The Red Lion had very recently been taken over by the attached Raddison Hotel. The rooms I requested were unavailable due to renovations so we were stuck in full-sized beds instead of queen-sized. We booked two rooms. One room was fine. The other original room smelled like smoke and had a bunch of cockroaches. They moved us and the other room was fine. The staff that we interacted with were fantastic but there were other problems besides the room issues mentioned. We started the stay with watching tv in The Red Lion lobby. After the first couple days, the remote disappeared and the tv was off. We didn’t have it again. Also, the lobby was closed because of the take over so the Red Lion front doors were set so they only opened for people going out. However. After the first few days, the doors would not open at all. It felt like a fire hazard.

We checked in to Red Lion while on our way back frim Florida to Canada, hoping we will have breakfast as it was included in the trip cost. Upon checking there was no kitchen, no breakfast. I had little kids and this was all very inconvenient to go around and get breakfast when we imagined it will be at one place.

A set of air pods were left behind. We called and asked if someone could find them. We were told they were not in the room. We can see from our devices that the air pods were absolutely still in the room. If someone has them we would like them sent to us and we will pay for shipping.

The checkin staff are great. Friendly and accommodating. Building and rooms are older and it shows especially in the bathrooms. Some need more TLC than others. Beds are clean and comfortable. It is quiet. Nice to have a place on site to grab a quick basic meal.
