Robbyn
May 31, 2026PROS: The staff was friendly, the room was clean, I had no issues walking outside to smoke because I felt safe in the smoking area, the Pet Policy was affordable. The room rate was affordable.
CONS: The hallway/room had an odor of Marijuana, the walls are thin (you can clearly hear the TV from the next room) if your neighbors aren’t considerate. You can hear noise from above if you are on the 1st floor; like a toddler playing/running around at 1:00 am.
With all this being said, my husband and I would stay here again. The staff was outstanding in dealing with the majority of the CONS listed. Bring a small bottle of Fabreeze for the room and the other CON is covered.

Sep 14, 2025Great Price and Great Stay
The rooms were spacious and so clean! The staff were very friendly and were able to address our issues with the TV right away. We felt secure at this location because a room key is required to access the building. This was our first time at a Red Roof Inn and we will definitely be back!

Dec 21, 2025The room was clean, the sheets were spotless but the comforter could have been cleaner. The heater worked well and I was able to run it at 68 degrees while I was gone so I didn't come back to a cold room on a sub-freezing night.

I could find nothing to complain about.
Very efficient and courteous staff. In 60 years of hotels the room was the cleanist I have ever stayed in. Very quiet. Great bed.
100% a great stay at a reasonable price.

May 18, 2025Average to above average
As many have said, its a great place to lay your head. We were only there for one night because of a sold out show at the Fillmore. Staff was above average. We wished upon arrival that the pool was open but by the look of it we were better off.

Jun 9, 2026Pros: breakfast was okay, you have the choices of making a waffle, eating 2 different kinds of cereals, or a couple different pastries/bagles. No protein and no drinks besides coffee and the gallon of milk they put in a bowl of ice water but don’t worry there are $3 drinks in the vending near front desk.
The room was spacious and the tv was big, we brought our own Roku so I’m not sure how it works also nice deep tub.
They have daily house keeping which you don’t see often anymore.
It’s not in the nicest area but not the worst, I liked that you had to have a keycard or be buzzed in to access the building.
They gave us an hour and a half early check in after I called 3 times
Cons:
THEY WOULD NOT HOLD OUR BAGS WHEN WE FLEW IN. This was the worst thing it caused a plethora of issues for us. I’ve never heard of a hotel not holding bags for guests so we had to figure out things to do for 4 hours with 5 bags.
Like I said not the best area, a LOT of homeless at the chicken box right by the hotel, not their fault but an observation.
Hallways smelled of marijuana everytime we came in & out
Lady said it would be a $50 deposit but charged my card $65, not sure if I got charged extra for early check in or what happened there but made me feel weird.
Over all wouldn’t stay here again but got the job done
