Garment rack on the wall was coming off. Everything looked tired. Beds were clean and crisp. It was a last minute booking due to air traffic troubles. Shuttle van also was lacking working seat belts. Cracked seats.

The checkin staff are great. Friendly and accommodating. Building and rooms are older and it shows especially in the bathrooms. Some need more TLC than others. Beds are clean and comfortable. It is quiet. Nice to have a place on site to grab a quick basic meal.

Everything was wonderful and the young lady that my husband and I met at the front desk had such great customer service, She made the experience of staying at Red Lion the most memorable one. Please forgive me, I don't remember her name, just her face.

My original room had a mold smell that would take you out of here you could not breathe. The room was not in good condition. The second room was not two clean but better than the first room which they said it was an upgrade but it really wasn’t the condition just wasn’t as bad as the first one. The problem with the second room on the fourth floor was it smelled like gas it was so strong it had me lightheaded and couldn’t inhale I told the maintenance men and one said he knew they called someone and they came out and said it wasn’t a problem and it only smelled like that because the boiler room was on that floor. I said there are boiler rooms in all buildings and it is not leaking gas smells if so something is wrong. But management was nice and gave me my money back. I did not stay there I left the hotel immediately with my family.

The area is really busy with foot traffic which wasn't a problem because no one bothered us at night.Plus some guy sitting in the lobby warning us about the prostitution that goes on at night....My main concern with the hotel would be the roaches that came out from behind the TV mount and room 1334. We were moved to room 1119 same issues more small baby roaches crawling across the bed and walls. At this point I had already driven many hours and wanted to lay down so I stayed until 7am my daughter on the other hand left in the middle of the night due to the bugs. Which she was the only reason I came to town was to visit. The hotel needs little improvement with bugs and cleanness. I would not recommend to anyone.
