Sounded like clog dancing overhead
Pros:

Stomping from upstairs on second floor in the evenings and early mornings for four days straight. Asked for help from front desk but it DID NOT STOP. Do not stay here.

Très bon emplacement à kalispell

We really enjoy the Red Lion it in a great location and it's a good price
Pros:

I got a family room because we had 4 adults and wanted to be together and still have room to move around and have other family members come over and visit without being right on top of each other

Cons:

The toilet seat was really low my elderly mother felt like she was going to fall every time she used it

The room was what I expected from an older hotel. The price being charged Wass not a good value .
Pros:

The continental breakfast was good. Lots of selection and was always kept full by the staff. The bed was comfortable and the room stayed comfortable with the AC.

Cons:

The room was decent but is in need of updates. There was mold in the shower and a clearly visible spider web projecting from underneath the heater/ac unit. The second room with 2 beds did not have towels upon arrival and appeared to have not been cleaned and no toilet paper. We had to request from the front desk. The room also had no maid service the entire stay.

I’m not a happy camper
Pros:

Very shoddy and needs. Serious updating. The room was clean but very small bathroom. I was booked here by a tour company and I will let them know how disappointed I was. The meal they served was inadequate. Breakfast was okay but the carpets are stained.

fabulous stay in Kalispel, would recommend.
Pros:

Loved our stay at the Red Lion hotel in the perfect location to Kalispel. Walking distance to everything. the check in was easy and friendly and the room was a big room with a seperate area for the bedroom, so nice and quiet. the swimming pool was a bonus as it was hot sunny weather so we enjoyed the pool.

Breakfast was good with friendly staff.

All in all it was a pleasant 4 nights stay and would highly recommend staying at the Red Lion hotel next time you are in Kalispel. .

Cons:

no overhead lighting in the rooms and one of the bedroom reading lamps did not work so the rooms were quite dark all the time, I did report the lamp, but no one came to look at it.

This was only a minor issue and did not reflect of our stay.

Worked well for an overnight stay, close to touristy old town shopping and dining.
Pros:

Proximity to old town Kalispell. Large room, nice bedding, lots of towels.

Cons:

Dated decor, stale air, poor ventilation, lumpy bed. No operable windows had cracking window film, ruined any views.
