"We reserved the room for our nephew and we stayed at another hotel in town because the Red Bear didn't have additional rooms at the time. I went in with him to register and the desk attendant was wonderful. Very personable and professional. My nephew said the room was great. Exceptionally clean and very comfortable. He said he would definitely stay there again."
