It was comfortable and met...

Liked: The room was clean & comfortable

Needs lots of TLC

Liked: Not much
Disliked: Clearly 20 years past its glory. Over due for major renovations. Not up the the level Red Lion hotels use to stand for.

Disappointing.

Liked: The location was close to Starbucks, fast food restaurants and the freeway
Disliked: The hotel smelled musky, the whole building was dark. The furnishings in the hotel looked dated and like it was under construction. There were broken windows, missing switch plates, the mattress in the bedroom wasn't covered, the floors in the bedroom felt dirty. The pool was dirty. There were hairballs in the pool. Dog footprints, wet, next to the pool. Garbage outside and visible from all windows. The "continental breakfast" was just pastries and everything in the crowded space the food was set up in was dark and looked dirty.

Disappointing

Liked: Breakfast is terrible. There’s no coffee multiple times. Basically you could choose from cereal or toast very disappointing.
Disliked: It did not look like the pictures. Our room was rundown and I would not say it looked clean. Especially the bathroom. Breakfast was terrible. Just a rundown hotel that was very expensive.

Superb

Exceptional

Not worth it, don’t waste...

Liked: For the price $149 a night I would expect the room to be clean. There was no fitted sheet on the bed. Just a top sheet, comforter not in a duvet and another top sheet, meaning every guest is sleeping on the same uncleaned mattress pad and comforter. There was hair all over in the shower, on the toilet and counter. It was hard to tell if the bathroom was cleaned. The worst part of the stay, the window didn’t close or lock. Anyone could have easily noticed the window was open a couple inches and came into the room. I had to push the couch up against it to make sure we were safe for the night. Don’t bother asking for extra blankets they don’t have them. The mattress was rock hard, the pillow cases ripped and you can tell they leave whatever the previous guests didn’t obviously use for the next person. It was hard to tell what was freshly washed and what was just hung back up. The shower is either scalding or ice cold there is no in between although the water pressure is very strong. Two driveways down there is a 7.8 star hotel for the same price. Definitely not a $149 a night hotel more like $69.99. The staff was very friendly but they weren’t able to resolve any of the above issues.
