Pros:

The grounds are beautiful and we loved the view of the river. Pond and Koi fish are fabulous! The waitress was super friendly at the restaurant. We had a burger and fish tacos. Both were delicious! Free coffee in lobby was good.
The rooms were spacious, clean and had comfortable beds. The rooms are a bit worn and furniture could use update.

Cons:

Had to get someone to turn on fire pits, which one did not work. Lots of cigarettes in the pits. Sitting by fire pit is one of our favorites so we were bummed.

Wouldn't stay there again.
Pros:

The room was basic but clean.

Cons:

I guess the property is under renovation and the bungalows and their grounds by the river looked nice but we were in the pod section of the hotel and it was really not in good shape or well-maintained. The room was very stripped down. Very few outlets for plugging in electronics. Only one small garbage can. No laundry bag - had to find a room attendent and ask for one, all she had available was a small trash can bag. No freezer section in the frig - or anywhere on the property due to renovations going on. They did offer a free basic breakfast at the on-site restaurant which was nice. Staff at the front desk was not helpful when asked for off-site restaurant recommendations in the area. She said she lives in Redding so didn't kow about local options. The pool and hot tub were o.k., however there were no pool towels anywhere. Very disappointed in the facility, reception staff, and grounds - expected more since it is a "spa" hotel. Location is right off of I-5 and that's what we had a view of from our outside little patio. Not pleasant. Too high priced for condition of the hotel and grounds.
