"Unorganized sloppy poor plumbing."
Overall Score2.0/5
It took almost two hours to check in for my prepaid reservation. Drains don’t drain in the sink or tub. My socks got dirty after walking in the room for less than 30 minutes. The staff were unprofessional…. But nice they were nice and apologetic. And the pool was closed. I won’t stay there again.
Nancy G. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from
04-Oct-2021 Verified Review, stayed from Fri Oct 01 to Sat Oct 02 2021 at a $110.99 average nightly rate.

"Very Disappointed"
Overall Score1.0/5
I don't care if you're air conditioning worked or not I was on the road for 14 hrs and you cancelled my reservations without calling me. But you didn't kick people out. What I actually think is you over booked and had egg on your face. I will NEVER stay with Red Lion AGAIN !

"Windows are next to freeway."
Overall Score3.0/5
Since our window was next to highway it was so loud at night. Because of noise we weren't able to sleep whole night and even before nine in the morning we already left this place. I don't think we would come back again.
Mariya K. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from
23-Oct-2020 Verified Review, stayed from Tue Oct 20 to Wed Oct 21 2020 at a $65.99 average nightly rate.
"Disappointing"
Overall Score2.0/5
The staff was adequate they were helpful enough but we really didn’t have much interaction with them, the hotel and room itself was in need of an upgrade. Very outdated and the hotel lobby/halls smelled of old smoke. We stayed during the covid 19 time and were very disappointed The furniture was stained and dirty. Disappointed especially for the price we paid for the room.
Mitchell E. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from
10-Aug-2020 Verified Review, stayed from Sat Aug 08 to Sun Aug 09 2020 at a $94.16 average nightly rate.
"About what I have learned to expect from this Red Lion."
Overall Score2.0/5
I have had bad experiences with this hotel in the past but since my company was having a meeting there I figured it was the easiest option for just one night. But when I went to take a shower and noticed how the drain was clogged and there was hair in the tub, I was reminded of why I choose to stay elsewhere when in the Longview area.
David W. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from
06-Feb-2020 Verified Review, stayed from Tue Feb 04 to Wed Feb 05 2020 at a $83.31 average nightly rate.
"Needs better customer service."
Overall Score3.0/5
Unfortunately I am unable to give this establishment a full star rating due to its customer service. Rooms were clean but the heater failed to work properly. So, It was a pretty not so cozy night. There is still to this date a charge on my card being held directly by RED LION for 40.00 in addition to my stay being paid. Three days later and where is my money.
Leanders C. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from
09-Jan-2019 Verified Review, stayed from Sat Jan 05 to Sun Jan 06 2019 at a $80.80 average nightly rate.

Expedia Group verifies all reviews to ensure that the customer has indeed booked on our site. To encourage customers to submit their reviews, we send an email containing a link to evaluate the hotel to which we sometimes attach a reduction or Expedia Rewards voucher to use on a future trip. We post all reviews whether they are positive or negative, to the extent that they respect our content directives. This monitoring is automated. Any rejection is manually checked and, if maintained, notified to the reviewer by email with reasons. We do not otherwise process changes, nor reviewer contact. We de-list reviews after 4 years, other than for properties having a non-significant number of reviews.
