I did not have high expectations due to the reduced price for the room, but it was much worse than even I expected. First, the office was closed just after 11:00pm when I arrived. The gentleman who came to check me in was a security guard in a vest and carrying an open carry gun. He was nice and got me checked in. The property and elevator were dirty. But the absolute worst was the stench of stale cigarette smoke in the room. It was so bad I couldn't even sleep. This was a Non-Smoking room and I had to sign that I would not smoke in the room (Not a smoker, so I happily signed this). I will never stay at this hotel again nor will I recommend it to anyone.

STAY SOMEWHERE ELSE
STAY SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!!! Room was disgusting. Cat food all over the floor of a "no pets" hotel. Floor appeared as though it had not been mopped in days. There was a cockroach in the bathroom. The heat didnt work in the room and to top it all off, no one at the desk from 11pm to 7am. All redroof corporate had to say was "Wait until 7am so someone could help." We were booked for two nights, stayed zero nights.

A MUST TO AVOID
This is a Transient housing facility trying to double as a legitimate hotel. We didn't even last one HOUR at this flop house. 1: The "Well furnished kitchenette" had ZERO dishes or pots (But they will SELL them to you) and 2 busted burners. 2: Place had an off smell and everything looked dingy. 3: NO TOWELS. (didn't get to asking if they sell those too...tried to call the front desk and HUNDREDS of roaches scurried out of the inoperable phone. 4: Took a call to Hotels.com to get the manager to issue a refund for our full paid price (We paid there, yet they tried to say we needed to get the refund from Hotels.com...the call got that fixed. If I could've given this place negative stars, I would've.

Good location, but would not even consider again
Two people working at the front desk were very, very friendly. That's where the positives end. I was assigned a room that looked lived in (bed unmade, water bottles and trash on the table and counter top), so I asked to be moved. The room I then got smelled like smoke. The bathroom sink poured water out from the base of the faucet when turned on. The upper door hinge on the refrigerator was held together with a zip tie. The A/C unit worked pretty well, but made was continually making different noises that, instead of functioning as white noise, made it difficult to sleep.

Traveled with family
Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
When we arrived no one to check in, had to go looking around for person as no note on check in desk about being away and back at this time (as I do know everyone deserves a break). Then when i found her not very welcoming or apologetic that no one was here (note we arrive around 5 so after checkin time but not late). Room really showing age and had a cleaning smell when we can in. Overall room not bad. Also got a notice on window that was wash out by morning dew but looks like a notice for parking backwards (later found the comment on parking pass that no backwards parking was allowed). Did this to allow my mom who is disable a easier walk to elevator as we were on 2nd floor. Not a place I would stay again any time soon. Did. Look like they were rehabbing rooms so maybe all rooms are getting updated.
