There are 2 elevators and only one was working. So going up-and-down took a lot longer, and we were also told we could use the service elevators, which ended up being an inconvenience for the workers because they would be packed with guests. We got there on a Thursday, and we ran into people who had been there since Sunday and said that the elevator was broken since then. So it took a long time for them to get them fixed. I understand that may not be in their control. But it was less than adequate when you consider there are 18 floors. The bathroom in our room was gross. There were what looked like bloodstains on the bathroom floor outside of the bathtub, as if someone had their period and the blood dripped on the floor and overall the floor looked like it hadn't been mopped in a long time. The bathtub had mold on the grout water dripped the entire time in the bathtub, and the bathtub was stained like rust. The hand towel rack fell off the wall when my husband went to dry his hands. The hallway was very dark and dingy. This hotel could definitely use a lot of updating. It was just an average hotel, and for some reason, I thought we were getting something better than this. Most of the staff was nice, and when we told them the issues that we had they decreased our bill. However, if I went back to that area, I would not stay there again. I would probably go across to the Courtyard where my brother and his family stayed, and they said it was, it's nice.

The mouse traps outside the front door should have been our first indication, and there were mouse boxes every 20 feet around the building.Only one working elevator that only accommodated about 10 people. there were 2 buses both days in a row where the whole hobby was flooded and only 8 or 10 people could get on the elevator at a time seemed unsafe as fire as fire hazard. Our toilet Wouldn't flush the 1st day.However, someone did come and fix it.We had no phone to call the front desk and every number.I called went directly to the national reservation line. could not get to the front desk.Had to go down the service elevator to even get down to the main lobby and we were on the seventeenth floor . Service elevator dirty as was the main floor area in service area. Overall run down in unkept part of town. Will definitly not stay there again. Had friends with us and embarrassed I had booked there.

So to start off the staff were all great very kind and attentive seemed overwhelmed a little with how busy it was and seemed a little understaffed but thats understandable ! I was a bit concerned with how little they had to offer at the actual hotel as in snacks and neccessities that are normally sold at hotels like if you forget something normally places have travel size stuff to buy at the front desk like toothpaste or tampons ect but they had none of that. So for people booking make sure you bring everything shampoo conditioner body wash all that because they supply small little bottles but thats it. Also the bathtub felt like it was going to cave in the middle was dipped in a lot and the room with two queens is extremely small and the view is not river front at all in the description it said it would be but its not. i thought it was going to be way bigger for 400 for two nights it was not worth it. The pool was also not very clean to be honest very cloudy water and i thought maybe the next day it would look a bit better but even next day didnt look like it was shocked or anything over night. I thought it would have more wondows too and be more open to the outside area but it def was not. Oh well tho the kids still loved the pool. Me on the other hand did not! I liked the hotel still but not what i was expecting i guess i knew it was an older hotel but it def needs some TLC!

STEER CLEAR FROM THE RADISSON

Our stay was AWFUL! I will be writing reviews on this place on all platforms so guests can be warned! Upon arrival we were greeted with (after they charged me mind you) "your room may or may not have water" . . . um ok? Our room did not have water for part of our first nights stay. When we did get water- it was brown. yes.. brown. The room was GROSS. smelled musty. Carpets had what looked like blood stains I know for a fact they did not vacuum it was gross..I did not take my shoes off until I went to bed. Not kidding. No outlets but 1 worked. We booked our room because it was advertised as riverfront - it wasn't. More like freeway front. Not even river view. The bedding was not clean - had hairs all over our sheets/blankets. No furniture was wiped down. Cob webs in every corner. Toilet barely flushed. Had to nearly break the handle to flush it. Begged to check out early, and be refunded for 2/3 of our days after all this. Was not even a option. By the way this was to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. Very unfortunate after all the above they would NOT even consider refunding me. Contacting corporate, and then my bank next if corporate doesn't make it right. I wouldn't house my animals at this place it's that bad.

This hotel needs a serious change of management and upgrade. It seems like they are just barely hanging in there. There are so many things going on with this place. The rooms are dated, little things are broken or damaged, there are stains all over the couches in the lobby, there are stains on the ceiling in some areas, the staff doesn’t answer the phone when you call, and the air conditioning was broken at the 18th floor restaurant. The buttons on one of the elevator were cracked and broken. And my mom has left her purse in the room we stayed at and we’ve tried to call the front desk number numerous times and no one will answer the phone. So we will have to continue to try to find a way to get in touch with them because they are two hours from our home. The good things are the bed was comfortable and the food was really good on the 18th floor, but for $45/ person I’d hope so! Ugh I’m so disappointed with this hotel because it has always been my Moms favorite but we will never stay here again after this experience unless they undergo a serious renovation with new management. Some one please save this hotel!
