Pictures are misleading

Upon check-in (late at night) given a run down smoking room designated for pets so the smells were atrocious- furniture was marred and scratched. No other rooms available that night. Next night moved us to different room and floor and it was nicer. Had a jacuzzi tub which we used one morning. Next morning they told me that we weren’t supposed to use the tub and had accused us of turning on the plumbing as apparently the tub leaked down two floors unbeknownst to us. (A sign or tape or actually turning the water off would be great starts to communicating maintenance issue). The only saving grace was the maintenance guy who was as kind as could be and also doubled as the night clerk.

Back in the day, this was called Garden Inn. It was funky and run down then. I think they changed the carpet into vinyl and that's it. I was surprised, being under the Red Lion name and thought they'd do more than that. It still has old cigarette burns on the edge of the tub. lol There were ants and some other things, but overall was OK.. the people were nice.

Marginal property

A handicap accessible room not truly accessible. Grab bars present in bathroom, but unable to access shower since it was a tub over shower. The blanket on the bed had a huge hole in it. The continental breakfast was marginal. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The property was not the quality I expect from Red Lion.

Nice stay

The front desk staff is very friendly and helpful. It was fun hanging out with them, chatting, and getting to know them. They made the stay 100% worth while! My only complaint is the room was filled with ants. The bed was comfortable and cleaning staff did a good job of keeping the rooms and building clean (minus the infestation of ants).
