NOISE NOISE NOISE People out in the hall at midnight talking, doors slamming, walls so thin I could hear conversations. The worst was the mini fridge - loud!
And all of the soap dispensers were empty.
There were brown stains on the rim of the tub.
It was so bad I didn't stay for my prepaid 2nd night.

Parking was easy. A/C noisy. Fridge very noisy. Lighting excessive, unscrewed four lightbulbs to avoid sunburn. Carpet in common areas dirty. Staff friendly and usually helpful. Main complaint was guess in adjoining room yelling profanities and pounding on wall or desk, waking me up after midnight, and staff apparently did nothing after my call for assistance. The same staff did warn guest in a DIFFERENT room about a SEPARATE noise complaint (not mine). Takeaway: Extreme budget option, and neighbors may not be of highest character. On the whole I give the staff a thumbs-up despite failure to address my noise complaint.

My room was cleaned ONCE during my 8 night stay. Plus they didn't even change the sheets - I know cuz there was a small spot on the bottom sheet and it was still there after the one time they \"cleaned\" the room. One of the exit doors was broke the entire time of my stay. At one point it was stuck open by a few inches 24 hrs a day, anyone could have come in using that door. Fitness room was not useable for my entire stay.

Zachary was extremely unfriendly and made me feel very uncomfortable from
The moment I walked in until his shift was over. He purposely gave me a room that he just checked to make sure was ready and it smelled of bleach. When I asked for some bottles of water he made sure to tell me it was for only red roof ready members and I was not. I would have happily signed up if he just asked. I felt like I was prisoner checking into a jail cell. When I called him to tell him about the the smell in the room he said he could just cancel my reservation. I told him I wanted him to make this right and just give me another room. He said they are all sold out and I said even a double? And then somehow he found one that was available. Later in the night when my key cards weren’t working he didn’t say oh no worries we can fix that. He blamed me for putting them next to my phone. My girl said thank you and he did not say you’re welcome or anything. I won’t be staying at this redroof again

hotel was clean and the room was nice and comfortable. The only downside was the noise and room service— it was quite loud at times, in the second day, my husband asked for towels we’ve been told that room service only after three days of staying. which made it hard to fully relax. Overall, not bad but there is better ones out there.

The man at the front desk at check in was rude and not friendly at all. We booked a room for 4 people and only got 1 towel and 2 washcloths. When we asked for more (enough for all of us to take a shower) we were told they were out and didn’t have anymore. The place needed a good vacuuming/cleaning. The remote to the tv didn’t work correctly and the tv would go to a blank screen so that we weren’t able to watch it. When complaining again to the morning guy at the desk he blew us off and never acknowledged we were talking to him. We do NOT recommend this hotel at all!!

You get what you pay for. I stayed for 10 days and nobody but me ever entered my room. I was told at check-in that someone would come empty my trash every 3 days - nope. Old, run-down looking room; microwave kept tripping the power strip it was plugged into and had the wrong tray so it wouldn't rotate; iron leaked water all over my shirt; TV remote battery cover missing; pillows miserably lumpy and uncomfortable; breakfast is extremely basic and limited; adhesive vinyl flooring was loose in places. Not a \"horrible\" experience but one I don't care to repeat.

Most importantly, the staff were doing the best they could. Red Roof Inn needs to invest some money to update and refurbish the hotel, and hire sufficient housekeeping staff. We were looking for a budget hotel, and have previously stayed at Red Roof. Nothing fancy, but clean and well-maintained. This location damaged their reputation.

We stayed at this property 2 different nights. Our room wasn’t ready either time. We had to wait for housekeeping to do a room for us. We weren’t offered a coffee or anything during our wait.
Our second stay was awful! The key system wasn’t working so front desk had to open our room every time we needed access. The tv didn’t work. The front desk staff tried to fix it. One channel would work but that’s it. We weren’t offered another tv or another room!
The bed on our second stay was very uncomfortable.
We stayed in many red roof hotels during our 12 day trip. Never again!

The entire property seems to be a place for active drug users to hang out. The room itself was dirty as well. With garbage piled under the bed.

Oct. 10, 2025, The pluses in the room, during the stay were. The refrigerator and microwave oven worked. And was the right size for the room. The TV had full cable. The mattress surprisingly was exceptionally comfortable. Possibly memory foam material. The individual heating unit in room, worked and was reliable. It maintained a set temperature. There was a variety of different types of food. Available for the continental breakfast in the lobby each morning. I did not experience a lot of noise while I there.

The cons were. There was not a diverter on the tub. Could only draw water for a bath. No shower option. There was a glitch with the mechanism of the entrance door. I had to request the staff's assistance to open door. When inserted, the card key didn't work right. If I needed to, I would stay at this hotel again.

The property is very dirty. The smell of urine and the stickiness of the floors was bad. As we were checking in another couple came up to the front desk complaining about the smell of urine in their room. The room floors were so dirty and sticky that we had to throw our socks in the trash when we took them off. I am aware that the hotel is pet friendly but for this reason, cleaning should be much better. Also, I dont know whos idea was it to have a cherry tree at a dog friendly hotel. Cherry pits are very toxic to dogs. Definitely not a good idea and can be a legal issue if someone's dog gets a hold of them. The tv in our room was not working when we got there. Someone had stolen the hdmi cord. The staff was very helpful. They were the only plus side to the stay. Due to the lack of cleanliness at the hotel, we skipped on breakfast.

Broken door lock made it difficult to enter room on multiple occasions. Very basic breakfast wasn't worth the stay here.
I was counseled by front desk staff due to a complaint by another guest because my dog barked a few times at 8:30 am when I left the room for a few minutes to be a responsible owner and clean up after my pet (and someone else's pet as well). It's a Red Roof Inn, for Pete's sake. Dogs bark. Fine--next time I'll just leave my dog's crap on their grass like other guests did. I was awoken at 7am due to a neighbor's yappy dogs barking, incidentally.

I've stay at this location on multiple times after a day at Saratoga but this time they put me in a room that seemed to be next to the heating /AC vent and inside the room it sounded like I was in a wind tunnel. Went downstairs and asked for a new room and when I opened the door to the new room there was a couple half naked laying on the bed. Once again went downstairs and the front desk employee gave me another room and when I opened the door the room was not made (no sheets, bedspread, towels, etc) by this time I just wanted to get some rest so just layed on the mattress and at 5am went down to get towels so I could take a quick shower and be on my way. I've always had a good experience at the RR but not this time.

The exterior of the building was in poor shape with weeds overthrowing. The wall behind the front desk had several patched and unpainted areas and the lobby and stairwell carpeting were ripped up and filthy. We would have left and found another place but it was just one night. The sink in our room was visibly dirty, the walls were scuffed, there were visible stains on the bedskirt. Such a grimey place.

Probably the worst hotel I’ve stayed at!

First thing noticed was a bad smell to the room and the wall all chewed up around the window unit, then seeing the black mold on the ceiling over the shower. The floor made my feet all black with dirt when I walked barefoot in the room. It really showed when I showered and my feet made the floor of the shower very dirty. The somewhat continental breakfast was old food. English muffin, bagel, waffle mix, coffee, tea, and that’s it. Had to ask for a bath mat, which was not provided in the room. They never changed the sheets or towels in a three day stay. The help at the front desk were complaining about too many days on and long hours. One woman was outside having a meltdown with her boss on the phone with no one tending the desk. Will not stay there again!

Budget price for reasons-you get what you pay for.

Check in was quick although was charged full amount even though stay was prepaid through Expedia. Did get a refund of errant charge.
Room had maybe been sweeped, but not vacuumed, thankfully no carpet. Toilet was running which I fixed myself. Paint/wall covering around shower was in dire need of repair/maintenance. External door lock was a bit wonky, but got it figured out in a couple days to work the first or second time I attempted to unlock it. AC was excellent and kept room good and cool. TV was good as was refrigerator in room. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance.
Just a bed to sleep in and a shower to get clean with no frills and a short, easy drive to Saratoga.

The front desk staff was either new or uninformed and had his head down on the counter, sleeping? The door to the room was not working properly and didn't open without forcefully pushing it with you entire body and also did not close properly without really slamming it. The TV did not work properly with the remote, but we finally got it working by adjusting the input buttons on the side of the TV. The drain in the tub was dirty and in need of replacement. We chose not to use the shower in this room. The toilet seat was very loose and needs tightening or replacement.

Avoid this hotel if you can. Lobby area was dirty, common areas not vacuumed, floors feel damp. Rooms are in bad shape- marks all over the walls, our door lock looked like it had been jimmied at one point. One look at the tub/shower and I decided I was cleaner already than I might be after using it. A glance under the bed was horrifying - pieces of food and other trash everywhere. Front desk staff appeared stoned - two guys discussing what they might order for dinner rather than helping customers. I could go on with more but you get the idea.

We stay here every summer for a weekend as we travel through the area. Every year our stay is great. This year, it seems things have changed. The property doesn't seem to be maintained as it should. Normal, routine things such as the door to the room, the TV, run through Roku now and down to the ice machine all were problems. Even the complimentary breakfast has diminished in variety. I did mention to some of the employees about our negative experience. They were all very sincere and genuine. The general manager, Kristi, I believe her name was, took the time to speak with me and listen to my concerns. All in all, with proper, regular maintenance, I think things can be fixed and return to the good experience we're used to receiving here during our stay.
