The beds were nice .. the room had old curtains stained shower curtains stained wooded floors .. the house keeping lady didn't announce herself and just busted in my room while I was still sleeping scared me half to death banging on the door.. the light switches next to bed didnt work at all .. will not be staying back at this location ..there is no lobby just a walk up drive thru booth that was poorly signed .. I walked passed that door like 5 times before realizing that was where I was supposed to go to check in

I decided to give Red Roof a 2nd chance since another location I stayed at was absolutely awful! This one was a little better but not worth the $85/night. I like motels because of having that quick access to the outside with a dog and convenience of being close to my car. I stayed on the 1st floor which was not carpeted but not sure what it was. Maybe peel and stick? The corners on many pieces stuck up creating a tripping and injury hazard. The room was aesthetically in bad shape. The clientele was a bit to be desired too. The ice machine was sad but with patience, you could eventually fill an ice bucket. The bed was comfy but the sheets were dry and scratchy. Needless to say, I won’t be staying at anymore Red Roofs when I’ve stayed at nicer motels for less.

NOT ACCOUNTABLE OR PROFESSIONAL ABOUT THINGS THAT IS WRONG WITH THEIR ESTABLISHMENT!!!.. So The room didnt look bad at 1st glance but after a good look theirs problems..The microwave was filthy inside, TV didn't work right, and their was hair and dirt under and behind furniture. outlets were hanging halfway out of the wall, and the bed linens were stained. Extremely strong chemical odor in room gave me headache. 3 roaches come crawling out on the night stand between the beds and all over the phone in room! Another ran across floor in front of the clerk after we went and told her! She acted like it was no big deal and refused to refund us so we could get a room elsewhere. Instead they offered us the room right above the 1ST one even though I had specifically requested 1st floor room due to health reasons. Refused us any other room even though they had several empty ones and on top of all that we Still didn't get even a discount for the inconvenience and aggravation of having to go through that situation even though it was clearly due to the hotels negligence and I ended up sleeping in my vehicle and lost 100$ ...

I had a non-smoking room, but it was very much smoked in for a very long time. The smell was strong and pervasive, and all the air fresheners in the world did not mask it. You could smell it while trying to go to sleep. The room was neat, but there were many signs it was not well maintained (One faucet did not work, the toilet handle was semi broken, the faucet in the tub leaked constantly, etc.).

I didn’t expect everything to be great, but I chose this motel for the roll out bed they have listed but didn’t have,there was hair all around the sink, spilled shampoo all in the tub,and hair on the washcloths as if someone shaved and they didn’t clean it. Under the toilet seat had urine as well. Beds were fine, check in and out was easy and neighborhood was safe. It was a one and done for me though.

Hotel is not maintained. Pictures very deceiving not as updated as it appears. Room was rundown furniture tops were all warping. Vent fan in bathroom missing. Counters all had cigarette burns. Bathroom door didn't actually close. Floor not only filthy to the point of only walking barefoot for 10 minutes that I had to wash my feet it was completely worn down between the beds. Dead roach in the water reservoir for the iron. I turned the frig all the way up and still lost all my frozen food. Wish I had read the reviews prior to booking.

We stayed here for our daughters travel ball tournament. We had 3 people in our family that stayed here. Upon arrival, there were only 2 towels and wash clothes in the room and we were told that we would have to wait until the next day to get an extra one. Also, our television did not work, and when we called the front desk, they wanted us to fix it ourselves and was telling us what to do. I told them that we paid for the room with a working television and they needed to fix it, and they finally did. On day 2, we had to leave early to get to the ball park. We got back to the room around 4pm, and we were told that we could not get towels or wash clothes because it was after 3pm. I was over it by this point, and they did finally give us towels and wash clothes. The television did not work again on day 2, and we called the desk again, and they told us it was because a storm was coming in. We fiddled with the television long enough that we finally got it to work. On day 3, they did finally leave towels in our room, but again - only 2. This time I went to the desk in person, and went off about how ridiculous this was. Also, paint was splattered all over the floor and on the counter in the bathroom. I would definitely skip this place.

This was the worse experience I’ve ever had at any stay. To start I was charged for an extra night for early check in which I’ve never heard of anything like that. Just to be put in a room with no shower head or knobs to turn the water on. The tv,microwave and also refrigerator was not working. Also the ac unit would stop working making the room hot and uncomfortable . After having surgery I needed to lay down and couldn’t physically move my things on my own to another room after my ride had dropped me n left. The staff told me if I wanted to check out then leave and that they were not going to refund me or give me any discounts for their errors. It was hair all in the shower and roaches crawling from behind dresser. I called hr and the location then wanted to offer 15 percent off my next stay like I’ll ever stay there again and wth is 15 percent.im going to call everyone I can this property needs to be shut down!!!!

Upon arriving the woman named Christine checked me in. Immediately she was rude, incredibly sarcastic. The room keys kept deactivating (no I did not have them by my phone). She was extremely hostile. I had the do not disturb on the door and the cleaning lady knocked which I replied 2x no thank you and she opened my door. There were water bugs and other bugs also crawling around. The water for the shower was cold and the towels were very rough. The water that came out of the sink sprayed all over. Don’t recommend

I have requested a refund from the property. The room smelled like smoke, and the were people living in cars in the parking lot. I felt unsafe with my 2 16 yr old boys. The response from the property was that the people living in the parking lot “weren’t hurting anyone.” This is unacceptable. If the property or hotels.com continues to refuse refunding me for the nights I didn’t stay then I will be forced to continue these bad reviews for the property and hotels com

The hotel was a good value and location was convenient, and even walking distance to a Waffle House. The check-in process was OK (manager on duty not overly welcoming or friendly…), beds were comfortable, room was clean, although it may be time to replace the towels. The motion sensor light in the bathroom was a nuisance (turned off twice while showering).
