I have stayed at this Red Roof lots of times in the past while traveling to Richmond, but it’s been about a year since my last visit. After checking in and getting my room key we arrived to find the door to the room already open. There was a strong smell of marijuana in the room and several open drinks in the fridge. There seems to be a group of permanent residents at the hotel now that treat the public spaces like a playground, with dogs running loose and kids playing soccer in the parking lot, bouncing balls off of other guests cars. When me, my wife and my daughter arrived back to the room for the evening there was a man sleeping in the lobby in several chairs that he had pushed together. We shut ourselves in for the night, but he was still there in the morning when we went for breakfast. Combined with the overall state of the room, (no soap in the soap dispensers, only two towels for three people) I don’t think we will be returning to stay here, which is a shame because I remember after this site was renovated and it was a very nice place.
