Outdated rooms, bad smell in the room and bathroom in bad condition. Rooms need renovation. Welcoming staff and good breakfast, swimming pools and kids playground are good assets, but facility is old and not well maintained.

At one time this was probably a great hotel - large rooms surrounding a large pool and lots of amenities including tennis courts. However, the hotel needs an overhaul and is quite dated. The bathroom and toilet looked like nothing had changed since the 1980s.

Stayed at Red Lion with my two sons; overall, it was fine. The website said the restaurant was open Monday to Friday, but it was closed when we got there, which was inconvenient. Staff were excellent; 5 stars. Super respectful and helpful the entire time. Room was okay. Mattress was decent, pillows weren’t great. Nothing special, but it worked for the trip. Fun vacation overall, but the hotel was just average.
