Front desk workers were polite and accommodating. Johnnie's bar was great and Chris the bartender was personable and friendly, gave us city suggestions!

Doors were broken, bathrooms closed, no breakfast because they said it wasn’t fully booked early enough in the week. Sink drain was broken bathtub had water in it.

The pool

The room had some issues but not enough characters to list the problems.

Located in downtown Yakima, next to the event center, is this hotel. It's dated, in a retro late 80's/early 90's kinda way. The room was clean (dated) and comfortable. The grounds on the property are maintained, and clean. The building(s) themselves could use some minor repairs and upkeep. It felt like we were the only ones there for the night, which felt odd , but made for a quiet stay. The staff that I encountered were friendly, and outgoing. All in all, I feel like it's an older property that's a bit neglected by the ownership, but lovingly maintained and kept on course by the staff. Id recommend the place as a value stay if you were needing a place in Yakima.

Not great

Good

Good

Great staff. The room's balcony needed a good cleaning. The birds haven't been cleaning up after themselves.

Very nice place, would stay again.

It was a quick stay but when booking it had no free breakfast but when checking in the said it would cost an extra $10.00 per person. At first they were taking us for breakfast and then decided that it wasn’t included in our room. So we had to pay $20 for two people. All hotel that I’ve have stayed with in the pass have those kind of breakfast free. The other hotels actually have better selection that they offer for no charge. Other than that no complaints

I stay here because the outdoor patios. I showed up at 2:58 PM for 3 PM check-in. No rooms available the young lady was less than agreeable. Went and had a bite to eat and came back at 3:30 and had the most wonderful young man checked me in an upgrade me to the room I wanted. I guess it depends on who is checking you in. She failed miserably and he excelled.

Property is run down and in need of an update… pools closed indefinitely and rooms not in use. They do t seem to have much of an aptitude for ADA or accommodating people with disabilities.

The hotel is dated and needs updates and repairs. Bed was old and uncomfortable. Right on emergency route so heard sirens all night. Tv wasn’t functional. Cleanliness was average. No food services-no vending machines, on-site restaurant/bar not open on Sunday.

Made a reservation for my elderly mother and the staff was extremely kind and took her safety into account. Amazing property clean room lovely garden patio. So affordable for the quality

Property was awesome. Great shower. Five minutes from the airport. I only stayed here for about five hours. I wish they had coffee in the room.

It needs a revamp

When I first got there. The staff was friendly and wonderful. When I went to the to to my room. Bar look outdated. Loved the idea of having a bar there. Maybe have a section of it where it's family friendly. I noticed the security doors to get in with a key didn't close very well. Doesn't feel secure or safe to a point. Got into my room and it smelled like mildew. Opened up the balcony, which I really loved having. The rooms, hallways and front office are very outdated. Beds were lumpy and caved in. Wasn't pleasant on my back in the morning. Had very old carpets. Need to maybe make it fake hardwood floors. Update the decor. Chairs outside of balcony are very old. I had to wipe them down with a bathroom towel. Breakfast was lovely in the morning. Pools weren't open either. I think I would of stayed in the holiday inn across the street next time. Reason I didn't to there is because the price was $100 more. But for all those reasons I think I old pay the higher price now.

went above and beyond to make us happy

Pool was empty, restaurant and bar not open

There’s so much I could say. This Ref Lion is not just dated but just DIRTY. My first room reeked of cigarette smoke, surfaces were clearly not clean, lights were very dim and the wall paper was ripped and visibly peeling off the walls. I requested a new room and was given one. The new room was at least cleaner. There was an unidentified stain on one of the sheets. There was a huge water stain on the ceiling, the carpets were in clear need of shampooing, there were rips in the curtains, the tub did not drain properly so I was standing in my shower water. I had to go buy myself bedding just to feel comfortable on the bed. If not for the conference I had to attend, I would’ve left and not stayed at all. This is just a lack of care and a gross lack of effort. The room was over $100 per night, so for the grounds and rooms to be in the disrepair there’s in, is astonishing.

The front desk employee that checked us in was awesome, but one of our beds had... A stain... I'm not sure how the housekeepers missed it, and there was no cable box for the TV. The bar was cool and other bars are within walking distance which makes for a good pub crawl!

Nice stay, would stay again.

Smelled musty. sheets worn out. towel rack falling down, bathroom modifications poorly done, front desk sent us on a walk to a coffee shop when we asked instead for a recommendation for a "sit down" breakfast restaurant.

Near convention stuff and fast food restaurants. Got in late, didn't see much of neighborhood. Quiet area. Desk manager friendly and quick. Room identical to other Red Lions we've been to, identical, which is ok. Quiet room.

Just was the only one there no other check ins super overpriced and dirty my room smelled like cigarette smoke, and it got into my clothes and luggage and I took it home with me. I will never stay at that one ever again be aware.

My boyfriend and i booked a last minutes stay here at the red lion yakima center. Far different than the red lion and suits location. I had amazing communication with the front staff. We saw that check in was midnight but we called in advance that we would arrive before 1am and they were able to make note of that and someone was there to check us in. I even informed then of my 2 dogs and they were fine with that and gave us a room out by the garden area i think. I know it worked out because there was a sliding glass door in our room and i was able to let my dogs go out. We didnt see any drugs or any homeless at this specific location and we were pleased. Now i recommend sleeping with a tv on loud or wearing ear piece. The walls are very thin. We could hear the woman next to us moaning very loudly and my dogs were very curious lol Also the rooms a little out dated but it didnt bother me. What did bother me wasnno fan in the bathroom. But overall i would stay here again .

Clearly a premium property in the 80s. Nice property, quiet rooms. Stained bed linens, toilets and showers moldy,movie theater carpets cleaner, furniture in dis repair. NO MAID service. Advertises restaurant and lounge, yes they have the facilities. However they only open them when the occupancy rate is high enough they can afford WA state wages to operate. Property is nice though. Stay down the block at the Holiday Inn, at least there you know what your getting for half the price.

Just ok

The closet was so inaccessible.We could use it at all

We enjoyed our stay. Just a few notes...this property is dated and needs some updates. My room had a usb port but my friends did not. Lightbulbs were out in bathroom, hallway light in and out and refrigerator was noisy. The staff was very nice and helpful though.

good value for price
