Not bad for the price, floor was pretty sticky and had dead bugs. Hotel next door was getting painted and they started pretty early and they were working from the parking lot of the Red roof inn. Woke us up at 5:45 am. Weve always liked Red Roofs, sometimes its a hit or miss. The dead bugs and sticky floor were a bit of a no for us.

Disappointing

Awful. It was nothing like the pictures on the website. Dirty, unsafe, very disappointed. We planned on staying three nights - found a new hotel within a couple of hours of arriving and left the next morning.

They said there were booked up for the night when i asked for a non smoking room. But parking lot has scattered cars. The room is definitely a smoking. My wife smokes and she's upset with the smell of the room.

Crooks tried to double deposit when I checked in.

Got double charged for deposit and had staff argue with me about it, was kept up all night by people outside, took forever to get deposit back. I travel for work and have never had a bad experience like this.

We felt right at home. The bed was more comfortable than ours at home, though. The staff and service could not have been better! I do not recall there being a drink machine in the snack/ice machine room, but, there was one in the motel lobby, so we had access to one. We'd stay at this Red Roof Inn again.

This is my second time staying at the property. I like that it is recently renovated. The last time I stayed my room was clean neat. This time however although I reserved for a non-smoking room, I was put in a room that smelled of smoke. And when I asked the attendant to change it he said had no other room. Only after I went to the front desk in person did he bring a machine to apparently remove the smell. It made only a small difference.
