It's a shame that Red Lion doesn't seem interested in running The Little Lion (formerly Briarcliff). We've stayed here in the past and it's been great - comfortable rooms, great breakfast, access to the lobby to hang out, and a wonderful experience with Rhonda, the onsite innkeeper who recommended local resources. All of that is gone. Contactless check in, billed as a selling point, means there is nobody on site. Only folks there are you and possibly other guests. Lobby is no longer accessible, and breakfast is not provided. When I inquired about getting breakfast at the inn, I was assured it was available, but when I asked if it was included in the cost, I was told no. Even a credit towards breakfast would have helped. And while it's a relatively safe area, I didn't feel great about not having staff on site should anything come up. I'm sad to say we likely won't be staying here again.

We were very disappointed in The Little Lion. There was a refrigerator and microwave in the room, but no coffee maker. There also was no vending machine or ice available. In the morning there was no coffee. We stopped for an overnight and were not prepared with our own coffee and beverages so it was very inconvenient. They also advertise having a pool when in reality, the pool is at another inn 3.5 miles away. Needless to say, we will not be recommending this motel.

Have been staying at the Briarcliff for the past 5 years. The newly renamed, "Little Lion" has certainly lost all sense of appeal. There is no longer an inn keeper on-site and as a result the main lobby is inaccessible. This includes any access to coffee or the delightful breakfast pastries that had been available during previous years. Additionally, the lack of on-site staff meant that as anyone arrived at the inn they were inquiring about the processes, reservations and room accesses. I didn't know that I would be paying for a weekend away only to be put to work as an innkeeper. Highly recommend staying elsewhere.

My stay here was very pleasant. Booking was a breeze and I did like the fact they were easy to communicate with and checking in was so easy. Love the simplicity. Whenever I have to travel back to that town I will surely stay here again. In fact I will be next week.

Jack and Jane Fitzpatrick would be very upset if they had to stay in room 8. The rug over the carpet was bunched ib the middle which was very dangerous. Shower faucet caused us to get very wet when we had to turn it on. The floor also got wet because of a half glass permanent shower door. No coffee pot in room or on premises. Tiny television.
