Disliked: Amenities
Comfortable temperature, no bath towel just two hand towels and two wash cloths, room was next to breeze way and trash can was next to my door so I was kept awake till 1:00am with people dropping in trash and talking. A lot of horn honking in the parking lot till midnight. Very little soap available. My first time at any Red Roof Inn, probably my last. Tv worked well, the shower worked well and fridge. Freezer was frozen over so I could not put my freezer packs in to re-freeze. Microwave was good. A can of soda had been left inside the freezer and was ready to explode from expansion, I threw it out. Check in was pleasant and courteous.

The TV remote had no batteries, the hotel room was not as advertised, the towels were stained, the tub was stained and 2 minutes after checking in some loitering outside your hotel asked if they could bum a cigarette. Every time I left the room that same woman was standing by someones hotel room door.

Full of roaches. Doesn't enforce no smoking policy, doesn't offer compensation for illness due to allowing smokers in adjacent rooms. Gen'l manager doesn't return calls. No seals around any adjacent room doors nor entrance doors between room and parking lot.

I came in late after some stock car races. Drove up an hour after races to make the drive home a little shorter. Tried to check in and was told my reservation had been cancelled because after 8:00 pm all Expedia reservations are cancelled. Had to drive another 21/2 hours to find a room

Nhân viên khách sạn chặn ở cửa khi chúng tôi đến check in và không quan tâm chúng tôi sẽ qua đêm ở đâu với lý do over book ,không cần hỏi chúng tôi tên gì hay book khi nào, thậm chí chúng tôi cần dùng nhà vệ sinh trước khi rời đi cô ấy cũng từ chối . Thái độ của cô ta làm chúng tôi cảm thấy mình bị kỳ thị chủng tộc. Chúng tôi quá thất vọng và sẽ vĩnh viễn quên đi cái tên "RED ROOF INN" trong suốt cuộc đời còn lại của chúng tôi.

Take them off your list.

Take this off your list of places to stay. We tried three rooms before we finally determined we couldn't stay. One room was overpowering with cat smell, second one heavy smoke smell and the final room the toilet was broken. The only good thing about this place was the staff. Now the problem I have is getting my refund for my non stay. They told me I had to get it from Hotel.com???but I can't get ahold of them.

I was looking forward to my stay here after seeing so many 5 star reviews, but I was sorely disappointed. First off, we killed 3 roaches in the bathroom. Despite it being a smoke free room, it reaked of cigarette smoke. Lots of cosmetic damage, most notably the toilet paper holder broken off the wall and hook for clothes in the bathroom pulled off the door. The mattresses had plastic on them, so whenever you shifted in bed it sounded like you were rolling around on a pile of grocery bags, and the pillows were hard and flat. There were 3 of us in the room, but they only gave us 2 towels, and when we asked for another they weren't friendly about it. There were shampoo and shower gel dispensers in the shower but they were empty, no small ones anywhere either, we ended up having to go buy our own shampoo and soap at Walmart. Not a great experience whatsoever.
