Terrible all the way around. Bad section of town, the Red Lion is actually boarded up and you have to enter thru the hotel next door. Homeless everywhere and roaming the hotel halls begging for money. Pot smoke pervasive. No ammenities in the rooms and every surface is sticky. Totally misrepresented.
