"Built as a Red Lion Hotel in the late 1970s, this hotel became a Hilton and then a Doubletree, and later returned—renewed and re-invigorated—as the Red Lion on the River."

The hotel's shuttle whisks guests, by request and at no cost, to that shopping, as well as to the Light Rail stop—and to and from the airport.
