Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is dated. The park across the street is essentily a homeless encampment. I didnt feel safe walking in the Capital area especially with my small children. I have stayed many times at the Red Lion Inn in Elko, NV. Its a great hotel. I feel bad for the empmoyees working in these urban areas.

The staff did the best they could under impossible circumstances. The elevator broke down with guests inside, fire department attended which was unpleasant upon our arrival. Room was not cleaned, left over food in the fridge. Homeless people lurking around and sleeping on the sidewalk. We felt very unsafe.

2/5 Poor

Travelled with partner
Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
We spent 4 nights. The staff were friendly. The breakfast was good. The man (think his name is Marvin) did a great job of refilling things etc. He was also helpful and outgoing. A woman was working one morning, and everything was empty with people waiting. We walked thru, but did not stay. The outside temps were near 100 degrees during our stay. Rooms share a central ac system. Very inadequate. Our room with drapes closed all day was over 100 degrees when we returned in the evening. We were provided a fan, but in order for it to do any good we had to keep our door open for circulation. One morning we woke up to a leaking ceiling, so had to change rooms. The property really needs major updating. The tub was peeling. Water temps in the shower fluctuate between ice cold & scalding. Ceilings & walls cracked. Popcorn ceilings. The hallways smelled musty. They also need to post on some door exits that you cannot return. I exited to go down 1 floor for ice and was locked out of all floors. I had to walk down 6 floors and exited onto the street late at night, where I walked around the corner to the main entrance of the property. Will never stay there again.
