The staff were great and the Indian cuisine was amazing! The first room they showed us was in bad shape - broken doorknob, broken cabinet, no water pressure. They switched us to another room that was just fine and were nice about it. They’re going to renovate and repair all the hotel rooms this summer - when they’re all fixed this will be a great place to stay. Despite the hiccup we really enjoyed the Red Lion Inn.

The staff was friendly, but that's about it. The state of the room was shocking. There was dust on everything, the room had a very bad odour and had to leave the window half open for the entire night just to be able to stomach the stench. I am pretty sure some other guests smoked there before even with no smoking sign on the door.
