2/10 Terrible

It is absolutely, positively SHAMEFUL of Travelocity / Expedia to keep Red Carpet Inn / Scottish Inn off Route 10 in Whippany NJ on its travel websites. This is NOT even a 1 star hotel! It is used as a homeless shelter not only for good people just temporarily in a tough spot but for drug addicts and criminals.
Imagine - I spoke to someone upon leaving and there are young families with babies there, getting sick from the amount of mold and mildew in all the carpeting! Getting ill from the bad water. The young woman I spoke to was upset that the State of New Jersey had the nerve to send her there to stay after losing her home from a job loss - so that tells you the owners are getting kickbacks from the State and don't care to keep the property nice for anyone, much less world weary travelers.
If I was allowed to upload more photos, I would! I have so many on the unsafe, unclean conditions of the rooms, the buildings, the attitude of the family who owns and runs the place. I wanted to cancel and get another place before going there after reading the reviews but the refund would have taken 7 to 10 days, and money was needed to cover other travel for a memorial service between paychecks.
All I can say is this is false advertising! NONE of the photos posted by the owners on Travelocity or elsewhere are the actual conditions of the rooms! Do NOT book here! I will be filing complaints to whomever oversees travel hotels, and see if that makes Travelocity do something.
