Clean, reasonable, older rooms
The decor is very old 80's decor. Nothing fancy. The rooms are old but always clean, no bugs of any sort, comfortable beds and parking right in front of your room. Good selection of places for breakfast in the morning when we leave.

Owner was friendly and helpful with our late check-in. Bed is comfortable. The A/C works well. The cold air is blowing directly at the person's head while sleeping. If the air can be directed to he ceiling would be much better. The diverter valve for the shower is faulty. Water is coming out from the tub spout and shower head at the same time. As a result the shower is very weak and little water comes out. Enough food choices around the Inn. There is a rail line behind the Inn. Train's horn blast woke me up in middle of the night. Price of room is reasonable.

Red Carpet Inn is a decent motel. The floors are hard vinyl, which made it difficult to do my floor exercises. And the bathroom reminded one of a 1970's place. But everything worked just fine. It is owned by a family of Indian Americans and they were very nice and helpful. The area to the south of the hotel is kind of drug ridden, but you wouldn't know from the quiet peace of the hotel. If you are looking for a cheap motel that you need quiet at night and a pleasant owner, this is it.

Clean and comfy
The outside was a little messy but the room was clean and comfortable. The beds were a little high but worked. We were a little startled by the middle of the night train and I felt like My cousin Vinnie but overall it was fine for an over night stay and we will probably stay here again. The staff were super friendly and we felt safe.

The room was nice and clean. The grounds were messy and unkept. There was a lawn chair in the pool and the water was green. There clearly hadn’t been anything done to keep up with the pool. Staff was friendly and attentive

Great little hotel. I still love the single floor hotels that you pull up right to your room. Many times you see this type of hotel and you don’t have high hopes. But this one is amazing. Very clean, comfortable and easy to get to. Not fancy, just comfortable. Try it, I know you will like it.

Clean
At first I was skeptical about the motel because of the outside appearance, but was in town for an event and this was one of the only rooms I could get last minute. The owners were extremely nice upon check in and after getting to see my room, I was pleasantly surprised! The room is a bit dated, but it was so clean. I really can not say enough about how clean it was. Overall, this place is a 10/10! Nice owners and clean!
