That is why we went to begin with. If you want a 5 star Red Lion Inn experience, go to Red Lion Inn. This place with its unique history, is the reason we chose to stay there. Sure, some of the rooms are small, but get real, it was set up for the Jesuit priests, and they obviously needed very little in the way of extravagant amenities, and large ...
Ok, so there were initially a few hiccups. When we checked in our room was freezing. The heat was not on and the windows were opened. The front desk staff was frosty at best despite the fact she was chain-smoking in front of the entrance. When we had dinner at the Castle Key the food was so-so and the service sooo-slooow. We ended up standing ...

Hot and steamy
By unhappy, 08/21/08
The uncomfortable beds, hot and steamy rooms made our two nights very unpleasant. The very tiny awning window did not provide any breeze or ventilation during our weekend stay, and we question how we could ever get out if there was a fire. Forget this place – it is a fire hazard with mediocre rooms.

Not worth the price
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/27/08
Room was 3 stories up w/o an elevator. Room was very small and bathroom large. Bed was supposed to be a queen size but was a double. There was a noise all night long that sounded like a service elevator. Views were obstructive. WiFi only available in Library, not rooms. It was clean and the building had a rich history. I saw many duplicate hung ...

Not worth the money
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/16/08
My husband and I stayed here, we were both incredibly disappointed with the experience. We asked for a certain type of room and told that it would be held for us, and it was not. We spent 30 minutes waiting in the lobby to be moved to another room, and were given dirty looks and curt attitudes by the staff on duty. My husband is from Seattle and is ...

Staying at Manresa Castle
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/30/08
Here is the skinny..... If you are traveling any sort of distance to stay a night or two in Port Townsend, WA you should not stay at this castle. One, it is a distance from town and most rooms have a view of a grocery store or hospital. Two, the rooms are overpriced and kinda trashy. We paid for a special that included wine and dinner and one ...

Haunted, yet Quaint
By Nicole, 12/31/07
We had a little trouble finding the hotel when we arrived. There were no signs from the main road and it was very dark. We did find a good coffee shop, Grounds for Perfection, just along the highway on the right. They told us how to get back to the hotel.
When we did get to the hotel, we were given the keys to our room. The room was cute, small, ...

Wedding Bells
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/27/07
I am to wed there next month and it seems the attitudes at the front desk are volatile. Sometimes I get a lovely person at the other end of the line who clearly will go out of her way to help with any information I need... then there are those who, when I ask if the front desk is inquiring whether or not potential guests are for the "Smith ...
