great location in post falls

Liked: this is a great resort property. room was clean and comfortable. great location
Disliked: the wi-fi was non existent. upon calling the front desk were told to wave our phone around outside and it might pick up the signal. not okay

Great value

Liked: Restaurant and location are spot on. Staff is wonderful.
Disliked: Rooms could be a little more updated.

Comfortable and quiet

Liked: Room appeared very dark and dismal, bathroom was excellent with lovely soft towels. The first room we were offered had a balcony that was not big enough for one chair. We asked to move to a ground floor which had a patio, a good move. Breakfast was good , but should have been included in the price. Evening menu very limited. The area is very quiet and peaceful with a nice walk down to the marina.
Disliked: No coffee machine in room , we very expected to go up in the lift , to carry two coffees back to our room. My husband walks with a stick , so this was impossible for him. After our complaining we were given a coffee machine

Will not go again.

Liked: Room was clean. Nice view of the river.
Disliked: Minimal amenities in room. Haven't stayed in a hotel in YEARS that didn't have a coffee maker in room. Brought my tea bags but there was no cup I could use. I could have used the microwave but still had no cup. I also expected a patio or balcony that we could sit at (that was a big part of why we chose this hotel.) We had a door that opened to a small space (less than half a kitchen table) that was outside but it was filthy and didn't have space for a chair. So my dream of spending the warm evening (on our 40th wedding anniversary) sitting outside and talking and watching the river was a BUST. Sat in our small room and were able to look at the river through the window. Hotel needed some outside public space that was available to their guests. Nothing served for breakfast at all and we thought we were going to get a coupon for eating at the restaurant but that didn't happen either.

Beautiful Location

Liked: Hands down nicest Red Lion I have ever seen. Such a great location I am bummed we didn't get into town earlier to enjoy the river front view from the deck during the daytime. Definitely get a room overlooking the river. The ambience is really nice. Great large parking lot that is private. Would 100% stay here again.

Pleasant

Friendly staff

Liked: Bed very comfortable and staff very nice and accommodating. Beautiful view from 2nd room that we stayed in.
Disliked: First room assigned had black mold in shower. Older and perhaps harder to clean grout areas of tiles in bathroom.

Super bummed about the pool/hot...

Liked: It seems like they’re trying to renovate the place. Nice lobby, bar, and restraunt.
Disliked: Not the best place to take kids that are looking for a pool to swim in. The pool is freeezing cold (not heated) and the hot tub doesn’t work. That would’ve been nice to know beforehand.

Won’t stay again unless it...

Liked: I was here several years ago and loved it. This time not so much. The bed was comfortable is about the only good thing about it.
Disliked: To start with no one was around at check in, I waited 15 minutes til someone showed up. Got to the room and there is a whole counter top with no coffee pot. The glass and spinner for the microwave was in the sink on that counter, refrigerator handle was broken and fridge was barely cold, burn mark on carpet where someone had let an iron sit long enough to burn a perfect impression into carpet, paint in the bathroom was bubbled and peeling, toilet was making an awful noise when flushing and then to top it all off, I’m not sure if they had just pulled comforter out of the dryer and didn’t realize it was still damp but it was literally was damp. After spending a day out in the rain kinda didn’t think I would come into a room as damp as the outdoors that day. Th en went to get ice from second floor ice machine and it had none, I’m not sure if it was even plugged in. For as nice as this place used to be, it has done a complete flip to the opposite.
