    It’s listed as a 2 star on multiple websites I looked at. They definitely live up to that standard. For $59.99 a night this was a decent hotel. We only stayed for 2 nights which was plenty. It’s somewhat updated with a charging port and the tv in the room. The fridge and microwave were clean and nice. HOWEVER, the heat/air conditioning did not work and our sheets had big stains on them that obviously didn’t wash out. We tried cracking a window to get a breeze going (it was only 39 degrees outside) but the window is very sticky. I also didn’t feel 100% comfortable because none of the doors to the building locked even though it “required” a key card and they had zip ties on the door to prevent it from locking. There is a Red Roof inn closer to our home town that is newer and more secure. If I had to stay in another location it would be have to be more secure.

    I stayed at Red Roof Inn for 2 nights nearly a year ago and thought is was a nice place for the price and considering it's age. Now I'm here again, for 7 nights, because I remember my experience the last time I stayed. Let me just say that if I could give this property more than 5 stars I would. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, Rooms and common areas are clean. Rooms are decent size and offer all the amenities I need, and then some. I wouldn't hesitate to refer any friend or family. And, I would not hesitate to stay here again.

    The room was small and musky smelling. The Tv remote didn't work...needed batteries. Had to get staff to help with both the odor and remote. The already poorly lit vanity had a bulb out. The shower had warm water when turned up all the way. The dining area was ridiculously small for a 100 room hotel. It is about the size of an averaged sized hotel room and the food selection is below average. Bed comfort is average. The entire hotel needs to be updated. On the positive side the staff is friendly and the room is clean. In summary, $90 a night doesn't buy you much, anymore. This leaves ownership and management as the problems. Nothing to be proud of here. This hotel ranks lower than average for its price range. It is highly unlikely that we will stay at this specific hotel again. We are currently staying here and will update if needed.

    This is a real bargain for the $buck. Jen is a very nice front desk gal. The Owner is an awesome friendly genuine Man. Had a chance to meet him during check in yesterday. Very clean nice spacious rooms. One of the better places I've seen. Folks coming through this area don't pass this motel up. Make this your designated stop. Thumbs up to the Red Roof Inn/Econo Lodge. Great breakfast, good Folks here. 👍👍👍🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷

    I start out with management and staff were very nice. Rooms were very clean. Personally we thought the beds could be a little more comfortable, the bed was just too firm for us. The breakfast was pretty good, I only wish it would be a little longer as far as time. The lady taking care of the food was also very nice. We will be back. Plus there are plenty of restaurants in the area.

    Was an ok stay. Service was nice. Bed was stiff and towels were very cheap. Such is life. Wouldnt recommend it but certainly wouldn't deter someone from staying.

    Was not pleased with my stay here, and will probably not stay here again. Before I share my complaints, the good things: cheap price location & pet friendly. The cons: walls are paper thin, room was dirty, beds had previously slept in sheets and pillow cases, there was garbage by the bedside, the fridge even though on normal setting froze my daughters milk. The thermostat did not function properly, the room was cold at first and then it was soo hot I had to remove my daughters clothes for fear she would overheat, even though heat was turned down. The curtain in the shower was dirty. It seems like this place was just put back together after guests checked out with out actually cleaning it, kind of like how a little kid cleans a room. I commented at the front desk but was simply told they would pass on the comment and that we should have called front desk last night and let them know. When you have been on road all day, it’s late and it’s 4 hours past babies bed time one doesn’t necessarily want to pack everything up and move rooms. They did nothing as far as restitution goes.

    For the price of $60 a night this motel rates high. The beds are comfortable and the room has a microwave plus refrigerator. The bathrooms are smaller but clean and nice. Breakfast is very impressive for the price point. Plus you can have pets at no charge!!

    It's okay, found mold on ceiling in first room they was trying to put us in, but the staff was quick to change our room, and follow to room to make sure it was okay for us, so I give that a 5 star for service, but hotel could use a elevator, and few better things

  • 1/5 Ty G. 6 years ago on Google
    I had a non smoking room but the haze of smoke was in my room. We woke up the next morning sick feeling and coughing from being in the smoke all night. The room was dirty. No one had moved the chair to vacuum in quite a while because the dust was hairy. There were crumbs underneath the bed. The dresser had something sticky in one of the drawers. The pictures and headboard of the beds were covered in dust. Breakfast was not appetizing after we tried everything. Now, the staff was wonderful! Very friendly.

  • 5/5 Ani R. 5 years ago on Google
    A clean and spacious room no frills room. The check in process went quick and easy, and our room was just as promised. The room had a comfy bed, good hot water, mini-fridge & microwave, and a desk/work space. With budget prices and easy access to the freeway, the Red Roof Inn was a perfect night's rest during our road trip.

  • 5/5 Peggy J. 8 years ago on Google
    Queen room had all the amenities desired: fridge, microwave, coffee maker, iron, ironing board, desk, nice TV. Room was clean and comfortable. There was a dog show in town and many dogs in the hotel, which was great. There were no dog smells, or any problems with any of the dogs. Great place to stay!

  • 4/5 Kim B. 7 years ago on Google
    The front desk staff was great! From checking in, to asking to switch rooms, the two ladies were nothing but friendly and accommodating. We did switch rooms because the first one hadn't been cleaned the best.. but we didn't have issues with the second room. The only real noises I heard were some doors opening in the hall & some talking- nothing out of the ordinary for a hotel.. The breakfast was great! Hot coffee & waffles go far with me Overall the stay was great. I would definitely recommend this to a friend & would stay here again if we visit.

    Clean,quiet,the owner is awesome...

  • 2/5 Sherrie H. 4 years ago on Google
    Customer service sucked. Couldn't get the key card machine to work for our room. She ran up to our room to unlock the door while leaving my checkin info on the counter for others to see. No receipt to prove we had a room there. Room was not that clean and in need of minor repairs. Hole in wall in the bathroom and on a door. Carpet hasn't been cleaned. There was smell of cigarette smoke in the hallways. Small parking lot so had to park on the street. On the plus side, beds were comfortable.

  • 1/5 Jasey H. 4 years ago on Google
    Sheets had various hairs and a couple pieces of grass when we finally got into the room. Several spots reeked of weed. Lovely.

  • 3/5 Mrs. H. 6 years ago on Google
    Watch your footing if it snows. They didn't put salt down till the next day when we were there. Thermostat difficult to manage, seemed it was cold or hot in the room, which was stuffy. Coffee maker in room, no hot beverage cups to go with it. Breakfast mediocre. Coffee weak. Friendly staff, clean and safe. Affordable, but I will avoid. Spouse slept badly due to thermostat.

    They let us have our German Shepherd. There was a charge for him I had no problem paying. Room was clean.staff friendly providing great service.

  • 1/5 Tiffany S. 4 years ago on Google
    I dont expect a lot from a $60 a night motel but I do expect basic cleanliness. This place failed miserably. My shower was visibly dirty! I took a washcloth to the bottom and it was filled with dirt! That's disgusting! Definitely pass on this place!!

  • 3/5 Jeffery M. 3 years ago on Google

  • 1/5 Kristene J. 3 years ago on Google

  • 1/5 Vicki V. 4 years ago on Google
    Room was nice however the "guests" are questionable walking/running the hallways arguing or outside smoking whatever it is. Loud place. Would not stay here again. People out wandering the parking lot at odd hours. Police arresting a "guest" was interesting. 2 nights here were the worst. So many other options nearby.

  • 4/5 Liam J. B. 4 years ago on Google

  • 1/5 Katie P. 4 years ago on Google
    The first room appeared to what have looked like blood stains on the carpet. I went downstairs and asked for a room switch. The front receptionist was VERY nice and gave us a new room. The new room had a piece of fried chicken on the desk chair. Eeeekk. I however sucked it up and just kept the chair pushed in as we only needed to sleep 1 night.

  • 5/5 Shaina H. 4 years ago on Google
    Friendly staff, we are hauling a uhaul trailer and they helped us find a place to park when all the spots were taken. The location was easy to get to and find, rooms were clean, beds were comfy, check in and out was easy. It was exactly what we needed for a one night stay. 10/10 would stay again!
