The breakfast was honestly the worst part of it all. Not many choices so I tried to go for cereal but one smell of the not labeled milk and it was definitely spoiled. There was also a sign trying to say to keep breakfast in the breakfast room which is weird to me. But I’ve had better breakfasts at cheaper places, this one was probably the worst.

Very convenient close to everything that we need. Till next time red lion .. thank you
The room was meticulously clean. Staff were friendly and accommodating. It's weirdly always like a homecoming. Wish all the places I've traveled were so prepped and sufficiently affordable. James has been so patient with my kids and pet.
Check in was easy and got it for a good deal so tried it out. Room was clean and spacious. Bed was actually comfortable. Walls are thin and people were loud over the weekend.
