Hotel Red Rose

What guests think

Across recent reviews, Hotel Red Rose by Townhouse Covington I-64 draws mixed feedback: guests praise friendly front-desk staff and occasional quiet, but many report dated rooms, maintenance problems, unpleasant odors, and cleanliness issues, with on-site dining frequently closed or limited.

The location is convenient for Covington and nearby Hot Springs, though rideshare availability can be limited. Room comfort and allocation are inconsistent, with reports of hard pillows or beds, mismatched bed types, and occasional noise. Suitable for travelers needing a simple overnight stop more than a full-service experience.

The beds were full size not queens as requested. The room was clean, and well kept. I was a little put off by having to park my car at the other end of the building from my room. I was also upset that the restaurant kitchen was closed for remodeling. We had stayed here a few years ago, and had fond memories of the restaurant. I hope it will be open again before our next visit. I hope in the future that whomever makes the decisions on the motel, reconsiders the coffee that is in the rooms, I know its complimentary but it is by far the worst coffee we ever tried to drink By all means if you need help choosing a new one please contact me.

We were not expecting the 4 Seasons but this hotel was far below our expectations. Run down, restaurant closed, no breakfast. But what really broke it for us was that the floor of our room had not been mopped in a long time. We spilled so water and mopped it up with a towel, the towel came back black as soot. My wife refused to even spend one night and we left immediately and went to a nicer placer right up the street.

We had a nice Non-Smoking 2 double bedroom at the Magnuson, you could tell that the owners were improving the property, but the floors were very dirty. My bare feet felt sticky and when I put on socks they got dirty. There was visible dirt on the bathroom floor behind the door and around the toilet and tub. There were cigarette burn marks on the tub. The room smelled of cigarette smoke.

The property is old and poorly maintained. While the receptionist was friendly, nearly everything else was disappointing. The room showed clear water damage on the ceiling, with parts of the ceiling hanging down, and half of the curtains were stained. The carpet had multiple large stains, and the refrigerator was so loud it had to be unplugged. The shower and sink were filthy, with mold around the edges. Additionally, my reservation was for a king bed for two people, but at check-in I was told the only available option was a room with two double beds. This was especially inconvenient when traveling with a spouse.

Hotel has under the name of "Magnuson Hotel" Dingy wash cloths towels. Stained tub. Stains on carpet. Black grainy material in bath water. No soap, no shampoo. Did not clean room on second day. Shower did not work, had to call maintaince to turn off bathtub. Breakfast? cereal. Mini donuts, coffee. Restaurant closed. We will never stay at this property again. Note, I stayed here years ago and it was a nice place, good restaurant, friendly staff. Looks like years of neglect and poor property management. Fix up this property, or it will fail.

Room was super outdated and nasty. There was cobwebs in ever corner of each room near ceilings. Cobwebs behind end tables so thick it would catch anything that fell behind there. Toilet seat barely attached to toilet. Hair on walls in bath/shower area. Refrigerator bot working. Area outside door was covered in trash, spills on walkway and smelt like puke. Room way overpriced for what you got. Will not ever stay here again!
