Jaimes was very nice as i cancelled my second night cause we felt unsafe. And you have random people driving thru the hotel parking and you have apartments surrounding the property so you have all kinds of people everywhere.

Unsafe is the best word to describe this location. I was so disappointed and shocked this was a Red Lion location! I couldn't sleep due to fear and the noise you could hear on every floor. The front desk associate acted like he couldn't care less about our stay or safety. We couldn't get in our room with the keys for 10 minutes and he had to come help, not so willingly. There were crowds of people smoking in the parking lot and they looked like they'd seen better days. There was dog poop everywhere outside. The TV on the room didn't work. It was awful!

Never Again!
Never again. This place was as seedy as it gets. Checked into our room and it smelled horrible like cigarettes. So bad I went back to the desk and switched rooms. Second room didn’t smell like cigarettes and seemed cleaner but there was no ice bucket liner and the tissue dispenser was empty. One of the two keys didn’t work. The parking lot was covered in garbage and where we had to park behind the hotel had homeless and obviously drug addicts hanging out. Looked like crack central. The evening was horrible as there were cars with load rap music blaring outside and people talking and yelling and then the motorcycles started to rev there engines up and down at 2:00 in the morning. Did not feel safe with my wife and son here at all but we just stayed locked in our room until we left early the next morning. The room was non refundable and we checked in later so decided to just ride it out. Beware of this place at all costs.

Had outside people coming in building and knocking on my door 4 times thruout the night! Felt unsafe. No phone to call office, no phone number to call the office any way?? Almost had to call 911. My guess is that they wanted something illegal.

The staff was friendly. Door handle was broken and called down to get it fixed. It never did get fixed. Breakfast was very limited. There were some shady looking characters in the area. Wasn’t a terrible experience. A few tweaks and it would’ve made a huge difference

There was no security measures in the room beyond a deadbolt. The usual hydraulic bar was gone, and there was no bar latch across the door. The parking in the back often had a bunch of people just sitting in their cars smoking. Our room door handle also was barely functional

The hotel clerk Jamie was great, super helpful. The room unfortunately was dirty. The floor was not mopped, there was hair in the towels, the towels stained, the bed sheets and blanket was covered in stains. The hallway smelled like old cigarette smoke, thankfully our room didn’t. We wouldn’t stay here again, the whole hotel needs a renovation and good clean.

Once again, you get what you pay for. Linens were clean. Room smelled like pot. There were crackpot burn stains on floor and tub. The toilet had, lets say, fluids left behind from precious guests dried on the seat and back of lid. Floors were damaged and trip hazard from lifted floor planks. Didnt even want to sit my luggage on the chair.
