Took my wedding ring off to make sure I didn't loose it in the bed. Left it there along with my wife's meds and called 2 hours after and they kept it. Hassle at the front desk, dirty and unsafe. Never again.

Good location but horrible bed

Hotel was clean, but the mattress on our bed was horrible! It had to be a really old mattress and the springs were broken. The cleaning products they used throughout the hotel left a strong smell which wasn't pleasant. Great location and price though.

Not Recommended

I've stayed at this hotel many years ago and at the time it was in great condition. Based on this past experience, I decided to book with Red Roof again. Well, to my surprise the place was pretty much beat up and the hallway rug was so filthy and smelly. The bedroom I received had pubes all over the bathroom floor. Needless to say, I will never stay here in the future.

Won't stay here again

I stayed in the king size room, bed was cheap and uncomfortable! Very thin mattress for a king bed. I've stayed at other red roof inn's and their beds were nothing like this. Black mold in shower. Overall, room was clean and next to shopping centers. Location was great! I am STILL awaiting my INCIDENTAL DEPOSIT.

It was just ok. Continental breakfast would’ve made it better but we deal with what we have.
