Shocked this little hole in the wall motel had the Red Lion name. Very sketchy location, didn't feel safe. Condition and cleanliness were subpar. Other peoples hair in the tub, stained carpet throughout the hallways. We didn't even entertain their continental breakfast. Putting a red X next to this one to never stay here again.

First off the location is super sketchy. Someone in a run down person car unloading white sheets they look like they bought out Ross and TJmaxx. Found out later they were low on sheet. People hanging out in lobby to watch TV or charge phone that dont have a room there. Drug deals happening in the parking lot. Some guy was scoping out the inside of cars including mine. I have to find out where i can share pictures... there were ants everywhere, including inside the sheets of my bed...a hair tie that didnt belong to me inside the the bed, tub was disgusting. I went down stairs to get new sheet to remake my bed he gave me the sheet that had been bought earlier that day and told me they were brand new..upon grabbing them and walking up stairs a stench of vinegar came from them my husband told me to go get new one again...thinking about it there wansnt enough time to unpack, wash, dry and fold all the sheets..I asked the front desk guy if these were washed he said yes and I said what happened was they were sprayed with vinegar after fluffing them up in the dryer straight from the box. Staff was weird. Especially the breakfast guy..he was talking about how much he looks alot young than 53. He kept creeping on my kids too touched my 5 year old daughters hair twice. Unfortunately I chose this hotel because it was okay priced because we drive up the night before our cruise. I would never stay there again.
