We booked this room for 3 people, 2 queen Beds. When we arrived, some sketchy guys in the parking lot stared at us until we went inside. The room smells of mildew and had recent water stains on the ceiling. Only had 2 towels and no wash cloths for bathing. 1/4 roll of toilet paper and no extra. There wasn't a coffee pot in the room, and the pillows were terrible. The one bed popped everytime you turned over. 2 thin sheets only on the beds. I worried all night long that our vehicle would be gone when we woke up. I won't be back!

So many great amenities, it’s hard to know where to begin. Our visit started with the ear-splitting shrill of the alarm clock going off to help guide us to our room. When we opened the door, we were greeted with the chill of 63-degree air-conditioning, which was great because we did not need to refrigerate our food. Having every pillow labeled “firm” saved us the mental fatigue of having to decide which one to use. The room was tastefully decorated with wires and plugs from where the smoke detector was removed from the wall. Taking a shower was fun as we searched for the perfect temperature between “too hot” and “scalding.” And finally, we finished the visit with an exciting adventure game of “where’s the toilet paper?” Seriously, it was clean, but other than that the place was very poorly maintained.

When we entered the property the first thing we noticed was the smell and the terrible upkeep. The elevator smelled awful, and had sticky areas that you could tell weren’t being cleaned. Upon entering the room, we noticed the ironing board was old, nasty and dented. The chair was peeling, and had dark spots on it. We requested to be moved to a different room. Our second room was worse, sadly. This room had a bed that was barely made, the floor was sticky, could tell it wasn’t clean. The chair and ironing board was the same as the previous room. Upon entering the bathroom, it was disgusting. I had to clean it myself, as it was late and I didn’t feel like moving or causing a fuss. There was body hair in the tub almost like someone shaved in there and the housekeeper didn’t clean the tub. The sheets were dirty, spots all over the pillowcases, and dry blood under the sheets. This hotel is poorly kept, I do not recommend staying in this hotel. My fiancé and I had to stay at this hotel for last minute booking, but we will not be coming back, nor will we seek to stay at another Red Roof Hotel.

I did not like the fact that even though we had the "Do Not Disturb" sign on our door someone came into our room and dumped the trash and took my much needed eye drops from the bedside. They did not make the bed or do anything else in the room. STRANGE... I reported it to the front desk and was told they had 2 new employees and they would check with the day manager

The staff at this property were all wonderfully kind and helpful. I only have positive things to say about those working the front desk and the breakfast area! Kudos to them! Unfortunately, the property itself is in need of some TLC. The pillows were stained and awful. (The staff did provide different, slightly better ones promptly upon request!) The chair was ripped, paint was peeling and there was some mold around the baseboards of my room. Therefore my allergies kicked in and it was not extremely pleasant. I was also allergic to whatever cleaning agent they use so my eyes were not super comfy! Furthermore, both machines in the fitness room were broken/out of order/would not turn on. The sheets were clean and most hotels I could afford were booked so I stayed 2 of the 3 nights I had reserved.

The hotel is showing it's age. The side chair in our room was ragged and we didn't dare sit in it. The laundry had one working washer and one dryer, the others were out of order. The bathroom sink was clogged. It's our first (and last) try with Red Roof. One high point, the woman who worked the breakfast area was wonderful. Everything was kept clean and was constantly refreshed.

My room floor was very dirty to the point where I wouldn’t take my shoes off. I cleaned it with cleaner and a towel and it was shocking all the filth that came up. I also had dried vomit on the dust ruffle of the bed. The floors were addressed and cleaned properly the second night. The dust ruffle was not. It is an inexpensive hotel but the clearing needs to be addressed. I don’t think I would stay there again.
