoyed the hot breakfast in the well appointed dining area, and the staff at reception were pleasant and helpful. I hope these comments provide a more balanced perspective and believe that management has made improvements in response to previous reviews. A solid two and a half stars and great value at $160 USD per night.
