We were locked out of our room for 20mins after coming back from dinner while the front desk found the manual key to unlock the door. Which was quickly followed by my son laying in bed and having a huge cockroach crawl on him. We were moved rooms because it was late and we just wanted to get on the road early in the morning. Our new room had no shower towels, the tv did not work, and the shower was either freezing or broiling. The front desk staff said he left a message for the manager and we would be called the next morning about all of our issues. We never received a call. Because we booked through Expedia, he said we would have to go through them for the refund. Expedia has since tried to contact the property and hasn’t gotten a response so our issue is now closed. So nice to know that NO ONE is responsible for this situation. Both Expedia and Red Roof Inn are passing the buck to each other and no one cares. Stay somewhere else.

Room smells like it was never cleaned. Stinks like sweat. Soap dispenser doesn’t work so have to wash hands with shampoo. Room smells like it was never cleaned and the smell of sweat is so annoying. I need a full refund for my money. Absolutely ridiculous.

The room was so dirty. It had blood on the wall, hand towels, comforter and floor were all dirty. The shower had someone's hair hanging off the shower head. The vents and toilet paper holder were all smashed in. We ended up checking out early but was told we couldn't get refunded for the day we didn't stay because we booked through a third party. We were not happy at all.

Refusal to Cancel Booking for wrong date

We didn’t get to stay here. When booking, I accidentally clicked on Friday Oct 11 instead of Oct 4 when we were heading south for vacation. We thought it would be a good halfway stop for the family. I was lucky and only booked 1 of the 2 rooms I needed. Within 1 minute, I realized my mistake and messaged the hotel. No reply. The next morning I called the hotel and they said it was non refundable. I said that is fine but if they would cancel the room that I would actually book 2 rooms for my family of 6. They said the manager would have to do it. I then sent customer service through hotels.com a message to help. They had no success. Finally I called the hotel and explained the situation again. I tried diligently to explain that I actually needed 2 rooms for Oct 4 and all they had to do was cancel the reservation that I accidentally made for Oct 11. They refused and actually lost out on business. They can have the 1 night rate that I paid through hotels.com but I encourage everyone to pass on booking at this hotel as they are greedy people that don’t understand customer service and business. I hope all of you read this review.
