The heat did not work in the rooms I stayed in. They moved me from one room because the heater did not work and the fan only blew cold air, but then the second room’s heating system did not work either.

Service friendly, rooms filthy and disgusting
Initially, I want to acknowledge that the individual who checked me in was quite friendly and professional. Upon realizing that the heat in our initial room 567 was not functioning, coupled with the loud and disruptive arguments from the neighboring room that continued well past 10 p.m., we were subsequently relocated to room 767. That room was filthy, yet it was 11 and we were exhausted! It appears that the area under the beds has been neglected for quite some time. there was dog food and food crumbs behind the main door. The tub had some dark residue that washed down when my significant other showered. The chair appeared untouched and dusty for weeks, while the entire room was cluttered with mothballs and debris. After just an hour of walking around before bed, our white socks were completely black. The individual, I believe her name was Destiny, checked me out, was very sincere with her apologies, and promptly got on the phone to the head housekeeper. I did share a few photos with her.

Downtowner was a downer
It's a tired hotel in a tired part of town. From the broken front door to the awkward layout, it was totally unwelcoming. Had to rouse a front desk clerk to check in. Breakfast the next morning the attendant mostly gone. She never greeted anyone, much less walk around offering coffee or hello. The room was clean. Guess that was enough.

The room had a muggy, stale smell to it. The floor did not look clean, especially under the bed - tons of dirt. The screen door on the patio barely opened and shut. The outside of the hotel was not taken care of- the trash can outside the door was full the entire time we were there and people were putting trash next to the trash can. We are very unhappy with our experience and will not be staying again.

This place is not well staffed. There were at least eight people lined up to check in, at 3 PM when Management knows a lot of people are going to be checking in. However there was just one person serving customers while numerous office/management people walked by completely oblivious. At one point I needed a glass I asked the bartender for one and he would not give me one. I’m OK

What happened to you Red Lion?
At check-in I found that the front desk worker had written my credit card number and expiration date down on a piece of paper after I had called it into her for an update. It was still on the counter unattended when I got there to check in. Our room was not great. The bed was terrible and the AC unit made a clanging noise when the fan reached a certain speed. On the first night, we left the room for a dinner and came back to find out key cards did not work. We were on the 3rd floor above THE RESIDENTS WHO LIVE ON THE SECOND FLOOR FULL TIME. I Called the front desk but no answer. I walked down to the front desk and was told, there was some mistake and he made me new keys. The rest of the stay seemed fine but RL used to be a hotel to be proud of staying at. This place was old, carpets had been through hell, hotel room doors looked like they had been soaked in water at one point. All of them were bloated and cracked. Don’t let the pictures fool you, this place has zero luxury left in it.
