Ich wusste nicht, dass man gezwungen ist, eine Kreditkarte zu haben, selbst wenn das Zimmer bereits vorab bezahlt wurde. Ohne die Hilfsbereitschaft andere Hotelgäste, hätte ich über Nacht das Hotel verlassen müssen als allein reisende Frau in einem fremden Land, den so sind die Vorschriften. Da kann das Hotel noch so sauber sein, die Vorgehensweise finde ich unzumutbar, denn ich hatte ausreichend Bargeld dabei. Weiterhin ist es schwierig ein Hotel zu beurteilen, wenn man gerade erst angekommen ist. Bisher war ich nur am beinahe missglückten Empfang. Es wäre sinnvoller, nach der Abreise eine Beurteilung abzufragen.

This was only for a few hours of a flight layover. The room smelled musty and the bathroom old and dilapidated even though it was remodeled. I will not be staying there again.

My Stay at the Red Lion Hotel

My Overall Stay was Good. They Charge a Extra $75 fee I Guess for Incidental Stuff ( In Case there's some Room Damage Etc ) So I'll be Looking to See How Long it takes to get that Back on my Card. And they Charge the Entire Amount of your Stay During the Check In Process ( Which I Guess is a Sign of the Time's that We're Living in. But my Room was Good Overall, and I Didn't have to Deal with Noisey Neighbors. The Staff was Courteous and Helpful for the Most Part.

Decent value for the cost

While it is an older property there is obvious new carpet and furnishings. The hot tub has been filled in and is a giant planter. The pool was dirty. The fitness room was broken and they sent us to the connection hotel to use theirs. The room was clean and comfortable, but the bathroom needs repair. The wall was peeling and the counter pulling away from the wall.

1. Checked in while another couple were checking out because of roaches in their room. 2. Room was in disrepair. 3. Room was dirty, bug splats all over ceiling, not been vacuumed properly, hole under door approx 2 inches high. 4. Went out for dinner, and a group were arriving with cameras blatantly intending to shoot adult movies. 5. Door was repeatedly tried during the night by an adult male trying to get in the room. 6. Only good thing about the visit fast checkout.

Night before the flight.

It was exactly what we needed. Close to the airport, clean, two beds, pet friendly. Larger than a standard room, having a tad more space was nice. Front desk staff was awesome! Don’t expect fancy, extravagant, or frills and fancy. It’s standard, basic, but clean and comfortable. The hotel is close to needing a renovation (carpets, tile flooring) but they did the most with what they have. Clean and comfortable.

Red Lion Hotel, Good Or Not?

Everything was satisfactory, except for having to get my room changed due to the bathroom sink now working, and both dryers were broke even though only one was labeled out of order, so I had to check out with wet clothes today.

Okay I recently stayed here the hotel was looking good inside at the checking area was beautiful with a great chandelier. When I went to check in they couldn’t find my reservation expedia was the problem for that which was ridiculous. However the guy at the front desk did something and got us our room which was awesome. The next day we went out only to come back and was basically lock out of our rooms, when I went to check the person that was working there say I was only book for one night instead of two she did rectify the situation and got our keys to work again which was great. The room was standard it was okay until I realize there was mold growing inside the bedside table and there was a smell in the room like a wet or moldy smell. However I would have give overall a 2 out of 5. The hotel need some deep cleaning and evaluation
