Passable

Liked: The breakfast was ok!
Disliked: The hot tub wasn’t working and the hotel was overpriced! Possibly, because the state fair was going on!

Pricey, but convenient to restaurants,...

Liked: Breakfast was good, was the same each morning. Would like more variety for eggs and fruit. Shower head was great.
Disliked: Rm 110 - the toilet handle for flushing fell off. We were able to fix it.

Last stayed at a Red...

Liked: Good location
Disliked: Motel 6 type toiletries (pictures showed the higher end ones) - shampoo and bar soap only. Seriously? For over $150 per night? Room was not updated except for a nice bathroom mirror. No elevator (minor issue for us). Pub not open, pool was not operational. Not a terrible place, but feel like we could have stayed at a cheap motel and gotten the same thing.

Very good

Liked: Staff was friendly and location was convenient.
Disliked: I am still waiting for a receipt from my stay. You had computer issues the morning I checked out and I was told you would email the receipt and I have still not received it.
