When you flushed the toilet, water sprayed out of the handle all over the bathroom. I tried to report it, but they lock you out of the front desk and no one is manning it. So I paid for a floor covered in toilet water.

It’s a truck stop so it’s meant to be a place just to stop and sleep. For that it serves its purpose check in was quick and simple the man was friendly enough. The bathroom was in complete shambles. Holes in the wall pipes falling out rust black mold things taped over the bath was rigged up to shower only and we needed a bath. The shower pressure was so low it took forever to wash. The bed was comfy enough and the noise level was extremely high just bring earplugs if your a light sleeper. The price point is much higher than it should be but the food place next door was very convenient. The breakfast spot was tasty and while slow the Starbucks and Pizza Hut were both good.

Trucks “engine braking” getting off the highway exit ALL NIGHT LONG, directly in front of hotel to go to the HUGE truck stop next door. Homeless had their encampment set up under stairwell 15 feet from the room and car. Bed was “lumpy”. A lovely spider met me in the bathroom during the middle of the night; thankfully, I had my shoes on, because the floor was filthy, so I was able to unalive it. Absolutely ZERO REST for this weary traveler, and a total waste of my hard/earned money. Save your sanity and your money and choose someplace else…

Owner was the opposite of hospitable at checkout

The stay began with normal check in & the room was marginal but priced appropriately so fair game early. However checkout was 11 a.m. & at 11:04 my son & I awoke to what sounded like a barrage of door break in attempts...I felt like Richard Sherman's father in law for a few brief moments. I opened the door mere seconds after the noise stopped to find no one in sight. I left the door opened & quickly began packing & informed my son we were a few minutes past our check out time & I hurriedly gathered things together as a stern female voice asked if we were extending our stay or checking out. I answered normally & apologized for the barely qualified tardiness. She just frowned & walked away. Its important to note that the facilities as a whole were in disrepair & although I95 was it's front yard , had no more than 5-7 rooms rented. I was quick to tell my son of the rudeness & gracelessness with which we were being treated. There is usually, in my experience, a protocol of notification that check out time has passed & the first one is a polite phone call or repeated calls within a 15 minute grace period. Then polite knocks that may rise in urgency if gone unresponsive. The last wld be knocks with staff opening the door for a F2F notification of intent from guests. Apparently this owner & his family went straight to the fire alarm stage of notification after only 4/5 minutes.One must also keep in mind that we had been quiet, orderly guests that hotels at this level should cherish.

Only plus was it was near I95 and convenient.
Their website advertises free coffee in lobby, there is no coffee, but a couple packs in the room. No common area and their wifi is pretty much non existent also. No towel racks in the bathroom.

Burn holes on the bed, a lot of dirt and crumbs under bed when I lifted to check for bugs, the guy who checked me out” conveniently” forgot to give me my cash deposit back when I left so I had to drive an hour back out of my way to come get it. Also, I had to wait like 20 minutes to check in because there was a sign on the door, so after about 10 minutes called the motel number and the guy answered and basically hung up on me. When I said how much longer is there going to be and he came walking from around the corner and gave me attitude and threw his hands up and said “I’m right around the corner.” Like I was supposed to know that lol oh, and also the toilet in the room was leaking. I didn’t ask to change rooms because he told me if that was the only room that was clean at the moment I so I know I would’ve had to of packed all my stuff back up and waited God knows how long for another room to open up overall I would give it 1.5 stars out of 50 mainly because the beds were pretty comfortable and the air condition worked great. But needless to say, I won’t be staying there again when I am in Kenly. I wouldn’t stay there if it was $10 a night.

We have stayed here before, on our way north & return, which is why we opted to stay this time. Check-in took no more than 5 min. Our room was basic, but clean. Being a one night stay, with a late arrival, nothing more can be added to rate the room other than it was clean and basically stocked with towels, wash rags and a coffee maker. The area is nice and right next door to Kenley-95 truck stop. It is more like an over the road museum with a restaurant, Wendy’s, Subway, Dairy Queen, Caribou Coffee Shop, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, convenience store, gift/souvenir store, as well as anything that would be needed by over the road trucking. It’s worth a visit.

The first room had a gap between the floor and the bottom of the door big enough for me to see outside or for any type of bug, lizard, snake or rat to come in, and the pillows were yellow like old smoke stains. The second room's door wasnt even closed so i felt unsafe walking into the room. We finally got a third room and with the way the wall mirror is positioned, I could see outside on the balcony from inside the room; so I knew that if someone stood on the balcony and looked into the room from the gap in the curtain, they could see me laying down from the mirror. There was also strands of hair throughout the room. It was late and I had no choice but to stay there or sleep in my car and I was CLOSE to staying in my car with my daughter. We ended up sleeping with our clothes on, on top of the blankets and pulling the curtain over the door handle so no one could see inside the room. Never, ever, ever again will I stay at this hotel.

Worst hotel ever

This was by far the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. The rooms are disgusting and look nothing like the online pictures. If you want new towels, you have to give them your dirty ones so they can wash them and then they will bring them back! We had 2 adults and 2 children in our room and they refused to give us more than 2 towels. They have absolutely nothing open as stated online. No pool, no lobby, nothing. One member of the staff actually told us to just check out if we don’t like it and hung up when we called to ask for something during our stay. The room itself is disgusting. The toilet leaks all over when flushed. The sink will not shut off. The toilet is so old and rusty. The walls are dirty and look like they are falling apart. I wouldn’t even stay here again if they gave it to me for free. Save yourself the drama and stay far away from this hotel!

Worth what you're paying for.

The room was really nice for the price, however our room was not serviced for a majority of the trip. There was a day where we declined room service because we were still in our room and not ready to leave yet, however they did not return after that. We also requested new towels as we were staying for five nights, and we were told that we received them, however that never happened.

We love staying here when traveling back home going down south. We never stay anywhere else. It’s the cleanest red roof inn even with it being pet friendly. The water is also nice and hot for the shower and very cold for the sink. Nothing is ever sticky. Being off of 95 if you stay in the front of the hotel it can be a little noisier but not to where you can’t sleep. You can’t hear anything if you’re in one of the back rooms. But great price, great location, safe, fairly quiet, clean and we will continue to come back!
