10/10 Exceptional

No frills motel with friendly helpful staff
Evan, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room itself was lovely but there were a lot of people loitering and catcalling around the rooms. The shower made a pretty awful screaming sound too! Overall a nice stay but a bit of a sketchy location
Alex, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cleaning staff particularly a very sweet woman by the name of Minnie was very kind and helpful!!
Logan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Safe
Dewan Syed Arman, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Staff are too good and polite but i can see cockroaches and spiders in washroom and also at some places in room
Shashank, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Check in person was not very friendly and a little rude. Property not bad and surrounded by shops and restaurants
Barb, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Smells, heating doesn’t work
JERMAINE, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

People were rude, took forever to get checked in. Room was smelly, the AC was very noisy
Duane, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Red Roof Rubbish!

Its not clean! Don't go!
vernell, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Not bad for 70

It wasn't bad. But the toilet didn't want to flush and the bathroom door handle was way loose.
Jeremy, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

First three rooms they gave me had people already checked in, the last room they gave me didn’t have a TV and the heat was stuck on 65 degrees, I was tired from an already 9hr drive so I just stayed in that room.
Brian, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

We arrived around 930pm and the lobby was full of people waiting for their rooms. Housekeeping is cleaning rooms for people and their 3pm check ins. Apparently it’s been hours per the other people in the lobby.
Amanda, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Ok for the money

Our first room was filthy. Luckily they had another room and it was much better. The front desk staff was great but they need a better cleaning crew.
James, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Floor wasn’t washed before my stay and smoke alarm kept going off randomly through the night.
Jesse, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Black mold in shower, no towels, front desk called me at one am and again at 6 am and said someone claimed they were with me and wanted a key to the room. I’ll never stay there again.
John, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

I didnt like anything. The beds were old. The pillows were older. Bed bugs and pubic hairs on the dirty bed. I couldnt even go to bed after a Halloween party. Had to drive 40 miles home. Strongly advise to not stay at this property. I stay at Red Roof in Belden Village all the time and its clean and no bed bugs. Waiting on my refund. Calling health department.
Candice, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Beds were too soft. Our cards for the doors would stop working randomly. Walls were thin enough to hear others across the building
MRG_, 6-night trip

2/10 Poor

I arrived at 8:30 for a 3:00 check-in, and I was told that it would be a 45-minute wait. Two hours later, I got a room. One bed was stained, the other had a dead bug in it. It took another 30 minutes to get a new room.
Jim, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The pictures are completely misleading. It's a very trashy place and my room looked much worse than advertised.

6/10 Good

Just ok

Our initial room had no heat. We were not informed at check-in we would need to re-activate our room key daily. There were several dogs staying there and there was dog feces on the steps. Lots of needed repairs and upkeep
2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Toilet was back up and sick was backed up and they wouldn’t give me a new room, “fully booked for holidays” it was either take the room with no toilet and sink or be out In the cold. Room should be refunded
Dom, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Worth the money? Probably not.

Only one person working check-in on probably the busiest day of the year (Solar Eclipse). Room wasnt ready after we checked in. Over an hour after check-in before we got in the room. Smelled like dog. The bed was probably last replaced when Clinton was president.
Ian, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Homeless people living in the stairways and parking lot, dirty conditions and the entire place is in serious need of a renovation. On the bright side though its cheap and if you're looking to buy drugs you shouldnt have any problem there
Eric, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Floor was too dirty
Y, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

DO Not Stay Here

Very nasty place.looked to be a homeless shelter. Tried to check in at 2:50 was told we would have to wait till 3:00..fair enough..but the absolute urine stench from the lobby even before we could go in was repulsive. We DID NOT stay. Feared for our safety as well as cleanliness concerns.
Sue, 1-night trip
