Room was super clean. The property was well lit. Staff was friendly and the location was great with plenty of restaurants around. Only thing that could have made it better would have been a better mattress. I think mine was from the 70s. :D Would stay here again for the price.

The room was simple but okay. Lots of noise from a wooden stairway and thin walls. Convenient location. Didn’t feel really safe. No lobby, breakfast, or coffee in the room. Had to walk outside to the office for coffee but didn’t take any. Wasn’t very clean in the area.

Great accommodation

I recently had back surgery and I could not get in and out of the usual bathtub/shower combo. I made a request to be in a room that had a roll in shower. The property graciously provided my accommodation. The room was very clean.

Easy check in, allowed pets but the renovated rooms were off limits due to having a dog so I was given a room that smelled like stale cigarettes, the sink was stopped up, beds and pillows were comfortable. Mini fridge didn't keep stuff cold/frozen.

More than does its job

I wanted a value priced place strictly to just sleep that did not look scary and it did its job with the comfy king size bed, cool A/C, and super hot shower. Will consider again for future trips.

A lower grade diamond in the rough

Let’s be honest. Red Roof Inns aren’t known for being pristine jewels. On the outside, they are drab and unassuming. This one was no different. I was pleasantly surprised at how clean the room was and though it had an industrial clean smell about it, I had no doubt that our housekeeper took good care of things to make the room ready.
