Liked: Cleanliness
Check-in was efficient and easy. But was met with overwhelming smell of air fresheners. The elevator was like stepping into a marijuana smoke bomb, likely from the people who got off just before I got on, hallway and room had the same air freshener smell. Room a/c was set to 60 when I walked in…way too cold. Room itself was decent, but holes in the curtain, damage to the HVAC wall unit but didn’t affect performance, shower water pressure was low but tolerable, the tub spout, diverted and drain were rusty. The shower curtain didn’t keep water in the tub, so the floor was covered in water after my shower. Cracks in plaster in bathroom. Check-out was efficient, but I wasn’t able to get a receipt, was told I’d have to get that from Travelocity. For a budget hotel it wasn’t horrible…I’ve stayed in worse.

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.
