This hotel has weak communication skills, doesn’t have clean/pest free rooms. You’ll literally have to share rooms that you paid for with roaches.!!! They’re aware of the infestation an only want to spray cheap pest spray that doesn’t work. Don’t waste your money staying here.!!!!

Fire alarm

Perks: pet friendly, full sized refrigerator, restaurant on property. Decent break spot for long distance travelers. Down side: exits held open with stones so smokers could enter and exit constantly, fire alarm went off at 1:30am and wouldn’t stop, lights were still flashing when we left.

We booked and paid online through Expedia as we always do for our company and when we arrived the hotel charged so many additional fees it was crazy. We had cockroaches in our rooms, rooms were filthy and worn down, our heater didn’t work only blew air out-no heat, we had to request towels numerous times, were charged for our registered service dog, the website said they offered continental breakfast, no breakfast.. this place was a joke!! Horrible!!

The truth about this hotel...

I will start this by saying the two desk employees that I interacted with were very pleasant. The good stops there. This hotel is a bait and switch. The pictures you see of the entrance are accurate...very nice looking. Once you walk 100 feet past the entrance, the actual air quality changes and you realize this place is not what it is presented to be. For the sake of space, I will list out the issues that I had - Holes in the bathroom walls. Missing cabinet handles in the kitchen area. Unclean linens in the bathroom. Broken window blinds. Kitchen faucet not attached to the counter. No wares in the kitchen (plates, cups, paper towels, utensils, etc...) Cigarette burn holes in the sheets on the bed (in a non smoking room) No ironing board in room. Broken lock on front door. Unsecured doors at all side entrances to the property. Drug use by occupants. I could go on...(honestly, there is more to the list...), but that should give you an idea of what this property is. The pictures you see are a complete mis-representation of what the experience is. If you are traveling alone and need a place to crash for a few hours... then this is an option. This is not a place for families or a base of operations for a vacation.

Booked a room with 2 queen beds for 3 people and 2 small dogs. On arrival got a room with a king size bed to share with my wife and friend. Asked lobby to get us another room for next day, NOT even a single effort was made towards a new accommodation for what we paid for. We should get a half refund at least. Bed had stained sheets and torn comforter, smelled moldy inside the room plus cigarette hallway smell very strong. Broken toilet seat and flush handle. Shower water pressure was really low. Overall NOT a very pleasant experience, will never recommend or stay at this place. Red Roof should close down operations at this location.

This hotel used to be nice. I found dead roaches in my room then they transferred me to another room. That was even more disgusting. They had no towels for the room that I was in but they transferred me to smelt like cigarettes. When I ask for a non-smoking room the bedsheets were dirty as hell to make them switch it, this place just went down the drain to whoever the owner is. I hope you turn this place around.

I booked a stay in a room that was supposed to be smoke free. It REEKS of smoke. The room is literally damp. My socks are wet from walking around on the floors. The towels smell like mildew and mold. One of them was crusty to the touch. There are cockroaches EVERYWHERE. The room had very obviouslt not even been vacuumed. The building is disgusting in the halls.

Worst experience EVER!!!

Roaches, roaches, roaches. I called down to desk twice all I got was an I’m sorry. I had to check out early. Had to track down manager after already leaving messages and when I finally spoke to manager he said no notes was left from front desk people making him aware of situation. No compensation was offered just a possible future discount for when I return. WHAT?!?!!! I won’t EVER return to be using that. Not taking this serious is a big problem. I spent $100 to stay with roaches ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! Best Western plus I found for another night: great full hot breakfast, indoor pool, gym, few dollars cheaper and NO ROACHES!! So sorry didn’t find them sooner. RED ROOF/HOME TOWNE DO BETTER!!!!!!!!!

This hotel was by far one of the worst places I have booked. We didn’t even get to stay. We opened the door to our room and it smelled of smoke so much that we were able to smell it as soon as the door was open. When we went down to the front desk the lady named Viva was very rude and not understanding, she walked away during our conversation as if she didn’t care. She argued with us about getting a receipt or proof we didn’t stay there. Overall property was horrible, dirty and run down. Staff were terrible. Pool was closed and the lady at front desk said she didn’t know when it would open. Police were called when I was checking in due to the fact they weren’t returning a ladies deposit. Overall terrible experience.

Do not stay here.

Staff not at the desk when I arrived. Waiting 20 minutes before they returned. Used the bathroom in lobby that had no toilet paper or paper towels. Trash piled in a hallways. Burn on the bedding on my bed. Would have never stayed if I didn’t arrive so late and have no other options.

The Worst

When i arrived...the room was overbooked and they said they had called me. Unfortunately i was driving so when i didnt call back them back they assumed i was not coming even though it was before check in and charged me. So because of that i did not have the option to fond another place. So i could only get two rooms with kings instead of what i had reserved. Then because i had a pet i was sequestered to the old part of the hotel. It was dirty, there was drug use, there was fighting all night. It really was quite disgusting. It was dog friendly yet there were poisonous ant traps in the bath. My poor elderly relatives. Never, ever again!
