Red Roof Cedar Rapids is only 23 miles north of the University of Iowa, home of the Big Ten Conference Iowa Hawkeyes! But Cedar Rapids is a flourishing center for the arts and theater as well. Red Roof Cedar Rapids is convenient to the Cedar Rapids Museum of Art, the Paramount Theater, and the Iowa Cultural Corridor alliance. Cedar Rapids is also the home of many great annual events, such as the Freedom Festival (leading up to the Fourth of July), the Iowa Arts Festival, Floodstock, Lincoln Highway Arts Festival, and many more. Our hotel is conveniently located off or I-380 and 33rd Avenue.

Worst room ever!

This was the dirtiest room I have ever stayed in. The carpet was sticky. The shower curtain was mildewed and the bed spread and blanket were stained.

Ups and downs

Pros: Affordable, free breakfast, free wifi (okay speed), decent room size, and the staff was very friendly. Cons: Bathroom very small, room not very well sound insulated (could hear people talking outside very clearly at 5am), and there were some bugs in my room (roly polys, beetles, and some spiders).

Affortable place to sleep

When I travel, I do not spend much time in the hotel because I always fill my day up with activities. This hotel is great for that because it provides a great bed to sleep on compared to other hotels in the area. Security is a major factor at this hotel as well. You must have your key-card to access the stairs and elevator. One thing that disappoints me with the place is the breakfast. When compared to continental breakfasts at other locations, it just does not stand up to the competition. The big part of the meal is make your own waffles, but there is not much else besides some fruit and a limited selection on toast/English muffins.

It was very clean and quiet. I was glad the smoking and non-smoking rooms were separated.

Red Roof Inn - Cedar Rapids Iowa

Good location. Rather aged hotel. Only the third (top) floor is non-smoking and has interior rooms. The front desk was helpful, even giving ethernet cables because the "free" wifi is sketchy at best. The breakfast is the worst I have seen, the only meal offerings are waffles and apples. You can get juice, hot water and coffee. The king bed was a plus and was comfortable. Room size is average.

Quick stop

We came in for my god daughters first baby shower. We decided to sleep in town before heading back north to home. The hotel was great except for the thin walls. You could hear every noise in any of the rooms around the one we stayed in and the noise out in the hall. The only noise we didn't hear was the traffic.

Unhappy 2nd stay
Omaha, NE
May 2, 2010

What was I thinking!!!

I had a ground floor room, I thought that would be great. WRONG, my room faced the interstate, next to a stairwell. The other guests were exremely roudy and very loud at all hours of the day and night. Last time I stayed I had a great experience, this time was an extreme opposite. I booked the same exact type of room, but this room had none of the ammenaties that my last stay had.
