The hotel staff were very pleasant and the lobby is nice, the pool was not swimmable, despite being open, and the rooms and hallway are very old and need refreshing. things appear to be clean however need desperately to be updated, walking down to the pool was scary maze, drywall hallways, and untended court yards.

Everyone like to be treated well by staff. They were excellent. Helpful and quick to respond. The continenral breakfast was ok, and staff made sure late comers still had options for breakfast. They did good for what the hotel chooses to serve. Building is older but kept as well as can be. It's the hotel that should look at updating the facility. I think there is an expectation when you see Red Lion Inn that if not kept up their reputation will go down hill.

Everything was great minus the pool not being in service. Which is why we wanted to stay there. It’s a real bummer for the kids.

Reserved a room that had 3 beds. Unit was already occupied. Management accomodated with a roll-away bed and a hide-a-bed, in addition to a king bed. All 3 of us got a great night's sleep! Staff went above and beyond!

Needs to be updated. The walls are so thin you can hear your neighbors and every single noise in the hall. So hard to sleep and the beds were uncomfortable.

Valentine’s Day disaster!!!

Hotels.com needs to update their description of this property!!!! We booked this hotel for our 25th Valentines weekend trip and found out after checking in that the hotel restaurant and lounge were closed! Then, later we were told the pool was also closed and have been for quite awhile!!! I am very disappointed in your customer service center as well. I tried contacting hotels.com via virtual chat and by calling, both were unsuccessful at reaching anyone regarding the situation!!!! Do better!!!

Satisfactory option

Was able to stay comfortably with my pup. I appreciated that the placed us close to the dog area to make potty breaks quick and easy. Staff was pleasant when contacted and overall was about average for a hotel; no major complaints but no wow factor. Work station in the room was nice other than the hookups weren’t convenient or easy to access. Minor thing but the hot water from the insulated carafe in the lobby at checkin(4p) was barely above room temp; on a cold snowy day that was disappointing.
