Tanja

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
They don’t have a water machine in the hotel, which is unacceptable. Only small bottles of water are available for purchase. This is the first hotel I’ve stayed at that doesn’t offer basic drinking water. In addition, I showed a picture of a cockroach to the front desk receptionist. I usually stay at Red Roof hotels, but after this experience, I will never return to this location.

Walls were paper thin. We could hear every word of the neighbors conversation. The couch was faux leather and the exterior was peeling off. Pillows were flat with no support. Between the uncomfortable bed and noise with the hotel, there was no rest.

Full of roaches. Staff wouldn’t give us our money back when we left at 11PM and drove 2 hours back home so we wouldn’t have to stay in this terrible motel. Please don’t stay here.

This is an average older Red Roof Inn. It's definitely showing signs of age, however, it was clean. The shower was hot, the AC worked fine along with the TV. The breakfast was nothing to write home about. A waffle iron and cold cereal. There was hot coffee, milk and juice along with muffins. That's it. Would I stay there again? For the price, probably. It's a 2 star and that's about it.

It was a perfect spot for a quick overnight stay however they had just remodeled the room that we were assigned to and there was no coffee pot. There is also no iron or ironing board in the room., overall you get what you paid for it was nice and clean and serve the purpose for one night!!

The room was clean but there was no light in the bathroom vanity, and there were only two towels in a room for 4 people. Breakfast was very poor, there were only waffles and bread, no juice, no fruit, not even water to drink. Although I did not swim in the pool, it looked neglected.

We were pleasantly surprised with how clean the room appeared, especially liked the hardwood floors as ya never know what carpets are hiding! Beyond this, my only complaints would be the extremely THIN comforters and the sketchy looking tub, as if I were the owner would sand down & reglaze all those that looked dirty, dinge or chipped. Other than that, the staff was friendly and helpful, thanks!

Ok for 1 night

Floor dirty so wear socks until bedtime. Pressure in shower nonexistent so showered under a dribble but a little later husband had normal shower pressure. Don't get excited about breakfast, it's just white toast, blueberry mini muffin, 3 types of cold cereal, waffles with syrup. No butter for the toast or waffles. No juice or fresh fruit.
