1st room had a musty moldy smell on the 1st floor. Fire extinguisher was broken. They changed us to the 2nd floor which was much better. Clean spacious room.

The room was nasty. Dirty towels and washcloths with stains and pubic hair. The bed spread had stains with sticky stuff on it. I think it is rentwd by the hour too. Lots of sex and banging on the walls beside us. When i spoke to management about problems he said he knows and dowsnt blame me for canceling our last night with them

MY STAY WAS HORRIBLE I HAD TO GO GET SHEETS WASH CLOTHES AND TOWELS IT WAS ROACHES IN MY ROOM I HAVE A VIDEO AND BLOOD ON MY SHEETS WHEN I GOT THERE THIS PLACES NEEDS TO BE CLOSED DOWN

There were lots of people just coming and going inside and into the parking lot. People hanging out right outside the door. Did not feel safe because of the loitering. After I paid I called and cancelled because we sat in the parking lot for a while watching to see if we even wanted to take in our luggage. We decided {to wait and get something to eat and come back and check if there was still people loitering. There was so I called the hotel to cancel our room [I had cancellation insurance on the room]. The manager would not let me cancel because I had the room card and he wanted me to bring it back. I told him I didn't want to come back to the hotel that I would pay for the card but I wanted my room canceled. He charged me for it any how. We did not feel safe at all there on that day. We rode around town and booked at a hotel that we felt much safer. We still want our money refunded as we didn't even step foot past the registration window.

The attutude of the worker was outstanding i was told red roof inn were nice in my they was a air coming in the window like i was standing outside. But it also look like some has broke into the room and another person that there room smell like smoke.

My room had a mosquito problem, I ended up with eight very painful and swollen bites even though I used a repellent and it was November, so they are likely breeding somewhere inside the hotel

Horrinle place full of drug dealers hookers and fighting in the next room all night the staff did nothing about it. Left day early.

The motel smell like drugs and I didn't like that at the tub was dirty.

It was not clean and smell so bad I didn’t like it at all

It was not like other Red Roof's we have stayed at. We were just passing through and needed a nap but it was very dirty, it had a horrible odor in the hallway and the bedrooms. The bathroom towels were all wet and we had to get new ones. The vent was missing in the bathroom-there was just an open hole. You had to push and force the door open just to get in. We will look for anther Red Roof and not stay at this one. Sorry but this location needs more repairs, renovation and more care.

When I got there the whole hotel smelled as if they had hot boxed it. Pot smell from floor 1 - 3. There were random people looking out windows. Very uncomfortable environment. We went in took showers and left. There were 3 police men and a guy clearly drunk when we left at 1:00am. The tub had a hole in it. I will never stay here again!

El edifico dice que fue hace poco tiempo refaccionado y quizá si las camas y el mobiliario (refrigerador/microondas) pero el aire acondicionado mete muchísimo ruido y el olor a humedad en todo el edificio es fuerte, más aún el olor a cigarrillo en el ingreso (front desk) del hotel, tohallas de muy mala calidad y sin desayuno que fue uno de los ítems que puse en mis preferencias al buscar hotel.
