We travel with our dog and usually stay at Red Roof Inns because they are pet friendly. Some are better than others, but thi s is by far the WORST we've ever encountered. It was a non-smoking room that stunk of smoke. The rug was so dirty and stained we could not take our shoes off. The chair was filthy.... More

This is the WORST Red Roof Inn I have ever stayed in. Door lock did not work right, carpet filthy, mattress worn out, lumpy pillows, bathroom fixtures broken and just a terrible room atmosphere. Outside ice machine was not working because management said "it was too cold outside." I checked out after one day never to return.

Needed an overnight stay on a long trip. Definitely wouldn't have stayed here more than that. The rooms smelled like smoke and the sheets were stained yellow. There were cigarette burns in the blankets. Stray hairs in the beds and in the bathroom. One of the sealed plastic cups had a lipstick stain on it. I've stayed in some crummy... More

We have stayed here on at least a half dozen times, maybe more. It is a reasonable overnight flop house. It is basic. There are two room types, we prefer the 'business class' which has a little more room and amenities. The pet policy is really what keeps bringing us back. We don't usually take advantage of the Cracker Barrel... More

The hotel and room is very old, dirty and outdated. The carpet was very dirty, rumpled, torn and smelly. The sheet on the bed was turned inside out thus, making me think that it was not changed from the previous guest. The tub water drained very slowly. There weren't a coffee pot, frig, microwave, iron or hair dryer in the... More
