Ghost hotel.

Restaurant and bar not open. They wanted 16 for breakfast. They offered no coffee and had no creamers because they were locked up. They said it was because we were the only guests at the hotel. This was not true unless people were sneaking into room. There was a card game going on right outside our room. Many abandon rooms with lights on and TVs going and linens torn apart. Almost like something from the shining.

Great time great hotel.

We had a great stay just would have loved the outside pool to be open and complimentary breakfast would have been great. I also haven’t my 100.00 back yet for incidental , but otherwise it was a great time. The restaurant wasn’t open when we went they sent the cook home early because it was dead. Many restaurants around the hotel. Staff made us feel rude at home and made a lot of accommodations for my mom and the boys. We did last minute date changes and they were very accommodating for that and my mom being handicapped. We definitely will be back at n the summer to try out the pool.

Had a wonderful time over Easter weekend. Hotel allowed us to share our egg hunt with other children, we had to take up space . LOL. Hot Tub is always a hit. I had called several times about our Easter Bunny coming and the staff was never like,, Ohh no its that bunny woman calling again ! They were freindly and helpful. My Hubby spent many yrs at this hotel while working with Nor Folk Railroad. It was like going home. The kids played, were safe and we just enjoyed.

This is a hidden gem. We were supposed to stay at a different hotel but that one booked up. We pivoted to Red Lion and were so pleased with our stay. All of the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable stay. We stayed in a room with two king beds which was great since we have 6 and 7 year old. We loved the access to the back patio especially since it was only a few steps away from the fenced in hot tub. The kids loved the pool and the arcade. It was comfortable with a lot to do on the premise which is great for kids. We also liked the location. It was right off 83 and close to a Target, Chick-fil-a, panera, good diner. Don't hesitate to book!

The location was great for a lot of venues. We went to the Great Outdoor Show and the shuttle bus was great. Restaurant on site was good and great to be able to eat without having to go somewhere else at the end of a long day. The pool was very warm, not for some but after walking all day it was great, especially in the winter when i didn't want the the great outdoors. Met many people who were loyal to the hotel. Will stay there again.
