“I had a really good experience staying at the Red Carpet Inn in Starke. The room was very clean and comfortable, and it looked like it had been updated recently. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and made check-in easy. The bed was comfortable, the AC worked great, and I appreciated having a fridge and microwave in the room. For the price, this place is an excellent value. I would definitely stay here again when I’m in the area.”

The check-in was quick and the staff was very nice. The room was just OK nothing great needs a lot of TLC. AC struggled to keep up and it wasn’t even hot out. Not sure I would stay here again.
