Night on the Town

Front desk clerk was very friendly. I was very happy with the new room beds and decor. It was very clean and quiet. I think they must have done a recent remodel because everything in the room was new. Just a little dissapointed no blow dryer in room. Loved the location with easy access to I-4. Would definitely stay again!

celebrating anniversary

clean but bathroom was way too small and tub didn't drain while taking a shower. The hotel was to have free wifi but I couldn't stay connected. I'd be busy doing something on my i-pad and wifi would kick me off line very frustrating. The staff were good, one girl, I believe her name was Lola was super, I really enjoyed her, very helpful. We were celebrating our 43rd wedding anniversary, we wish we had stayed else where.

Don't waste your money!!

Although this hotel is in a great location, it is the worst I have EVER been in. The first room we were given smelled like mold and pesticide to the point of making me nauseous. I immediately requested another room and was shocked to see it was not much better. Dirty floors, the bed sheets, blanket, and comforter had nasty stains on them, and the smell was not much better than the first room. I was offered yet another room and it was the same thing as the others...nasty sheets and smell inside. We decided to stay in the second room offered because we came to town on a limited budget and couldn't afford to upgrade to a better hotel. I found very small bugs on the first set of sheets (not sure if it was bed bugs, but it sure looked like it) and requested a new set. We were given a new set the first night, but the front desk attendant claimed to not have access to a new mattress cover and comforter. We dealt with getting the run around for 3 nights just trying to get a new, unstained comforter and finally got one on the 4th night after screaming at the front desk attendant. We were given the first night free of charge, but the general manager refused to help any further than that after filing a complaint through guest relations. We will NEVER stay at a Red Roof again!! Worst experience at a hotel EVER!! Save your money and opt for something better!!

Excellent Location

The lady at the front desk was super polite. No problems with check-in after purchasing tickets. We got out parking passes (must get and hang visibly, or will be towed). Had an awesome night. Cleaning staff in the morning were polite and quite. We left without incident upon check out and returning our room keys. Cute setup in king bed room!
