The Governor is a great spot and super affordable. The rooms have mini-refrigerators which is awesome. A lot of newer hotels don’t have them anymore. The location is very convenient & the staff is great.

I would love to give them better reviews but the floors were torn up and the tubs were falling apart some of them had no walls or missing parts on the wall as well as chunks missing out of the bottom of the tub after being moved and the next room having the same problem, It was better to just wait it out.

Amazing staff. Room was huge! Bed not so comfortable and when you are showering, water temperature repeatedly changes from scolding to ice cold as if someone is flushing the toilet over and over. Not enough towels given.

I prefer positivity, but dread lyin'

The room they sent me to was occupied. The bed wasn't made and someone's clothes and luggage were strewn about. They gave me a different room when I drew this to their attention. A candy bar I got from the 8th floor vending machine came out half melted. The shower ran too hot or too cold. The floor of the dinning area at breakfast was sticky. The coffee was pretty bad. The staff was kind and apologetic, but I will not stay at the Red Lion again.
