It was a nice easy stay. The front desk lady was very nice. Nothing fancy, but if you need a quick stay somewhere, this is a decent choice! The train that runs near isnt as loud as other reviews state, I personally didnt mind it. Things were clean. No complaints, would stay again!

Stayed here for three nights and was pretty disappointed with the experience. Upon check-in, the interaction was extremely awkward—the employee just stared at me through the window after I said hello, without saying a single word. I ended up handing over my license assuming that’s what was needed. He scanned it, passed me a paper and pen to sign, returned my ID, and that was it. Not a single word was exchanged, which left a really strange first impression. As for the room, while it looked like it had been partially remodeled, there were still a lot of issues. Rusty fixtures, no ventilation in the bathroom, and worst of all—the floors were absolutely filthy. After just a few minutes walking around, my socks and feet were completely black. That level of dirtiness is unacceptable. We were only provided with two small bath towels and half a roll of toilet paper for a three-night stay, which felt very unprepared and inconvenient. We ended up making a trip to the target down the street to get toilet paper and some bath towels because the front office door was locked both times we went to get the supplies. Would not stay here again unless major improvements are made in cleanliness, amenities, and customer service. This is the cheapest hotel in the area.

It was a decent and cheap place to stay, the main downside was it's kind of isolated on what is basically a highway, and it's a 7-10 min walk to literally anything else. Not a problem if you're driving but if you want to walk or use transit it's a little inconvenient.

Review Red Carpet Inn D.C.

Good location but was not aware a train ran underneath the hotel. A train yard is right behind the hotel. No place to sit except on the bed. No hair dryer in room. Key card only works for one day then you have to go to the office and be issued a new one.
